AT&T Aura Glow, preordered the 10th, ship to home. BB swore the day before release mine would be here despite no shipping info (I assumed no way but they insisted repeatedly). Then at midnight my time they send the delayed email, no anticipated new date. The other day the called about an activation issue, and managed to get my current SIM disabled in the process leaving me to deal with AT&T. He said I'd get a shipping notice within 24 hours, it did take a full 24 hours and UPS notified me first. Shockingly, it will be here tomorrow. The kicker, though, at least to me?
It shipped from my local freaking store. Same one that never showed having any of the phone in stock since launch. And if that's true, why ship mine there first? I can't even believe it was at the local damn store. I did a double take at the shipment details. My call about activation was not a local person, by the way.
Trying Samsung.com next year. Clearly they have issues too, but I have had several maddening experiences with BB and thought the online preorder would be different. My bad.
I will say though, I'm grateful it is going to be here and very sorry to those still waiting. Hang in there, because at no time did mine promise to arrive at all. It just said if they couldn't fulfill the order by the 22nd, they'd cancel it.
