so... AT&T preorders tomorrow? in a few hours?

I wasn't staying up to pre-order, but I did check to see if anything changed.

Yes I get the enhancing experience message like others so will check back after 5:30 although actually will check back every hour on the hour once I wake up lol

0725 EST, and nothing yet on the website. I have to set up some servers and switches today, so I may not make it in to a Best Buy location... And I'm going to miss the Ravens game!! Frustrating, since I set aside the cash for the pre-order (my wife is finally joining the modern age, so I'm trying to reserve two).
 
The maintenance is only on their online account portal, folks... not their "sales" side of things.

Not saying we won't see the pre-order options show up later, just saying don't confuse or assume things based on a separate incident.
 
Ugh, i'm trying not to spend my check until I preorder...because Im sure some of my bill is past due. But with no official announcement I'm kinda ****ed

...How am I supposed to buy the phone on contract without logging in?

Best Buy will start taking pre-orders for the 8X and 920 tomorrow (10/21). The contract price of 99.99 for the 8X and 149.99 for the 920. Unfortunately, the only color options are Blue for the 8X and Black for the 920.

How do I know this? Well I do work in BB Mobile, and this is what showed up in our employee news. Yes, the 8X contract price is 50 dollars less than Walmart's. However, it should be noted that the 8X price was for T-Mobile, and T-Mobile may charge a higher contract price like they did with the S3 initially (249.99 with a 2 year contract).

All that is required is a 50 dollar deposit. So to be quite honest, I am not sure if the contract prices listed above reflect that of after the deposit or not. I read it a few times over, and it doesn't seem like that is the case.

Edit: This also leads me to believe that, due to the promotion BB is having, the Lumia 920 will have a contract price of 199.99, and the 8X at 149.99.

Nothing on BB.com- am I missing something? Why would BB take per orders before AT&T?
 
That HTC 8X with 8GB of storage for $99 looks really overpriced compared to the 920 with 32GB of storage at $149. I don't think HTC will sell many at that price.

If the 920 was $199, the 8X would have the right price at $99.

I think HTC has made a big mistake here.
 
BB had it in all colors, but no date on availability. phone guy said "these usually ship pretty soon after the preorder date"
 
AT&T supposedly will have pre-order availability after 5pm CT today. Website is down until then & online chat sales agent says pre-order is among the changes being made...
