The thing I am worried about is that I am available for an upgrade on July 20th. Thats like 7 days after the second shipment comes in. I get back from Europe on July 28th. Will they already be sold out again 15 days later? By that time will there already be new phones? I know the Droid X is slotted for sometime in July.... but that thing is a fucking beast. No way do I want a phone that big. Is the Moto Droid 2 slotted for this summer or fall???

I mean I technically dont need anything better than the Incredible. Hell I probably dont need anyhthing much better than the Eris.

Porkchop, if I was you, I would wait. There are some heavy hitters coming out this summer.

I'm waiting out this generation. I'm patient enough to wait out for the longer battery life and larger on phone storage that will be the next battleground for future phones.

Really, battery life isnt that bad on most of these phones. My mytouch started out its life not even being able make an 8 hour day without battery warnings popping up, dealt with that for half a week, then I did some quick research and with 2 apps and some settings my phone with moderate use (10-20 texts, a few web page loads, constant time checks, and a few 1-5 minute calls) I was able to extend my battery life to around 70% remaining by the time I plug it in at the end of the day.

With heavy use, basically being used for an 8 hour period with little down time will leave me with a 40-50% battery

Damn. Just read the review on the Droid X. They said it makes the Incredible look like a bench warmer. Might have to take this back before my 30 days runs out.

Yea I'm afraid if you're going to try and stay ahead of this curve, you may be changing phones a lot! Every time I think that they've maxed it out for a while... *BANG* comes another phone even cooler than the last! The EVO is no joke either and that screen is ridiculous!!! Hey Trip download that PTT app I sent you and send it to Brandon, it's pretty cool! Oh and me and the gf downloaded a video conferencing app that is cool as hell last night as well. Two cameras FTW!

So true. It's funny because the iPhone was themes advanced technology for such a long time, like two fucking years, and now every week a new badass phone comes out.

I think ill keep the Incredible and pass it down to the wife once her ATT contract runs out in Nov. Then I can get the new hawtness. By then phones will be able to give blowjobs.

Have you seen the size of the Droid X??? Its fucking huge. It would be almost uncomfortable to carry around in your pocket.

I hate pockets. I wear everything on my belt, like Batman. That size phone would be awesome for me.
