I feel like they really may not have a date yet.  The Samsung Note 4 had just came out on 10/23/14 (which was late from when it was supposed to come out in America).  I think they are going to wait until the hype comes off that phone before realising another one.  I think it is a bad business desision to realise another phone right after the people just bought their new Notes.  They would have a lot of people upset (verses just one, who hasn't bought a new phone yet). If you want the new phone then you have to hang in there until the phone comes out (if they even decide to sell it).  You cannot get mad at a company that is still waiting to make the decision for the launch date.  It would be cool to have the new Note phone (I am a samsung user myself), but we all need to wait our turn.

As for MVL, If you get sick of waiting, you get the Note 4, or you can leave and go to AT&T.  I promise your coverage will not be as good.  Also, If your discount is really that good then then why are with Verizon for 10 years.  I think you know AT&T is not a good company!

Verizon is 3 weeks late to release this phone, and their complete lack of information is what is making so many people mad. They have handled this launch very poorly, and I feel they deserve to be called out for it. It has also been 6 weeks now since the Note 4 was released, all the people that had to have that phone have probably already bought it, and those of us that that want the Note Edge waited, so I don't see the harm in releasing it now.  Verizon sure didn't have a problem releasing the Droid Turbo just a week after the Note 4, so your theory about it being bad business to release another device so soon doesn't really hold up.

As for not leaving for At&t, you are right, I have heard horror stories about them and am reluctant to switch, but then again, Verizon doesn't have the best reputation either, so its basically a choice of one evil corporation over another.  I also get a discount on my Verizon service, and switching is a hassle.  However, I can almost guarantee At&t will have better coverage at my house, as I don't get any Verizon coverage at home, even though I am within 2 miles of downtown Denver, and I had to get a network extender just to send and receive calls and texts.

there have been phones in the past that verizon completely passes up, and others that they launch months later. i understand that when you want a certain device and they don't immediately offer it, it's frustrating. however, i'm just letting you know that this is fairly typical of verizon. just look at the nexus right now.

I disagree with you.  It does hold up.  The Turbo is a Motorola phone not a galaxy.  That is what makes my arguement make more since.  If they bring out 1 Motorola phone and then bring out another one a few weeks later then I would make the same point. Would say it is not ok to bring out the new Iphone 6 then the Note 4. It is the same concept. Different companies make it, so it has a different fan base.

As far as with your AT&T statement, It is a whole hassel to switch and if you think it is going to better coverage in your house to switch, then take the time to do it.  Go were you think will be the best value.  Clearly you think that is Verizon, that is why you put out all the money to get the network extender.

The Motorola Moto X was released on 9/26 for Verizon, the Motorola Droid Turbo came out 5 weeks later on 10/30.  If Verizon wanted to kept the same time between the Note 4 and Note Edge release dates, then the Edge should have been released last week on November 27th. 

I did not pay for the network extender, when I called to cancel my service, they offered it for free to keep my business.

The Moto X was a really bad phone. I think that is why it came out, so quickly with a new phone.  It was updated and so much better in the Turbo.  With the Note 4 vs the Edge phone, I have read the reviews and it is worse.  I think it is cool that the screen can wrap around, but that is that it has going for it.  The Edge is a step down from the Note 4, that is why I feel like they are waiting as well.

the edge is $100 more than the note 4. it's gimicky and it won't sell many units. that's why i don't belive they really care about it.

This is a JOKE! You can get this phone on AT&T and Sprint but not Verizon?  Please stop with this crap about not selling, people will pay the $399 to get it so then need to get off there lazy butts and make it happen! I don't see it coming to Verizon until next year so debating on getting the Note 4 because I don't want to wait

What is the joke? If you do not want to wait for the phone, then chose a different or move to a carrier that already has it.....I guess I am missing the joke??
