Keep checking back at Wally World. I went every day this week, finally found one last night. So they're THERE, you just gotta keep looking to find it.

Ugh... I tried ordering it online on T-Mobile's website a few minutes ago, only to find that it's out of stock. Then, I did as I said I would never do and attempted to order it from Walmart. It said there was only one in stock, but I didn't realize it was pickup only! The closest Walmart to me is at least 40 miles away and I don't drive, so that's a bust.

Ordered the 640 over the phone yesterday. Today, I got an email that the order was cancelled. Rep told me that the phone is on back order with no idea on when they will be available.

Wonder why some WalMarts across the country have them.

I checked 4 WM's here within 10 miles (we have a lot of Walmarts here)
No go at any of them...they're saying they won't have the 640's till tomorrow.

Got the last one at my local walmart. No wonder Windows phone isn't gaining traction. When an excellent phone like this comes out it is so difficult to find.

Are the 640's at Walmart for the pre-paid plan?
Can you move a t-mo pre-paid phone over to their regular service? I know you cant do that with Verizon.

The way the distribution of the 640 has gone someone at Microsoft should be shot.

its the same phone.. the "prepaid" one comes with a prepaid sim and starter kit. just install your existing sim into the "prepaid" phone. thats all.

i already replaced my wifes 635 with a 640 a couple days ago using the walmart prepaid t-mobile phone. i installed her "postpaid" sim.. booted up the phone. took about 20 min to restore her apps and settings. thats all it took

Yes, just pop in the SIM card and your good to go. That's what I did.

Great - now all I have to do is find one. Could be a long wait.

There are 17 Walmart's within a 50 mile radius of me, as of right now none of them have the Lumia 640 in store. I was lucky and picked up one at a Walmart close to me Thursday but I got the last one at that location and now it looks like none of the stores in my area have any.
