Now per telesales I was just told the middle of June...

Now how is it I can call 2 different departments and get almost the same release date but someother people say that the release date is tomorrow???

Called in again and talked to a different person and just asked right away when the BB 8330 would be avalible and she said mid June.

Unfortunately, there is no early release for special or pre-order sales.

Telesales and Tech support are both out source support for Sprint. With that being said, there could be a delay in communication until the release is final.

BBGEEKS is saying the 15th of May along with VZW.

More fuel for your fires.

Sprint, Verizon to get the Curve on May 15 | BB Geeks

King...to your dismay you're not the only one with valued information. This information came/comes from Sprint's Sales and Distribution Department.

End of discussion on my part. You're more than happy to challenge this by yourself.

April 20th, by the end of April, June 1st, May 7th, TBD whichever date you are given it all comes down to being a wait and see game.

I would much rather Sprint take care of all the problems they have found before releasing a substandard phone.

I prefer to pretend that brownberries has the correct information. Then maybe I will be able to sleep better!!

Verizon decided to launch their device today! The 8330 is available online and in most major stores. The early push came this afternoon after Sprint's Offical Release of the Curve on tomorrow.

Interesting considering that VZW has already sold their vCurve, validated by the folks here on the forum who have posted pictures of their phone.

I also called a CEO of a company that handles only business account in NY and FL and he told me that he got an email confirmation from Sprint today and also has talked with RIM and the curve will be coming out on May 10th and May 12th. I told him about the may 7th release date and he said he has not heard anything about that but the email that he received from Sprint today said May 10th.

Now the may 10th is for business customers and may 12th is for everyone else.
