T-Mobile took payment and even offered me expedited shipping! After trying to track the order throughout the week, I found through calls to customer support that the 8900 curve is on backorder. Customer service sent a form to the warehouse for estimated ship date and said they would get back to me.

A retail location near where I live said they only received 5 or 6 phones and they went fast. Sounds like T-Mobile promoted a product launch and knowingly acquired an insufficient amount of stock for the launch.

Great way to gather some capital real fast and lose esteem at the same time.

As my contract is (was...) due to expire next month, I have decided that if I do not get the phone before the contract expiration date, I will cancel with T-Mobile and pick a better provider. Oh well
