...it is truly astounding how little Verizon sales people know, and how willing they are to BS!

I was visiting a business that is next door to a Verizon Wireless store today, and decided to add to my frustration level by going in and asking questions about the i760. I spoke to 4 different sales people, and asked what was coming down the pike in the PDAphone arena.

I was both pleased and surprised that all 4 had heard of the i760 (they all also mentioned the Blackberry 8800). However, when I asked about release dates for the i760, I got the typical crap: 4 different answers. One rep said that it "might be out in June-July", another said "this summer", a third said "3rd quarter", and the last said "4th quarter". And of course, each of the four made their pronouncements as if they had the inside scoop. I suppose that I should be happy that they agreed on 'sometime this year'!

Sigh... pretty much what I expected, but still frustrating.
