I'm on the phone with VZW right now...will update as soon as the CSR comes back on the line.
EDIT
Got one!
I was upgrade eligible...so the price was $182, and there's a $50 rebate to send in. So $132 for a BB? Not too terrible.
Finally!

At this time of day, when will you get it? Funny, I got quoted $127 earlier and have seen some $119 posts. Not that I care about the difference. Should have ordered earlier.

Not sure when I'll get it. I suppose if it shows up tomorrow I will be pleasantly surprised...In my experience with VZW (on the business side), they are pretty quick to get them out. This one is on the consumer side, replacing my RAZR.
It IS late though, so if it's not till Monday, I will survive with my 8820 & RAZR till then.
I hadn't really thought about calling customer service till I saw the couple posts here...so THANKS for those posts!

been reading up on all other forums for about 2 hours and from what im understanding this might have been an accidental early release, you have to call the 800 number and tell the rep some code and then it pulls up and you can order. from what i have read alot have ordered and its on its way via over night shipping but others who called later werent allowed to purchase it. they were told they had to wait till the may 9th release. i guess we will find out in the next couple of days

Here is what the deal is:
Regardless of your account (B2B or not) they will deny the availability unless you tell them the stock code (bb8330c)
They will ship it overnight (arrive Monday)
The pricing is: $69.99 w/ new every 2 ($100), business discount ($100), mail in rebate ($50), 2 yr contract
In stores and online May 9th. It is in their systems...they told me.
Mike

Just ordered my 8330c a few minutes ago
Called VZW customer service (800-922-0204), asked the rep to order the Blackberry Curve. She looked it up (SKU # bb8330c)and said, "No problem"!
She also advanced my New-Every-Two date to today (from May 19th)!
No hassles, etc.

It took me 12 times calling different numbers, but I finally got Aaron to order one for me. It was $319 - $100ADC. Should I expect to also receive a $50 MIR? Keep trying it's possible.

What a bunch of BS...
Just spoke to my Biz rep, he says "Yes" they are in stock, and "No, they will NOT bereleased until next Friday"
Any order that passes the admin desk, (which needs to happen b4 shippment) will be rejected. And this is the guy who got me my Pearl hand delivered the day it came out last year...
So whomever is making these claims, I would take with a grain of salt...

I would agree with Jawsnj... I just called my rep and they are not showing being able to ship order before the 9th. He wouldn't even let me pre order.

Please excuse my ignorance, but what sort of account does one need to qualify for this? Would a very small business (like 3 phones) qualify?
Thanks.

I just got an email from my business rep for personal use:
Hi Mike. Good news. The Curve is scheduled to launch on May 9th, but I just got word that they are in the warehouse and I can order them now. For you the price will be $114.99 with a new 2 year contract. Here's the order form for you to fill out. Fax it back to me with a copy of your work ID when you are ready to order.
My company has a contract with Vzw so I think that is how I am eligible for personal order form.

If the above it true than why would they deny a person with a contract threw the state when I called.

Haha, I don't know but the above is definately true, I'm not bored at work trying to mess with this forum. If you work for a company that has a verizon contract, I can forward you the form. I'm in NYC and so is my rep.
