By my math, this puts zero hour on Friday night.

Who's gonna wait that long??

Yeah I noticed that too. I'm not waiting that long. Friday morning at 10:00am, this will be mine.

I'm hoping once I get it I'll be able to get some work done...

Probably not

Oops. It's just like me to make that kind of screw up. Will fix.

Edit: Better or did I still screw it up?

Thanks ... but now looking at the clock iI'm sad because i want it to read zero now lol. I called my Sprint store and there not opening like last year. I got my Epic at 815am last year but i have to wait till 10 am to get it this time. Bummer... :'(

I'm going to stop by store tomorrow evening see if I can pull off early release.
Manager is pretty cool see how it goes.,,,I'm thinking 50-50 chance of success

Fortunately the store I pre-ordered at opens at 9am.

On the 16th can I buy it in a store, other than a Sprint store?

 

[sndplace]

Walmart will have them. 100 new contract 150 renewal.

 

[remii]

Walmart only carries sprint online not in stores.

Holy cow this last day and a half is KILLING me. I can't even sleep I have so much going through my mind. I need this phone just to be able to sleep. This must be what drug addiction is like.

Well yes, the bad news is you are exhibiting all the signs of being a "full fledged cell phone junkie" BUT the good news is, its a "healthy addiction", you can't overdose, you learn A LOT, and when you get "your fix" it lasts a really long time (at least a month!)

Does no one know if RadioShack or BestBuy will have these in stock?

I guess i'll have to call them.

 

[evansgw]

Called the following

RadioShack on York Road, Baltimore MD - They have no idea when they will get a shipment
BestBuy in Timonium, MD - They are not stocking the phone. They suggested trying Whitemarsh, MD.
BestBuy in Whitemarsh, MD - Phones not working and now not answering
BestBuy in Inner Harbor, Baltimore, MD - No idea about availability
BestBuy MOBILE, Towson Mall, MD - No idea about availability... they are the mobile store!! crazy

Looks like I may end up having to get it from Sprint. I can't believe the BB staff are so useless and that the stores are not even going to be stocking the phone.

 

[noshooz]

Ack! I was planning on doing in-store pickup ordering tomorrow morning and snagging one from the Best Buy in Elkridge, MD on the way home from work. This isn't encouraging news. Thankfully there's a Sprint store in Columbia I can also try.

 

[enormous]

Just called the Sprint store on 18th in DC. Lady said they only have 4 on their waiting list there! I'm guessing there won't be a problem getting this phone.

Now my dilemma is: do I grab one from the Sprint store and cancel my Amazon order, or wait it out. How strong am I??
