Hey, its VZW's decision and I made my opinion known via a letter to customer service (address on the VZW web site). VZW has great service and great support and they made a crummy decision that makes some of their customers feel less than important.


Not a slap in the face to our customers, heck, I'm one of our customers, and I don't mind having to wait a few months. Like I said before, the infrastructure and supply isn't available to offer this phone as a customer release. It was offered to 50 or so companies a few months early.
