Dude, this entire thing looks like a conspiracy between ATT and APPLE. ATT such a big telecom vendor can't even have a strategy when to release dates and pricing on a product which is most awaited for ? Such a shame on their operating and marketing principles.
There is a proverb. Strike the Iron when it is hot. Now, my anxiety and Euphoria have gone down. I still want to get an 920, but not what I used to think a week ago. Nokia, on the other hand had no choice except to go with ATT, since it has most penetration. I bet, quite a percentage of people may be thinking to buy other phones.
This is what happens if we let monopoly in any industry. Apple. Now ATT. All we can do is just keep refreshing wpcentral.com home page to hear the good news that ATT is now enrolling pre orders.
God Bless us. And America. but not ATT. lol.
Proof??? Nothing against you I'm just tired of the senseless antics from both Nokia & AT&T.
Preorders will begin on the 3rd/4th and will be available the following weekend. Technically the 11th but may be in stores the Friday before.

Didn't you say "Be Patient. The Day is young" on the 29th after the event? Now, they're going to start pre-orders this Saturday?
Again, your dates sound plausible and can be inferred from recent rumors......but then again, NO Lumia 920 release/pre-order rumors for the US have panned out thus far.
How would I have any idea if Microsoft was going to announce dates? My source works for AT&T and in sales. So he is not privy to anything Microsoft does. I never claimed to know when preorders were going to reopen up, just when it would be available.
The rumor for the 4th was a round for a long time. And like I said, it got delayed a week.
Also, people on Reddit are reporting that they have called their local AT&T today and some of them are now confirming this preorder/availability timeline.
Went in Best Buy store to check on 920 availability and the rumors of in store preorder. They didn't have a date, but pricing was $150 with contract and $600 outright, with $50 deposit to hold. I mainly wanted pricing which they confirmed. And I'll never preorder again after Surface fiasco. They did confirm this price as preorder price, but said that it could change at launch. I'm with everybody else here, I've already lost interest in 920. I'm waiting for all WP8 and Android phones to be on the shelves before I make my decision. I may even wait for RIM to release....okay maybe not.

hey thx. I actually had the GN2 in my hands to and now really trying to hold off on picking it up. I am a GN1 owner and really starting to miss it. Still I do want to come home to windows mobile from which my phone addiction started. PPC-6600... good ol days.I've been saying for weeks now. I have a source that is fairly high up at a regional level for AT&T. Or trust BGR's source. Or just wait until next week and find out yourself.
Ask your source how much non contract will be. Usually ATT goes in 449, 549, 649, etc increments, so i am going to assume $549.
For everyone else, if it all plans out, preorders start this weekend for next week ship, for the 900, they actually shipped early prior to release. I got my 900 i believe on Thursday after i preordered whatever day it was when the phone officially released easter.
