I bought an unopened Droid Incredible about a month ago from someone on Craigslist to tide me over until the new 4G Droids and hopefully 4G Iphone come out. I don't want to be under contract with a VCR.
...of course, when 4G comes to my area, who the hell knows.
ADD 5,200 to the post count you see, thank you.

81, what are your thoughts on this and should i still get the thunderbolt?
Depends on if you want the new features. The only one that looked real interesting was htc watch which is a media streamer. Ie movies. Netflix is working on an android app so that may be a mute feature. Imo, the biggest reason to wait for 3 would be the increased hardware profile. Thunderbolt is still a solid phone.
It all depends on how long you want to wait to get the newest and greatest. I'd rather have the hardware than have sense.

latest and greatest don't matter to me. i just want a phone that won't be outta date after a year. lol.

Considering the thundbolt is a warmed over evo, its already a year old. Still a good phone but if i was in the market today, i'd wait and get a dual core. But i already have a super phone. If you dont want to wait, you'll still be happy with the bolt
i'll wait till my crapberry craps out and go from there

looks like the droid Incredibile 2 is out, but doesn't seem that exciting. doesn't even appear to be a 4g phone. not sure why anyone would buy it.
phone looks to militaryish and seems like no front face video cam
i don't get all the love for front facing camera's. only time i used mine was when we first picked up the evo's and we were trying stuff out. i'd rather have a single high quaility rear cam or a faster processor, or more memory or.....

I'd like to get a smart phone, but I don't like the popo.

i disabled it and keep my gps/wifi off. overall, it doesn't really bother me.
ok, but:
However, even if users disable location services, the iPhone and Android phones are believed to continue storing locations of cell towers and wi-fi networks in what is known as a "neighbour list".
Google's list is limited to the most recent 50 cell masts and 200 wi-fi networks, while Apple's list is retained for up to a year. Sources close to Apple have suggested the long-term retention may be an error which it will correct in a future software update.
Privacy advocates fear that although the data is anonymised, the Apple data is not encrypted and could be misused by law enforcement or others who wanted to capture information about someone's movements.
One security researcher, Alex Levinson of Katana Forensics, said on Thursday that US law enforcement had already made use of the location data recorded by the iPhone in investigations.
Some police forces, such as those in Michigan, already carry readers that can copy all the files from a smartphone even if it is protected with a password, and that it has been used on motorists stopped for minor traffic violations. The American Civil Liberties Union says such examination amounts to an "unreasonable search", which would be illegal in the US.
