I just got my Moto E in the mail from Best Buy!

ETA: First thoughts:

The packaging is ridiculously wasteful. Who needs all this plastic and an oversized box?
I had a hard time getting the extra blue grip on the phone, and then when I did, I couldn't charge it with the grip on--there's a hole for the USB port, but the grip is thick enough that the charger can't plug in securely through that space. How dumb.
It's slightly larger than the 1st gen Moto E, with new wallpapers. Otherwise it looks about the same, very nice display.
Every time you turn it on, it wants to activate, and doesn't seem to stop trying to do so. This could easily drive me bonkers, so I hope someone knows how to disable that process.
It has a smidge under 5gb of available internal memory.
