According to a handful of websites the Droid X "has been arriving at customer's doorsteps" early
my question is HOW??? There is nowhere to pre-order the Droid X online or on the phone, so how the hell are "customers" receiving them early??
Best Buy you have to physically be in the store to pick up the pre-order as they do not take your address or anything when you pre-order, wtf are they babbling about??

EDIT- Apparently if you had ordered an Incredible and were told it was backlogged and switched to X, then u get urs early
Dude, you can order them from Verizon stores and have them shipped to you. I also think there was a way to pre order online or by phone.
I am with the first dude. I was really under the impression that Verizon did NOT except any pre-orders, just BB. I have read so many articles and have been in the Verizon store many times. The closest Verizon came to taking pre-orders that I know of is making in store appointments for the 15th or allowing people the already order the incredable to switch.
Actually the early Droid X arriving was a mistake on Verizon customer service system part , has nothing to do with the Droid Incredible, they accidentally shipped out 170 units to customer but they couldn't even activate them until a few days ago where Verizon figured out how to early activate these early bird device b4 the July 15th launch date.

Ok sorry, i am still not getting it or making my point. Why did verizon ship out any phones to customers if verizon did not take pre-orders? I can see them maybe shipping some out early to stores in error. Pre-orders still had to take place for Verizon to have the addresses to send these phones in error. And all web info indicates that Verizon did not allow or take pre-orders.

EXACTLY!!
Why are cutomers getting phones when there was no possible way to "pre-order" staright from verizon????
I went into a corporate store and tried to order and they told me to come back the 15th first come first serve!!
For whatever reason, the 170 people who got their phones first were by a rep that somehow got the order in, or by people who had been waiting for incredibles but changed to the droid.
Or they are just trying to build the buzz for the official launch. Be interesting to see if these early releases are spread out across the country and most of them close to major markets.

My thoughts exactly...
Went in today and played with it... must say it feels very good in-hand. Buttons were NOT wonky. Screen was gorgeous, and was very thin and light. Did not feel cheap in any way!!!!!! : )
... so excited for thursday!
man, i also cant wait for tomorrow. I luckaly have the day off but i have my 9mo old son with me so i really cant go too early and stand in line for hours. I am really nervous that people will be "camping out" way early and that i will not get my hands on one. I guess i have to mentally prepare to be dissapointed.
I am also wondering if the hype is blown up and if there will really be lines for hours. I guess time will tell. i hope everyone here that wants one and thats is as excited as i am gets one.
According to this you won't have to worry, plenty of supply

It appears that more evidence is showing an August 11th release date:
http://www.9computerstore.com/2010/08/06/sprint-samsung-epic-4g-release-date-and-features
They don't list a source, so this provides no new evidence for an August 11th release.

You know, those other two threads have really gone off topic, and IF the Epic releases on the 11th, then a separate thread is warranted. But only time will tell, and one of us is going to be eating some crow, and if the Epic releases on the 11th, it will be you, and if it doesn't, I guess I am the one who will be eating it.

I work for Sprint, and there has been no official release date yet...
craigslist agrees with august 11
http://harrisburg.craigslist.org/mob/1883640910.html
I speculate that the 20th is the original date. Yet, competitiveness drove sprint and samsung to push for the 11th; so as to beat the torch and possibly the droid 2 to the market. Their endeavors were most likely spoiled when a software glitch of some sort was found. Now, they are frantically fixing the issue and may soft launch the phone on the 11th if said glitch is repaired, or can be made available via update a short time after (much like the evo). The 20th, is a solid release date, and allows Sammy and Sprint to submit the software fix to manufacturing. This is purely conjecture and my outright lust for this phone has driven my imagination to draw such a conclusion.
Again is total BS that I am spewing.
Give me a release date Sprint, or you may soon lose a customer you never had.

I know right? And I am one of those people that wants this phone so badly I have been blatantly dismissing all those September or later claims, but this is not good news, and is probably the most specific they have been since the "Summer" commitment.
I'm really not look forward to this.
They're probably just trying to get all the bugs worked out. If the epic comes out with a lot of bugs, some people might return it and go to the Evo. I'm happy to wait a bit so all the bugs can be fixed. It will come soon enough. I'd be shocked if it didn't come out in August.
I went to another Sprint store that had the Epic ad in the window. They are the second store to tell me Aug 20 is the release date for the Epic. But, they don't know the price.
I hope it has the same $450 price tag (or less!) as the EVO. If I decide to go for the Epic I could probably get $400 for my EVO, so $50 would be a great price. Plus I still have my contract due October 1st.

