When/Will Verizon offer the DroidX up for pre-order?

So I spoke to my gf's roomate's boyfriend (if that even makes sense :P) and he informed me that their store won't actually receive a working device until the day of its release O_o

Apparently however, to continue its buzz, they will be shipped dummy units between the 9th and 10th...
 
I ordered mine Sunday, paid for, and have a verizon reciept. It can be done.

They should have recieved an email from corp, telling them how to do it, something about a self sale tab.

323 out the door, to return on the 15 to pick it up and the rebate paperwork.

How did you do this at the store? I went to my local store yesterday and told me I couldn't order until the 15th?
 
Droid X ordered

I called Verizon yesterday, asked if I could pre-order. She said she didn't know, put me on hold, came back and said I could order and I would get it next Thursday 7/16. Got an e-mail a few minutes later telling me my order has shipped and will be delivered tomorrow 7/9 by 7pm.

What...the...***...?
 
I'm beginning to believe that individual Verizon CSR's must be making up their own rules as they think of them.

Ugh, I just tried my luck. First she said yes, then she said they couldn't until the 16th. That's messed up. :rolleyes:
 
I took a stroll into my local VZW store and they had fliers saying they would be open at 8am. Im glad I can stay at home sit on my butt and wait for the FedEx guy to deliver my X.
 
My husband just signed for my package. I had him open it and it's the
Droid X.

Can't wait to get home and play!
 
Just got off the phone with vzw and the guy said "impossible" to get the phone early and that I'm not even eligible for the early upgrade. This is 100% different from what other CS people have assured me.

Going to have to call back because this guy was clueless
 
Im going to my bestbuy near my house today to Pre-order it but Im hoping that verizon wont have any problems with me switching to a new device 3 times in a row. I dont see why it would seing as how their making money off me. I went from the Motorola Droid > HTC Droid Incredible and now to the X. Better not be an issue, Ive layed down alot of money doing this. I also just got my 3rd Incredible in the mail finally after waiting for a month. Now to send back my old one and sell my new Inc :)

All 3 on the same line? How do u figure ur going to sell the new one? You better get more than 600 out of it, cause you will see a bill for it in a few months!

What do you mean ill see a bill for it? I sold my original Droid and got the Inc and intend on doing the same thing. Sell it then get the x. Nothing came up on my bill last time. I don't see why I would seing as how I've outright bought the phone for retail. Their still making a ****load of cash off me.

The Bestbuy near my house is taking preorders.

Even if you got the phones at a discount, as long as you don't cancel your plan you won't get billed.
 
I'm not canceling anything. I'm getting a new phone and activating it on the same line I've used all along. I shouldn't be billed for anything. Dont see why I would.

you can change phones as many times as you want, it'll be fine.

i think the post about you getting billed was thinking you got a replacement incredible and were going to keep the replacement, and then sell the original instead of mailing it back to verizon, in which case you would be charged for the one that was supposed to be sent back.

just a mild confusion (me thinks) :)
