Starting today (atleast new acts) consumers can pick up the T-Mobile 8320 Curve (HotSpot@Home and in Titanium and Gold) at a Retail store (Colorado for sure), going to be $249.99 after a $50 mail in rebate with a 2yr contract. T-Mobile Retail was given the go ahead to start selling these phones via T-Mobile corp e-mail. Call any corp store in Denver to confirm.

I want one!!

go get one, this should be nationwide, haven't gone in and checked but the e-mail looked to go all over... remember this is in CORP RETAIL stores only. Note: upgrades may not be possible, will know a bit later... Upgrade system may not let sales till the 24th. Sorry all.

I just called a local T-Mobile corporate store in Michigan and they said its not available until September 24th. Even for new activation.

Called a store here (Minnesota) and they didn't have them yet. No idea if they were coming in today. I'll try back later today.

i would check with another store, the official launch is not till the 24th, however those actively checking their e-mail will see retail has gotten to go ahead to start selling the product, my friends store has already sold 5.

note: many stores have not received their inventory yet... just checked with a friend in LA and they too did get the go ahead to sell the devices, however currently do not have any stock.

Just talked to a store here in Boise, Idaho and they said that they won't be able to sell it till monday :'-(... I've been salivating over this phone since I heard about it.

Is it just me, or does it seem like everyone is moving from the Pearl to the Curve? Just looking at this thread, there is only one person who lists a Blackberry that isn't the Pearl. Coincidence...?

What are you guys doing with your old Pearls? I tried listing mine on craigslist, but so far I don't have any takers, and I can't seem to find anyone interested in my area. I unlocked it too, but that doesn't seem to be doing much for interest.

If you pick up a Curve @ a T-Mo store are you able to bill it to your account?

Im gonna go check my store!! BRB!

I just spoke to the manager of a corporate store and he said that he (as well as the manager of the other store close to me) are just waiting for UPS to arrive, and as soon as it does they will be selling the Curve. He said that there is a chance that it might not come in todays shipment, but he seemed pretty sure about it. He told me to call back in an hour.... so im excited! This is going to make my weekend!

called my store in alabama, they said they have them in just cant sell them til monday...

and they will be around 200-250 upgrade price :]

I just spoke to my local Store, and they stated that They Have them available for new Accounts Today, for Upgrades, We have to wait until Monday.

if you want pick up instore they cannot bill an account, must have cash, credit or check.

I called three authorized TMO stores in Portland, they all don't have the shipment yet, and stated avail on Monday (9/24). Anyone else had any luck??

. . .this statement should say, "if/when/where available" . . . no sense in touching frayed nerves waiting for this device . .

I agree -- I think this is a false alarm or very limited availibility -- just called two local corporate retail stores in MA, and they both said Monday.

Several corporate stores I called in DC and MD do not have the phone. One store in DC has both gold and titanium. However, he wouldn't give it to me on an upgrade, new activation only. I asked the price and he said he had to call me back. WTF?

I spoke to several stores in my area (NoVA/DC). All 3 stores have them. 1 store won't sell until Tuesday. 1 store won't sell them today because they don't have pricing on the SKU. The other store said Monday.

Lots and lots of misinformation. This is looking more like an AT&T handset launch than a T-Mobile one!

we have them in az. stores will receive them today as the shipment also includes the demo that needs to be displayed sun night to get ready for mon launch. im playing with one as we speak.

College Park Maryland store has them but it is $350 with new activation and $50 mail in rebate.

Just walked into a retail T-Mobile here in Boston MA where the sales rep had the titanium one in hand as I approached the counter. The actual price when scanned was $450 for the phone by itself, $300 with a $50 rebate with a 2 year agreement. Upgrades not available till Monday as previously confirmed.

...so, where you able to get one? . . or the store rep was a doing a teasing act?
