From the press release:

"Get where you need to go with Google Maps Navigation (Beta): DROID is the first device with Google Maps Navigation, providing turn-by-turn voice guidance as a free feature of Google Maps. It’s powered by Google and connected to the Internet. Use voice shortcuts and simply say “Navigate to [your destination],” and you’ll be on your way. See live traffic, use Street View or satellite imagery to view your route, and get access to the most recent maps and business information from Google Maps without ever needing to update your device"

It appears it comes with free GPS Nav from Google, so yes, it's unlocked.

um, this is RIM's UI with a VZW wallpaper. I lol'd at you..

Wow.

The screen resolution on the Dare is not 320x240. It is 320x400 and is actually a decent size. Please check your facts.

Once again, there have been 3G Blackberry's on VZW and Sprint for over a year now. So this won't be their first 3G device.

Sorry to make you look like a fool.

- If it's your NE2, then you receive both NE2 and $100 data credit. ($150-200 off the 2yr price).

- Secondary lines (both new and upgrade) receive a $50 data credit.

- Annual upgrade does not receive a data credit.

Hope this helps!

From what I've gathered, LTE is an IP based network while EVDO is not. I'd be willing to wait for this over a simple speed upgrade.

"...and allowed a non-crippled phone, which is what Apple asked them to do..."

The iPhone is one of the most crippled phones out there.

I lol'd at your comment.

verizon's backup assistant is free as well. you don't actually have to pay your bill online. you would just need to register your account online, which is free, of course. you can choose to continue to receive paper bills during registration.
