actually if you read though that thread you would notice that its an inquire about the release hint ("release date?"), my thread is telling you and showing you valid proof of the release date on top of additional stuff like pre-paid option will be available soon.
so how about actually reading stuff first before running at the mouth. thanks for your input.

good to see a more concrete confirmation.

at least someone gets the idea of this thread... thanks orateam

Just got an email that VZW local stores are starting to receive their orders for the launch of the Fascinate and employee's are doing their training for the phone.

Fascinate still on for the 9/9 release, just took my device training today....

The phone is available online today! and instore tomorrow as i stated....
Now Verizon offering the buy one get one free promo too.
Buy the fascinate for $299 and get a $100 mail-in-rebate = $199, then the second one is $100 with $100 mail-in-rebate = $0. So you'll be spending $399 with $200 mail-in-rebate.

Looks like Gingerbread is confirmed (update: Just a Samsung copy-paste error)

As per Samsung Galaxy S Support on Twitter:
twitter .com/GalaxySsupport/status/15064053055492096
Sorry for the link
I wonder when this will be released then, if it's confirmed. Considering an official 2.2 build isn't even out yet
They are shipping 2.2 and going straight to gingerbread. Too many issues with froyo

I think you are mis reading the tweet.
"@tsytsma US Galaxy S line to 2.3 has been made & we aren't prepared to discuss this at this time. ^Sabrina"
I read this as they have made their statement on US GS 2.3 prior and they are not prepared to discuss it further. IMHO but would be sweet if it is the other way around.

Actually, I think this "Sabrina" bot at the Samsung Twitter is making a huge typo by pasting in a fragment of the boilerplate comment they have been tweeting all week. Here is an example of that boilerplate from yesterday:
@OrangeRafi No official statement about updating US Galaxy S line to 2.3 has been made & we aren't prepared to discuss this at this time.

Yup. The Samsung Twitter site now confirms that the comment was truncated:

So in other words, Samsung is just repeating its denial that any announcement about Gingerbread has been made.

Update: thread opened for anyone that wants to contribute more to the bounty!
Update 2: bounty is now over $2,000. See here
Hack n Mod already has a prompted $1500 bounty, assuming they can find others to add to the bounty for this project.

There's A LOT of money being offered right now.
On the original slickdeals thread where this broke open, over $1500 was offered up there too.

They are working on a gingerbread version, then going to make CM7 for it. Then if they get time they will get honeycomb onto it, with the final project to get ICS on there.

I'm in for donation! I know some already put up the prize. I know a lot of "new" HP touchpad owners like me willing to chip in a dollar or more to put some more prizes and hopefully speed up the porting
Where can I donate to???
I never managed to get one of the hp touchpads when they were going cheap in the UK.
a few places are showing as in stock, but at the full price still.
If i manage to get my hands on one I will be donating to the bounty.
Gonna try my luck tomorrow morning, hope i can't get a 16G one.
I want one for 99 Bucks!
Where do I get it?
Does somebody know of any online store that sells it? Maybe in europa?

We were all having some fun and blowing off steam...no offense!!! But tell me..how did you miss $300 worth of unauthorized app purchases?
Google sent out an email. Some lawsuit about kids charging parents accounts from 2011 to 2014, you have to go you your account page and check which apps you say we're purchased without your consent. Then they review them and refund them. I don't think they review anything. They just refunded all of man
Fraud is always fraud even if they aren't checking.
That's probably something I wouldn't posted about on a forum. Like the post above this is certainly fraud.

Annnnnnnd that's where you crossed the line. We don't condone fraud 'round these parts. Sure, Google can afford it, but if everyone did that maybe they couldn't afford to give away all the things they do, not to mention IT'S WRONG.

Great news guys you're gonna swallow your words about lollipop and you are gonna love it
By all means, please keep sharing who gets invites. Even better if you use the same handle on the Motorola forums!
Everyone in this thread should be ashamed. You are breaking NDA with Moto by talking about this in public. I do hope that you are removed from the soak and kicked out of the MFN.
It says we aren't allowed to discuss what is actually in the soak test, not that we can't mention it exists.

You are wrong. If you join the soak, you are saying you will not talk about it in public, period. You also electronically sign an NDA stating the same thing when you originally sign up for the MFN.