Sprint looks to be making all their high end smartphones to be $450. However, I can say for a fact that the 20th is unlikely, and NOBODY knows a concrete release date yet, at least not in the retail end.

I'd like to think its legit, but there seem to be so many people pulling hoaxes these days for attention. On a positive note, I've gotten a lot of at&t phones on launch day, and I'm pretty sure 1 or 2 wasn't on a Sunday.

True true. Everyone wants to make a picture that shows up in the news. This one looks no more legit than the last.
Which means AT&T has 6 days to fix this backorder issue, or preorders are going to get screwed.
People will walk in-store and grab theirs, while we wait at the mailbox for our preorders.

I work for AT&T, I haven't seen that message that is going around about early release yet but it looks legit. It mentions internal systems that we use and we have all the price tags up in store. It's rare for use to put a spot on the wall for a phone that is several weeks out.

Message seems legit, though I haven't seen this email passed amongst the ranks of store employees yet. That would be very awesome if it comes to be true, I can't take another day of my Samsung Moment and Sprint's poor coverage where I live.
The wife and I have our upgrades on the 26th, I hope you guys have a chance to wring this thing out for 4 days before we go get ours.
Holy crap I hope this is true. I am about to throw my Fuze out of window
I didn't realize how many of us are still clinging to our fuzes.
It also looks like they finally fixed the Premiere store for people wanting upgrades. Yesterday it would only let me upgrade to an iPhone (any variety) and some crappy Nokia. This morning it allowed me to upgrade to anything.
Here's to hoping that it really is the 22nd!
Oh, and anyone want an ATT Nexus One?

The salesguy told me that pre-ordering will start on Feb. 20 and that the actual launch day has yet to be confirmed because "google is still doing last minute tweaks to Honeycomb." They're hoping for February 27th.
Also, he said he is unaware of the wifi-only model--I assume he means when it will be released since we have confirmation that one does exist.
Any finally, most interesting, is that if you buy a 3G version, in order to upgrade it to 4G, Motorola will be sending you an empty box to ship the xoom back to them so they can make the upgrade. They are promising a one week turn-around.
This guy may be ill-informed but he sounded like he knew what he was talking about. Just an FYI to the community.
BTW: I live in Ft. Lauderdale, FL (called local BB)
The 4G upgrade is software based and we'll get it OTA.
I would think that the Xooms are already boxed up sitting in a warehouse. However, I really dont know how quick they can go from the production line to shipping to the stores... but it may be possible to so that within a few days.
I hope its not pushed back, but I'd rather have a good experience out of the box then wait 2-3 weeks for an OTA patch.

no the guy was right, the xoom comes with a evdo radio only. they have to add the lte radio in there but its at no cost. their probably is an ota for 4g but its not the only requirement. im ready to pick one up my self but if it comes with better experience for me later then i can wait.

I was thinking it was some chip to replace, then I stumbled on another tech site that simply stated it was a software patch.
Sending the Xoom to MOTO for chip replacement is going to cost MOTO 100's of thousands of dollars; i dont get it. Unless we have to pay for shipping.
If sending it in is a requirement I think they need to disclose that in advance. If I was buying one and the LTE upgrade was a factor, I wouldn't want to have to send it in to be upgraded and be without it for a week or more.
Think I'll wait longer for the WiFi model than deal with that.
I could have sworn that they said the LTE update would be OTA during CES, but I admit, I could be wrong.

here's a link from androidcentral
http://www.androidcentral.com/motor...ardware-upgrade-4g-software-patch-microsd-use
it wasnt the link i was looking for but i know androidcentral is also a credible source but if you search for it you will see that it needs a hardware upgrade. As for the upgrades costing motorola, they are probably already getting their cut from the price of the xoom. Sanjay said the price of the xoom is justifiable because its 4g upgradeable which might mean they already figured in the cost of 4g upgrade with original price of xoom. It sucks for us because those who arent in 4g coverage are getting charged for it but its a smart move by moto since 100% of the tablets they sell wont be all coming back.
The more I read, the more I want to wait for wifi only. I hear that Costco has a 90 day return policy. I want the tablet so bad, I may spring for one and hope the wifi model comes out b4 the 90 days...

