I think VZW is banking that people genuinely interested in purchasing a device will be attracted enough by the tease. I get the impression that your friend doesn't fall under that category.

THIS is what I mean by engadget could suffer a bit more journalistic quality.
Still, it got me to click a link, and that's what it's all about, no?
