Verizon Wireless stores opening at 6AM on November 6th?
You know what November 6th is, right? It’s DROID day baby. And we don’t just mean the Motorola DROID. Alongside Schaumburg’s finest, HTC’s Droid Eris will go on sale as well and what better way to maximize sales than to have stores open early? Super early if one of our connects is to be believed: 6AM sharp.
Why all the motohaters?
My E815 was the best phone I’ve ever had, and my only Moto, the Droid will be my second.
Hi, I am an internet chat room.
2) Thanks for sharing your anecdotal experience with motorola. As we know with anecdotal experiences, if they happen to one person, they’ve happened to everyone. Thus, everyone who has ever had a moto phone thought it was the best they ever had. With that in mind, I too am now wondering: Why all the motohaters?

Maybe I just notice it more because I’m a girl. A girl who gets around. I’ve had many lovers; starting with the Amiga….
Although I’ve been spurned by crappy overpriced mac hardware over the years, I love my iPod touch and mbp.
But I also love my Linux and XP boxes. A girl needs a variety of toys in her chest…. In their own ways, each is a celebration of what humans can do. Some humans are j a little smarter and easier to like than others.
I would buy an iPhone, but prefer a phone that actually allows me to make phone calls to a pretty face plate.
Perhaps more importantly, I’m moving to android because open development is something I believe in and want to support. I think that these offerings by Verizon, though imperfect, will make me sweat and enhance my tattoo, even if I do occasionally get my thong in a bunch over their inherent memory limitations.
No animal is more equal than others, gentlemen.
Gawd, I hope this doesn’t give Mr. Tee a boner….

well sony fan boy I do like MOTO, dont u do it?
dont u like android??
I used to work with Motorola, not on the phone side of things myself but I did deal with some of the phone people… they were idiots. Complete idiots. Stuff like, shipments of parts would come in to our building for the phone people… so we’d send it to them, and then they would send it back because “it wasn’t theirs”… it was freakin’ RAZR bodies… how was it not theirs?!
Sorry. They still anger me to this day.
Anyways, if the VZW stores do open at 6am on the 6th I may have to stop by before I go about my day.
Would Verizon.com start at midnite? Or does it start the same time as it’s stores?
anyone think it will be worth waiting until black friday sales?
Im concerned about inventory for those of us that cant make it to the store that morning or until late in the afternoon. I was talking with a VZW rep that stated when the HTC Imagio came in they only received 6 units and they were sold out quickly. I hope with the hype of the Droid that there will be a few Dozen or more units.
Also, I plan on adding a line and I’ll use that to get the Droid. Will Best Buy do the add a line and allow me to pre order the Droid, anyone know?

Like I siad before… this phone rocks, I am posting on bgr right now with no lag and have only charged it once since when I received it on Tuesday. I have very little expierence with using an iphone so I have no way to compare the two devices. I am using the slide keyboard to type this and it works nice, not perfect. The touch screen works awesome, I am just use to my curve so I am still use to using a physical keyboard.
how do you have it already? I’m jealous
Test unit
I work for vzw, and we got word today our store in MI will be opening at 7am and every rep will be working it.
Suckas I live in hawaii do waiting in line is nice and warm baby ha ha
This phone is awesome. I’m using it right now, outside of a little town 45 min from grand rapids mi. 3g net work is awsome. Non excisting with Iphone go verizon.
A vzw rep let me see one today after I asked if they had one behind the counter. It is too cool. I have email hosted with google apps, so this is perfect. Virtual keyboard is easy to use, as is the physical keyboard (I don’t have small hands). I didn’t want to give it back. My blackberry curve has been the best phone I have ever owned (had treos, moto q), and I am making the jump. I really wanted to like the storm 2, but I will be buying the droid. Maybe rim will get it right next time. Like any phone, its all in what you need. The vzw reps said the storm 2 would be their next phone.
I was just at a large verizon store in mayfield hts ohio and none of the idiots working there heard anything about the store opening at 6am on friday, is that just a rumor or what?
Two San Diego stores have confirmed a 7AM opening on Friday. FYI.
its up to the district manger and the store manager. my location is opening at 8am. normal hours are 9a.m
Wack… BlackBerry is the best smartphone, well I guess that’s my opinion.
By the way, what’s good about this device. The Storm2 is the best device so far for me that’s the “perfect storm” so whatever.
i work at a maryland CORPORATE store and we will be opening up at 7am november 6th…
Technically, no one is stuck with any company. All you have to do is buy your way out, like I did. Sure, I left Verizon for AT&T to get an iPhone and I’m glad I did…for the phone. The network is still pretty bad, although not as bad as most people say. The biggest problem for Verizon was their phone slection, or lack there of. They tried with the Storm, and we all know where that got them. Let’s hope they don’t blow it with the Droid….
