I've gone ahead and ordered the Moto X. The design-your-own store is pretty cool, though the integration between Verizon and Motorola was not as clean as it should have been (at one point Motorola lost track that it was a Verizon upgrade and went charging ahead as though it was a brand new phone), and Motorola really needs to learn how the concept of the "cart" should work (at one point I had two phones being ordered, and no obvious way to change that without abandoning the whole transaction).
Sadly, as had been pointed out previously, upgrading your Verizon phone on a line with an unlimited data plan loses said plan. Oh, well. For the same price I look to be getting more data than I'm currently actually using, so that's not a huge thing. Yet.
The new phone should be here next Tuesday.

My understanding is that you can at least get a 6GB plan when you replace unlimited data.
What was odd was that I was not actually prompted about it one way or the other. Which, in following up with the Verizon people, means it was brought in as 2Gb.
Which I think is probably okay, looking at my utilization, but I hate worrying about caps.
As long as you're happy with what your end result was. Though, I confess, if I was going to eat the loss of the unlimited, I'd find it hard to resist the Droid MAXX.
+Gary Roth Well, I won't know if I'm happy until I get there (or it gets here), but I decided that it would suffice, and I can stop worrying about the decision or what else might be just about to come out or …
True enough. You'll enjoy it, anyway.
