I agree. That is an interesting reason to switch. Forget about the differences in the network, eh? You'd rather have poor reception and calls dropped left and right? And would you prefer that Verizon bring a product to market that isn't ready and has bugs ... so people will run into the retail stores irate with complaints about the bugs ... and come here to complain about them also?
Must be my warped way of thinking ... but as far as I'm concerned, kudos and good job Verizon ... for delaying the 9650 and trying to make sure that you come out with a quality product!
