lol
One, is this deal real? I have no idea. lol It's not been verified to me. This is what I do know. My kiosk is under the impression that it is. Earlier this month, there was a meeting between Costco and Wireless Advocates in Seattle, WA (where Wireless Advocates is based out of). Our Costco's store manager and our regional manager were on hand. As was the Bionic.
We were told that Costco was going to make a huge push on this phone. This meant accessories (though we weren't sure which), and advertising (which other than it's coupon book that they send out every three weeks, they don't do).
What I do know is that the Bionic is in our inventory list, with a SKU # and a price listing as $300. This can only mean one of three things:
1) As we know the price is $300 at VZW and we always beat their prices, then this will be the price of the phone PLUS the bundle.
2) This is the price of the phone before having a rebate applied.
3) Both.
As I've stated elsewhere, we don't get a whole lot of inside information. Almost none, really. I get most of what I know from the same places you guys do. So I can't confirm that this phone will come out on the 8th (despite every one of our channels pointing to that), that we'll have it on drop day (which every channel also points to), or whether this will be the deal when it does (again, each channel points to it). But I'm pretty confident that I'm going to have a Droid Bionic with the bundle a week from today.
And welcome to AF!
