that is awesome though the guys at Nokia are very intelligent and normally know what they are talking about I'm still doubtful although if VZW is carrying it the wait probably has to do with destroying its bluetooth and worse yet its memory card capabilities. Oh btw does anyone know if VZW were to carry this would it be possible for me to get a non-VZW version and activate it fully functional with VZW?

Some things with Get-It-Now and mobile web are not working 100% Most of that might work once the phone is lauched. If not you will have to have the phone reflashed to have those things to work when the phone comes out.

Reflashing (software upgrades) in VZW stores are always free. It might disable some of the bluetooth features, but it is unknown at this time.

Verizon Wireless, Sprint, Alltel can't launch the phone until mid June anyway. So we will probably know more about the phone for these providers then.

Tier II providers (regional) like US Cellular, Midwest Wireless, Rural Celluar, Western Wireless, Cellular South, Metro PCS and others get the phone first once the phone was launched by Midwest Wireless and Cellular South they get 60 days before the Tier I (national) providers Alltel, Verizon, Sprint PCS.

I don't know about Tier III (local) providers like Snake River PCS, CC Communications, Cellular 29 Plus and many others.
