Is the fact that this phone is Rev.0, not Rev.A or Rev.A upgradeable a big deal?

What exactly is Rev. A? I asked a person from Verizon Wireless on the phone, and she said that Rev. A means that it isn't in stores yet. She also said that once it's available in stores then Rev. A will be taken off.

Rev-A means it has faster internet and data speed capability. The curve will be Rev-O for both Verizon and Sprint.

Rev. A is actually in reference to the type of signal the phone is able to send and receive.

This is short for CDMA2000 1xEV-DO Revision A

Good writeups on CDMA2000 and EV-DO can be found at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CDMA2000 » and
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution-Data_Optimized »

All Sprint, Verizon, Telus(mobility), Bell(mobility), Alltel, Cricket, MetroPCS phones(among others) are CDMA.

Oh trust me that is not going to be the reason I don't get a phone. I just got my curved ordered, but it won't be shipped until Monday, for a really really good low price 😁

I know. That person didn't know what they were talking about at all. When I asked her she was like I think it means that it's not in stores yet. Lol. When I first asked her she thought I was saying Red A. Haha.
I got my phone ordered though, it should be here tues or weds, depending if it gets sent out today or Monday.
