So the release date is Sept 8.
I know the DROID 3 and Blackberry Bold 9930 were only offered online when they were released, why is this?
Willl the DROID Bionic be online only or released online AND in coorporate stores on 9/8/11?

ALSO, Does anyone know how long it takes for a contract date to be reset?
I bought a Blackberry Bold 9930, hated it and returned it to Fort Worth TX warehouse a week ago. My debit card was refunded and the warehouse has recieved both devices but my date hasnt be reset yet? I called and they said "it takes a few days"? WTF....what should I do?

 

[Vihzel]

It will be available both online and in store on the 8th. Verizon doesn't do things the same for every device and the Bionic is just a phone with no online-only sale first, like the Droid X when it was released.

I have the 9930 too but am waiting for the Bionic to be released before I get rid of this device. BB really is terrible. lol

 

[whitenoiz]

Still no pre-order yet?

You guys must be going crazy!

Don't worry, once you get your Bionics, you can buy one of these:

Stressberry is the BlackBerry Shaped Stress Ball

Nope.

But we are counting down the days.

 

[rossman26]

Now that Stressberry is fantastic!

I have to have a BB for work so I'm totally getting that. Yes, I carry around two phones at all times.. lol

Thanks for that Tehsusenoh

That's a peculiar looking live wallpaper I love the classic root look!

Oh no, that's no wallpaper! It's the boot screen! It shows the linux kernel debug as the phone is booting.

funny how the new bb gets an announcement and pre-order date but not this phone. maybe there not happy with moto.

That's because the BB needs promotions to stay relevant.

The Bionic doesn't need an annoucement!

They never announced the Droid 3 until you could purchase it.

Verizon! Sheesh!

But don't forget all of the ads that say 9/8/11. And the DroidDoes.com site.

And the calls to VZW stores & Costco Kiosks saying they will have it on the 8th =]

Unrelated, but my Costco doesn't even have the Droid 3 yet. They have 5 Droid 2 Globals left, and they can't get the 3 until they sell out on the 2. Es una l

 

[johnlgalt]

Good point - I need to call the CostCos tomorrow and see who is going to have it on Thursday before I go camping out only to find out no one in ATL is gonna have it....
