Yay! I switched form VZW to ATT in october after 7 years with them because of their terrible phone selection! I paid that ETF because i didn't want to wait till june and i still don't regret it, but if i get the money back i'll be even happier! The only reason i was still under contract was because of a plan change anyway - i hadn't bought a phone in 2 years because nothing interested me! I've got a Tilt now and i'm stoked. -Taylor
@dave The HTC one of what? I bought my verizon xv6700 over two years ago, and saw spy shots of the 6800 over 1 year ago. I waited and waited and waited for that phone to come out, and watched as AT&T came out with the 8525, the 6800's cousin, long before i heard any word about the 6800's release date. Rumors came up that the 6800 was supposed to come out last summer, and more spy shots showed up. It showed up on roadmaps and leaked powerpoints, and i kept waiting. It was supposed to come out at the beginning of august last year, and i was waiting, cash in hand, for that magical day. August came and went, with no 6800. Finally AT&T announced the Tilt, the third in the line of phones that started with the 8125. The 6800 would have only been the second generation from that same line, and not only was it not even out yet, but AT&T was to release their THIRD generation of that phone before VZW could get the second gen model out the door. By that point waiting seemed pointless - why wait for failed release dates over and over again, when, even once that phone did come out, it would be a generation behind AT&T? There was no point. I left Verizon after 7 years because their phones just plain suck.
I did wait for the next HTC model, i waited 11 months, and it never came. -Taylor
Since you have a Tilt with AT&T you can sue HTC in with the Class Action on the video drivers and since your an ex-Verizon customer, you can sue with the Class Action of the ETF. God Bless America.
