I ordered 8900 yesterday through corporate sales and they promised it would be in my hands on or before Thursday. 1 year contract for $250 after rebates and discounts. Plus $19.99 for expedited shipping.

Be careful about the rebates. The last time I upgraded to my curve I also only re-upped for one year. They provided me with a rebate that indicated it was only valid for re-ups of 2 years. I sent it in anyway and they were able to put it through, but technically if they went by the fine print I shouldn't have gotten it. I think I also ordered early enough that the rebate forms were not yet out for the phone when I ordered.

So anyone want to order one of these for me?

Ok, this is really strange. I just talked to my local business rep again and said that some business customers are getting their phones this week and she told me that that is impossible, since the phone won't be available until Monday, 1/26 and ship no sooner than that and that no one is getting a phone this week. I don't mind waiting until next week, just find it strange! And I really like my rep, she is the main reason for me and my business to have T-Mobile! She has always taken care of me in the past.

Oh well...

Yeah, any takers?

[Cyrus]

I've got to wait till Feb. It's getting closer though, I can almost smell it. Hopefully my wife will be able to get one ordered before they are all gobbled up. Her $400 discount should come in pretty handy as well....

[tommyk42]

I guess I'll have to wait until Feb...hopefully stores get them early and sell them before the actual release date just like the first curve.

How early did they go on sale?

[tommyk42]

I got it 3 days before the official release date at a TMO store.

[chadmd23]

Mine is showing Thursday delivery! Took a few CSRs, but one finally put the order in for me.

[doppler]

Yep, mine shipped yesterday too. 3 days early! It was sent overnight, and I should have it my hands in an hour.

[chrys7]

I ordered 5 Wednesday got them this AM, trying to figure out how to unlock one since my boss doesnt want to leave ATT for T-Mo.

We have a business Acct BTW.

Its a nice Devic....but im sticking with my Storm.

[doppler]

Tmo will give you the unlock code if you've been in good standing for 3 months or so, which it sounds like you have.

[coldconfession13]

I suggest going with HorizonWirelessOnline.com - Horizon Wireless, The World’s Cellular Repair Center ß to get your unlock code for your 8900

[chrys7]

ARE YOU SERIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Who would I speak to a regular Cust Serv or?

When I unlock my Storm I had to speak to VZ BB global support i think...

[rcamu]

Yup...was told it would ship on the 26th, but UPS is showing delivery for tomorrow the 23rd, without the rush charge.

Will have the weekend to mess around with it...any good themes out there for the 8900?

[chrys7]

Why them over T-mo I am not familar with these guys.
is there a fee?

[GT5L]

i recommend HorizonWirelessOnline.com - Horizon Wireless, The World’s Cellular Repair Center ß

[doppler]

Just call Tmo customer service and tell them you'd like to have your phone unlocked. They will ask for your IMEI and send you unlock instructions via email. It's free!
