I mean... waited for 3 years, a week shouldn't matter that much, but still kind of disappointed. Oh well, at least the black phone is back for pre-order too. Still deciding to go with white or black. I guess wouldn't matter too much if we're all gonna get the 3rd party cases.

Just playing safe by asking.

This 950 XL will work fine on the Rogers network ?
They aren't selling so when I get my new phone I don't want to find out it won't work.
Can anyone confirm for me.

Unless Rogers is using some crazy frequency that nobody else in the world is using, it should work. Might go check the specs page and compare the wireless bands to what Rogers is running just in case.

Is this changed for pre orders placed yesterday as well?

No my email from them says Nov 25th , I think this is if you go onto the website as of today or late yesterday once they sold out that it moved to Dec for that second batch.

Anyone know exact time the stores will have them in stock to full fill in-store pre-orders?

Are they supposed to be emailing us at some point?

Different people have gotten different answers. The rep at my local kiosk told me the 20th, others have been told the 25th, and still others the 26th.

I don't think we'll know until they're physically delivered to the stores. Just like online store chat reps had no information on when the 950 xl would be available for pre-order AN HOUR BEFORE it started taking pre-orders. Yeah, that happened. I chatted with two reps an hour before the store started taking pre-orders, and they had zero information.

As I said before....MS has a certain disdain for these phones.....nobody knows anything.....Their Mobile Phone division is quicky becoming the biggest joke in the industry.

Honestly, my opinion is that both of these phones were leaked like crazy. When they announced these phones on Oct 6th, Panos asked the audience (mostly comprised of journalists) 'why do you guys have to do that?' (referring to the leaks and articles written about the unannounced phones). It sounded like he wasn't too happy. Maybe that's why they are keeping their mouths shut? Trying to keep a little mystery about these devices? I dunno, just my guess.

This mystery has sent a lot of their target audience to other platforms....they dont have the luxury of mystery like Apple or Samsung do.....They need to put these out there and let their target audience KNOW when the hell they can get it in stores.....it is not that difficult....if it is, then people should be fired.....

I understand that it may have driven some windows phone fans away, but it's also brought people from other platforms to look at this device. It did for me, I was a die hard Android user until I saw the 950. Immediately I knew this was my next phone, and I'm not the only one.
