Having 4 kids with 3 of them all around the country, the data plan is great for me. I'm also a little techno-geek and enjoy all of the bells and whistles. I also use the navigation system in my phone instead of buying a seperate GPS. Just last seek, the wife and I went to Glouscester Mass to do a little whale watching. Instead of renting a GPS from the rental car company, I just used my phone. There are many useful tasks that I do every day from my smart phone, I wouldn't want to live without it.
Your mileage may vary and I don't claim these phones are for everyone, but for me, they're priceless.

A little too large for me and I'm somewhat afraid of it's durability.

Exactly my point of view. You don't know what you've got until you count on that little phone every waking moment of your day!

If you want a physical keyboard the Moto Droid 2 is coming out in late summer (according to rumor). You could always get an original Moto Droid too, it's a great phone.
The iPhone has been "coming to Verizon" forever, don't hold your breath on that January date ;)
That's the date to expect shipment if you buy now. I ordered my Droid Inc last month and it's still expected to ship on the 13th with overnight delivery on the 14th.

I'd be willing to bet that with the Droid X coming out on the 15th, the Incredible will become available again before they're anticipating. I talked to the manager at my local Verizon store and he told me to check with him after the 15th to see about in-store availability. Some of the people who have been waiting on the Incredible may change their order to the X, freeing up some of the Incredible inventory. At least that's what I'm hoping... :D
