Hey rhlitt, You said you saw an xv6800 in the Verizon store? Where is this store. All of the stores that I have been in are just now admitting that the phone actually exists. Was it a display model?

Thanks for the info on the i-760..... decisions, decisions....

Hi...I was shown both the XV6800 and the SCH-i760 at the Verizon store inside our local Circuit City. Nobody else seemed to have these in my area.

Where is this Circuit City located? Maybe I should call around to my local Verizon Stores to see if any of them have one yet.

Has anyone else seen an xv6800 in a Verizon store yet?

Don't hold your breath--I'm sure it will be a bit of a wait for Verizon to release something any better than the 6800. Any PC phone is not going to pass "testing" in a timely manner, because it needs a lot of crippling to undo the stock features of WM so that VZ can sell them back to us. We should be getting a VGA phone about 6 months to a year after everyone else has one.

Those are dummy models . They don't work , it is just the outside shell of the
phone,no guts inside. It's a display model so they can show you what
they look like (size,weight ,colors,etc.). All the stores should have them now.
The store can't show the real phones untill they are released.

What happened to the Nov 16th date Engadget posted? Is it bogus or does that seem like a legitimate date?

Na, I got back on. Our "SUPER CYLON OVERLORD" moderator must have woke up with less pimples one day, felt better about himself and took mercy on me.

Yeah , but he said Sunday night that the 11/2 online date wasn't firm
as of Sunday night. The in store date 11/16 was still firm at that time.
