Verizon Drops the Ball on the Pearl !!! VZW still cant keep a promise ?
Well guess what, now they are saying the date has slipped and they dont know when.

Admittedly, that's a lot better than Microsoft (whose total delays f...

VZW certainly isn't perfect, but I'd rather deal with their set of problems than the set of problems offered by other carriers. I know this from bitter experience. 😕
In the end, that's pretty much all you can do... pick the carrier that sucks the least. Not fun to say, but it's true.
And when the Pearl 2 shows up (and the Venus, and the Voyager, and the Q9c, Treo 755p, U900 and whatever else), ppl will forget that they were even ...
