Do they have a demo model of the 8300 on the floor? I'm on T-Mo, but would like to check out the device just to see how it looks and feels. |

The company I own is in Orange County and my employees bought their personal 8300 BB's there this morning.
I'm presently located in the center of California, as I'm building another business in Sacramento. I got mine here in the Central Valley and a friend of mine in San Mateo got one there this morning.
Hope this helps.

I envy all of you who were fortunate enough to get one today. I can't wait buy one as the Rogers Wireless release date thus far is all speculation with nothing concrete. I'm hoping someone puts one up for sale so I can bask in the beauty and style of the 8300.

My contract was up so I renewed. If you're buying outright, I don't think they'll sell to you. I've found that most stores around me won't sell outright for a couple of weeks.
You could try the move I did last time. I called and told them I dropped my blackberry and needed to get another one right away. They put me on hold (probably to check) and came back and said they'd sell me one. I acted desperate on the phone. I'm so ashamed... |

Got mine in Memphis
Went at 2:00 pm and they didn't have it but as I was walking out of the store the sales rep called me back and said UPS just arrived with it.
I have it and it is awesome! Love the size, looks and feel. Look forward to setting it up tonight.

It didn't look like it but I tried to get in and out of there fast. That store's a mad house during lunch hour. In the past, they usually have a demo they keep in the back cause they don't have enough time to put it out. |

I called a couple stores in the South King County area (south of Seattle) and the first guy I talked to put me on hold, then came back and said they had gotten some in.
Told him I would have to get down there and get one and he asked if I knew where they were located. Heh. I spent 30 minutes in that store last week talking to my favorite rep about the Curve and iPhone.
Now, if only I can persuade my husband to let me just go get one. Pwease, baby, pwetty pwease!
I've got $160 sitting in my Paypal to put toward it. Will drop that in my checking account now. He he he. So close. So very close!

There is a $100 rebate in the form of a ATT card you can use to pay a future bill or accessories with.
The store had no 8300 accessories, and as someone stated, the phone does NOT come with a leather case. Purchased one that fit for $30.
Four other stores in my area either had them yesterday or on sale today. My Bronx corporate store at 151/3rd ave didn't have anything in today. Never thought NYC would lag behind SA, but there it is.

LaCantera? There's only a T-Mobile store there. Heubner Oaks hadn't seen any yet when I was there at 2:15.

Anyone in Kansas City metro area find one?
Have called stores north of the river, in Westport, Shawnee, Leawood, all to no avail and with differing responses of knowledge. Have called them this morning and periodically throughout the afternoon.
I am still calling tonight in hopes that a diligent UPS driver wants to get a jump on his/her route for tomorrow morning and will drop some off at a store.
Anyone in KC find a curve yet?

If I recall, Kris' hubby is quite happy with plain 'ol tech. Nothing wrong with that!
I can't wait to see a Curve in person... but all the corporate stores in San Francisco have this draconian policy of "you touch, you buy" when it comes to devices in-box. So unless it's a floor sample, no luck for a Nit Picker like me if I just want to "kick the tires"! |
