"C'mon man... just give what you have heard... I won't hold you to it" I wonder how many times that has been said? Couple that to the day and age of the net PLUS FCC leaks and you have yourself a real BUZZ that gets created without any official company involvement.
They have gone as far as mentioning officially that it will be out sometime late this year... and according to my calender they are still on schedule.
You can't get 2 out of 10 employees to give you the same info because there is no OFFICIAL info to give so they are all guessing according to what they know (OR DON'T KNOW  )
You can let the leaks & rumors and unofficial info get to you... you can get frustrated that the other company has it first but IMHO I believe that there is a reason that we don't have it or know when we will. If it would help Verizon... they would be the first to let us know... that's called capitalism with it's marketing sector firing on all cylinders.
Answer this... (but not emotionally or with bias)
Why would they keep this phone or release info from us if it were ready to go?

I did not question why they haven't released the 6800 did I ?
I just asked why do the employees have to make up stories or lie
when you ask them a question. I wasn't just talking about the 18 year
old hourly employee in the store, I have had 45 year old Regional Mgrs
lie right to my face. Lying doesn't have anything to do with capitalism
or marketing firing on all cylinders - it has to do with lack of character.
I don't lie to my customers and VZW doesn't need to lie to me.
My hands aren't shaking to get the phone, they can put it out whenever.
I have a like new 6700 running a great WM6 rom and it works fine.
