here is a screentshot of my PO (cleared out any info on where from/to etc...)

eta is the 23rd, we are able to sell on the 24th"

So you have phones to sell for about 14 minutes . What are you planing to do the rest of the day ?

I mean with the order receipt from vzw it seems like we can put this to bed for Thursday being the latest. 28th if somethin goes wrong?

sent from my D1 on Sappphire 2.0.2. via droidforums app.
 
as long as its not past the 28th I will be fine, thats when my upgrade is :D
but seriously, I don't think BB would have called me and told me it would be ready the 24th without actually knowing.
 
24th. The 24th is when I will have my precioussssss.

Verizon called me today about a question I posted on the Verizon Community Forums (sorry for posting there and cheating on everyone)...

After they suggested I drop down to 700 minutes from my 1400 minutes to save money and promised to give me "500 insurance minutes in case I go over my monthly plan minutes for being such a good customer"... I asked them about the Thunderbolt...

1. More people have been calling about that than the iPhone.
2. People have been getting upset that there is no information.

I asked the guy about the 24th or the 28th and he said he would check again (he checked 30 minutes ago when another customer called) and... nothing, no information.
 
A friend of mine works for VZW and told me when I asked about it that the cases and stuff are in store but could not give me a date when the phone will go on sale.

I have a feeling that the VZW employees have been told to not give out any info because of an agreement between Best Buy and VZW. The BB as gives the indication that they will be selling the TBolt starting Sunday, but everything we are seeing says VZW won't be selling it till the 24th. To me it looks like BB gave VZW a bucket of cash for true retail exclusivity, for four days. VZW had agreed to let BB have all to themselves for four days and has told their employees to keep their mouths shut.

Not saying that's a fact, but out would fit with a lot of what were seeing. It would also give VZW CYA insurance if they had the rumored butt-ream return policy on the iPhone people think Apple forced on them.
