I keep seeing this both here and HoFo that it is held up for some sort of "testing".. I am continually perplexed by this for a couple of reasons.

First I don't understand what there is to "test". This phone is a vanilla WM6 device and there doesn't appear to be any customizations other than the boot splash and the banner on the home screen. Couple of 3rd party applications for voice dialing and Picsel, but that's it.

Second, what would be the outcome of such testing? They can't really change the hardware.. MAYBE it's firmware but we all know Verizon releases phones and then shortly thereafter you get a firmware update.

I've been using this phone for 2 weeks.. no signal problems, no EVDO problems, no application programs... really it works rather well. I think I had to reset it once but all WM devices need that from time to time.
