On 09-01-2010 09:39 AM I pondered.....

 

 

 

I wonder if these "early deliveries" may be VerizonW  ee's giving us hope. I haven't heard anything yet.

 

 

Looks like I'll have to be one of the "unlucky ones". I just hope it is in fact new and not one returned due to problems.

 

 

I joined this community to learn about the phone & apps. All the messages of early d's took my mind off the prize, the DROID X! I've been with Verizon Wireless over 20 years now and think they are a pretty good company. They've come thru for me several times when I needed them.

Copied from a search for "Where's my Droid" on google just now.

 

Amazing "Wheres my Droid" story

So last friday I was driving to an inner city school where I live and I was using GPS because I didnt know how to get there. I was picking up my brother who was proctoring exams for summer school that day and his car was in the shop. I had to go into the school to get him. When we came out my window was smashed and my phone, laptop and bluetooth were gone.

I was immediatley crushed until I realized my GPS was still on. Using my brothers iPhone I texted the "Wheres my Droid" password to my phone. Now with the iPhone I couldn't get the link to google maps to work but I did get the Long/Lat coordinates and using a computer and google maps I was able to pinpoint the location of my things to the cops. In less than an hour the police had all my things. I had to wait till today to get everything back from evidence.

The would be robber was a student who had just finished his exam, they would not release his name due to his age. He must have seen my laptop through the window and decided to snag it.

I called my local news paper to tell them what happened but I have yet to see it in the police blotter, which isn't surprising because they report less than half of crimes in the area.

I love this phone

Assume if you text the password to your phone from someone elses phone it will return the GPS coordinates - should you lose it.
