I thought I would share this with you all. It's kinda lulzfull that people know who we are.

I am currently with T-Mobile, but am more than likely going to switch to Verizon when they become AT&T-Mobile late on this year as I hate everything that is ATT and refuse to give them my money. So anyways here's the story. Note that I am ME and the Verizon guy is VZW, and that it's kinda emelished for the lolz, but this conversation did genuinely happen.

Me-Oh hai, I'ma lookin at switching from T-Mobile to you guys and would like to ask about a Thunderbolt and see what kind of packages you all offer.

VZW-KK coolio. The T-bolt is awesome, but kinda expensive...might I reccomend the !FASCINATE!?

Me-TROLOLOL it doesn't haz froyoz!

VZW-BUT IT'S COMING! I SWEAR.

Me-....-.-....bro, I am a moderator at XDA developers...I know stuff.

Then the entire conversation changed.

VZW-...wow really? I visit XDA all the time! I used to have a Fascinate but I got tired of waiting for OTA Froyo so I went with the Thunderbolt as soon as it came out. I still have my Fascinate though and I use the newest Superclean ROM. What board do you moderate?

Me-....the HTC Rose...and the Fascinate.

VZW-Really?

Me-Yeah...names ashasaur.

VZW-DUDE. I KNOW YOU. MY NAME IS-(deleted cause he doesn't want me to put it here). I like what you did with the trolling.

Me-Yeah that stuff is kinda outta control but I am working on it.

VZW-Yeah that times_infinity dude really trolled everyone bad, I thought you where gonna ban him.

Me-Naaaahh. We are all cool.

VZW-So yeah, the Fascinate SHOULD be getting Froyo within 2 months...but again, we have hearing that for the last year almost.

Me-That's why I want to go with the Thunderbolt, because of good updates and solid HTC hardware.

VZW-Well I have to say that I admire all the devs at XDA, and that I love the custom ROMs for the Fascinate. I have used basically every version of SC that has come out and love it to death.

Me-Yeah I hear that SC is a pretty boss ROM.

*20 minutes of going on about plans and stuff*

Me-I do believe I am going to switch here in about a month.

VZW-Awesome, we look forward to having you.

Me-Word.

Anyways, this HONEST TO GOD took place. I was geeking out the entire time over the fact that someone out there knows who we are. Anyways, that's my story. Thoughts?

Too cool. I can imagine everyone else in the near vicinity just stopping and shocked at what they could be hearing. Not all Verizon reps are as 'unenlightened' as we might have believed to be the case many times :)

Each time he has to pus the Fascinate, it's probably like a knife through the heart :p

It's funny about that Froyo stuff given that it was really just two days away. I'd wait for Droid Charge if anything. The T-bolt sucks battery on 4G and apparently it's a hardware issue with the chips inside it not playing nice with each other.