Good point. I would have done the same thing if I was them. Probably only going to get a 40% return, if that, for the 4G upgrade. It's all just added revenue to them. And once the LTE upgrade is installed on new out-the-door units, they'll still be making a larger profit due to the higher price.
The $200 difference between WiFi and the 3G model make a lot more sense now if you've got to send it in.

Did you talk to the store manager or just sales rep? Let me know the name and I will try and dig a little more. {have several contacts in Minneapolis}
You should know that you can't trust a single thing a BB employee tells you, even if he was the store manager. Only trust that which is on an official handout. If that employee pulls out a printout like the leaked info.. then you can trust him. To test, just call the same store every 2 hours and see how often you get an employee swear by something different than another employee.
What's more annoying is when you know they have been giving info around preorder time, and they play stupid.
If Xoom will be available for pre-order this weekend, I would think they would have announced something by now. What do you guys think?

Well I registered for updates on motorola/xoom site and I am supposed to be the first to know when it is available! I guess we continue to wait.
I stopped by BB today. All the reps said presale starts tomorrow and device in stores on 24th (though they didn't know much, including price, I informed them haha - but recent emails stated these dates). Asked them if they matched price, incase Costco is $100 cheaper, said it depends. I would think they'd match competition though...
Also, I don't recall the Atrix presale being announced officially until the day of - I'd imagine the Xoom being done the same way.
On another post, about wirefly, someone said something about Verizon starting Xoom sales on the 23, anyone else hear this?

Everyone that has come into COSTCO talking about can i get a printout of this price so someone will match it, comes back saying they didn't match it. Most business will say price match except so and so and so...one being warehouse clubs.

Looks like Sprint, T-Mo and AT&T will still be launching the HTC One in the U.S. before the end of March.
That's fantastic news, 'cause I'm getting mega antsy. Another months wait would have been embarrassingly unbearable.
Thanks for that update. Here's hoping that it's actually the 15th for the US as well.
This is good news. Was just a hair away from a Note 2 as I didn't want to wait another month or so.

I will get 14 days to return it if the One shows up by the 28th or the 29th of March but I highly doubt it.
The US timeline may not be affected by the delays could be because it wasn't going to be released until April.
I am keeping my finger crossed that I will end up with it by the end of March

, but isn't it a hassle to switch out? I mean you get everything all setup on one device and then have to take it back and switch out and deal with the rep headaches and what not....unless you do everything online. Still a pain.
I will give it a little more time. Hopefully hear something by the end of this week.

Since the HTC One upgrade promo technically ended yesterday (it's still listed on HTC's site), I'm sure we'll see U.S. service providers start announcing release dates and pricing any time now. The Samsung Galaxy S IV will be unveiled tomorrow, so it'll probably be Friday or next Monday before we get details.

Yeah, but i think they are going to try and steal the "thunder" away from the gs4, which is kind of smart but at the same time stupid, so im expecting something to be said tomorrow and if not by friday the latest

I could always do that as well
, but isn't it a hassle to switch out? I mean you get everything all setup on one device and then have to take it back and switch out and deal with the rep headaches and what not....unless you do everything online. Still a pain.
I will give it a little more time. Hopefully hear something by the end of this week.
I know I will enjoy the Note anyway as I have an s3 right now and love it, just love new phones, lol!
Wife did say this is the last one for awhile, unless I start Craigslisting...

That is hilarious, I switch a phone about every other month sometimes every month. The rep got used seeing me in the store. It is not much of a hassle for me. My wife gave up on saying no to switching phone cause I am addicted.
I hope to see the One preorders by the end of this week but I doubt it

Depends on the carrier.. if you're on CDMA it could be a pain switching devices.. but with GSM phones its pretty much just swiping sim cards..
But the user above hopes that HTC releases the HTC One in the next two weeks being that he have a 14 day return to exchange to another phone..
i would of had never done that, Maybe in the past when most carriers had a 30 day return period.. now most have a 14 day return..
Most likely the device will be out within a week or two after release.. because new customers have to start a new line the day they pre-order it.. if they was in the store.. (at least thats what Sprint did to me the time i pre-order my EVO 4G) maybe things have change and you can pre-order it and sign up the day it comes out..
I wish I could believe this... But I can't until there are solid release dates.
