- A rumor that has been going on for a while. Now, honestly, can you see thousands of people getting their brand new phone, opening it up and not being able to use it for days? Can you say PR NIGHTMARE?02-05-2011 03:45 PMLike 0

Probably a rumor started by an fanboi of AT&T or Droids just to get people worked up over nothing.
Besides, Verizon' systems are going to be taxed enough on launch day with people buying in stores - do you think they'd be stupid enough to make it worse by not allowing pre-orders to not activate when they get their phones02-05-2011 03:57 PMLike 0 - [QUOTE=kch50428;1666822]No, I don't believe because it's bovine squeeze.

But all Verizon employees should have had the iPhone training... even if it's not release day, they should know that stuff.

- My friend at the vzw store said they can be activated as soon as you get them. And the Apple store I just left said the same thing. We are good to go!shipwrestler125 likes this.02-05-2011 04:31 PMLike 1
- Plus, since I bet half of these first iPhones are from a feature phone, earlier access to higher fees!02-05-2011 04:31 PMLike 0

Since it has? I think we get it, we can activate it.
And I would also go right to Apple for any support issues. You can even call them in your first 90 days (or 2 years if you buy Apple Care). They don't care where you bought it, heck, they don't even care IF you bought it or got it as a door prize, they will help you. It is one of their products. You can make an appointment for the Genius Bar prior to going in to a store, which I HIGHLY recommend. There will be lines and wait, especially during peak times.
Easiest way to make an appointment is to visit:
Apple Retail Store
Find your store, select it, then on the store's page, click "Make a reservation"
This can also be done from your iPhone. Yes, there's an app for that.
Apple Store for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad on the iTunes App Store02-05-2011 06:37 PMLike 0 - I for one would believe this IF iTunes had not already been updated to support the CDMA iPhone. Since it has? I think we get it, we can activate it.

Closest Apple store for me is a 2 hour drive North or South.... if I have a defective device issue I can get assistance at any 1 of 3 corporate Verizon stores nearby.02-05-2011 06:42 PMLike 0 -
With Sprint if you order online you have to return the phone that way if it is defective rather than go to a store as I understand it. I never had a prob.
With Verizon can you buy online and go to a store to get a new one if there is a warranty issue? (That is even assuming they have them in stock, and are not sold out.)02-05-2011 06:48 PMLike 0 - Let's see what happens Monday for Verizon pr sake we should be able to activate
