Given that the Priv is preordable in UK,Holland,Germany (through shopBB, amazon or other stores), does someone know which 'big carrier' will sell it? The 6th of November is just around the corner, still no news/ads neither on Vodafone's,neither on Wind's websites.. FWIW I'm from Italy.
In Austria, A1 will have it, but no information on a date yet, and as far as I know, if A1 has it, vodafone has it too, the typically use the same version!
Typically Wind in Italy usually offers Blackberry phones, although I don't think they ever offered the Passport. At the moment, they only stock the Classic. Instead Vodafone Italia doesn't seem to offer BlackBerry phones to the general public, you can only get them with a special business tariff if you have a "partita IVA". At the moment TIM and 3 seem to have abandoned BlackBerry completely. However, with the Priv being Android, carriers might be more likely to offer it.

Do you want to buy a carrier subsidized phone? Otherwise it is much better to purchase it carrier free..
I am from Italy (but live in the States) and I will bring back 4 Privs for Christmas for the whole family..
I am sure you can have a friend who is visiting to purchase one directly from BlackBerry and bring it back to you (it will be also cheaper..)
Usually Italian carriers are really slow in adopting BlackBerry (even more than the other ones...) and it can be a possibility that they will not carry it at all.
I would prefer to buy it without contract, but I would love to try it before ;-) If the carriers will sell it, they probably would give its consumers the chanche to try it in their stores.. That's why I've asked! Glad to hear that maybe,even in Italy, Vodafone will carry it!

No pre-order on BBshop yet in europe other than UK
In France and pre-orderingis still not an option. the main carrier is Orange but I will buy an unlocked phone anyways. I think pre-order is still only available in the UK, but if not could you tell me the price?

So far, the only european price we've seen was 799€
Still pretty expensive with the 50euro a month... How long did it took for the Passport to drop in price? I really want to support BlackBerry (happy with my classic now) but if what I read was right, 799 euro is a bit too much for me.
