**mjforte** · 08-30-2011, 10:45 PM

I just checked Droid Does not even 30 minutes ago. They must have just added this. Good find!

**tbssawd07** · 08-30-2011, 10:47 PM

Yeah just dropped I guess. I was like WTF?!

**kca2000** · 08-30-2011, 10:47 PM

Here we go boys. This is it. Close to 9 months in the making!

**ChevyNovaLN** · 08-30-2011, 10:47 PM

**ChevyNovaLN** · 08-30-2011, 10:49 PM

BTW, that timer doesn't appear to be counting down. 37 hours 12 min on mine...

**Noble.Four** · 08-30-2011, 10:49 PM

Looks like it is up to our favorite bloggers to unlock some stuff.

**mjforte** · 08-30-2011, 10:50 PM

Maybe it depends on your location?

**tbssawd07** · 08-30-2011, 10:50 PM

Mine says 36H 10Ms

**tbssawd07** · 08-30-2011, 10:52 PM

Great if it's a preorder clock it will be at my busiest time at work!

**mjforte** · 08-30-2011, 10:52 PM

Yeah 36H 8M here. I live in Florida.

**kca2000** · 08-30-2011, 10:53 PM

Noon on Thursday EST. Sounds about right.

**mjforte** · 08-30-2011, 10:55 PM

Of course I'm assuming we can preorder earlier than that. I believe the Droid 3 was available at like 1AM PST.

**Dkdude** · 08-30-2011, 10:56 PM

Notice on the sidebar on the left about midway down that cycles through ads one of them is one that says "Only 4 days beginning 9/4" for some Arena contest to win a Bionic, that confirms 9/8 release right there baby.

**SnydersWeb** · 08-30-2011, 10:56 PM

Interesting.. BoingBoing, BoyGenius, JoyStiq, and our own beloved AndroidCentral all have codes here.

So.. I'm guessing Phil *cough* might know something about this considering it's mentioning his site.

**mjforte** · 08-30-2011, 10:57 PM

Spill the goods Phil!

I accessed it directly at midnight and it say 36 hours (I'm EST) so makes sense here too.

Love seeing AndroidCentral on there!

**KillerG** · 08-30-2011, 11:05 PM

I just saw this and I loaded up the page, in the url I see #/bionic. I'm just like $%&@ YEAH!!! FINALLY! Damn this has taken too long, but now we will FINALLY see "the end of waiting."

Yeah I got on there, expecting to see it, and I'm like wait a second... So ummmm Phil *cough* where's our codes? I want now please

EDIT: It says 38 hours, so he'll probably get an email in 38 hours about it. Guess when 38 hours is? The middle of thursday. Guess what thursday is? The day we were supposed to see pre-orders.
MOTOROLA, WHY MUST YOU TEASE US WITH THIS "NEEDING A CODE" STUFF. OMG AGHHHHH

Oh and I freaked out just now for no reason because I got an email from Verizon telling me that I'm on their mailing list for this Bionic now lol.

**beermanmike** · 08-30-2011, 11:18 PM

Was about to post this, but looked first. Central Cali here and it says 38:44.

I'm guessing everyone needs to put in their 4 codes or something to unlock a video? Anyways looks like we're set for thursday also, Phil knows something but can't tell us waaaa

I think we'll just need one...hopefully. I don't want to go to 4 different websites to collect codes. That'll kill the traffic at these people's websites too lol. I think they're spreading it out, so not one person gets the monopoly on the codes, at least that's what I'd expect them to do.

I'm looking through Verizon's code, and if they gave whoever is in charge of those forums the codes then they're most likely not allowed to release them since the codes aren't live on Verizon's backend yet
