Purephase: Take a chill pill. First off, I'm not on here 24 hours a day like you and secondly, I am looking for a more EXACT DATE. So before you "serious" everyone on here why not help out.

Whatever you might think, I'm not here all the time either. Add to that, I'm in Canada so I'm not even that familiar with US carrier release dates. But, the VZW information is everywhere. They're the largest CDMA carrier in North America and information about the Curve on VZW both here, Boy Genius, Engadget, Howard Forums, Crackberry etc. is so rampant that it's hard to imagine that anyone has missed it by this point.

There is no more information about the release in May. It is the official word at this point. Sorry for pointing to the official source material for all this. Next time I'll know better.

So there you have...If I were betting I would bet that most people will not have this device until June.
Well from a business perspective, the sooner into May the better, so they may show good sales for the 2nd QT which would end June 30.

I just hope that it's in early May, and when I mean early May, I mean like Before WES begins! I want to be sporting one of these bad boys when i go to the conference. At least i'll have my Sprint Curve by then.. I just hope it aint after, but who knows, I got my grain of salt in hand.

I doubt that that is true...seeing as how it's all over their rebate forms now. And allegedly it was announced at CITA that it's coming out on April 30th.

Several new phones spotted on Verizon's rebate form (Phone Arena)

more than likely the classic silver... there is a black version but i doubt it wont come out till later in an effort to boost sales similar to what vzw did with the pink pearl and the red 8800
