It is safe to say that it will be avilable immediately after Jan 30th,

More Confirmation BlackBerry Z10 Available January 30th from Vodafone UK - N4BB

**trinipoco** · 01-28-2013, 04:46 PM

Hopes this is the case.

**panterarck** · 01-28-2013, 04:46 PM

I was just about to post this. Now I need some confirmation from Verizon

**Nindia** · 01-28-2013, 04:49 PM

A friend of mine who owns 20+ Rogers stores said that they're expecting Z10 early February. I highly doubt they'll be available at launch because he would have them rolling in to his stores already to stock up.

**drummer_god** · 01-28-2013, 04:52 PM

not that i'm in the UK, but the thought that the white Z10 won't be available until weeks after the black Z10 really sucks.
i hope this is not the case here in Canada, as i want a white one ASAP.

With this it is safe to say that RIM will do Mohamad Ali thing and make it available in UK, Canada, USA & Dubai on Jan 30. Most carriers around the world within days..Go Rim Go..I am so pumped up, I feel like I am Thorsten now..)) Imagine what must be going throught RIM mgmt, employees, board of directors, share holders..Let's do this togeather..

Even first week of Feb is good..Apple does not make it available for days/weeks..

Did anyone else notice?? No need for a Blackberry plan!!!! Can access email, internet and BBM without a specific BB plan! Brilliant!

**svelt** · 01-28-2013, 05:07 PM

Guy "in the know" (someone relatively higher up at one of the big 3 mobile carriers in Canada) claims Feb 5th will be the day. Take with a grain of salt.

Oh, good lord. I thought I'd be strong and possibly save up my pennies but it looks like I may have to do some negotiating with some of my people!

**LazyEvul** · 01-28-2013, 05:16 PM

Interesting, very interesting. My guess is that Rogers is going to get it at the same time here in Canada, but Bell and Telus are going to release February 5th. Which kind of sucks, I was hoping Telus wouldn't drag their legs with this one. Oh well, if I get really inpatient maybe I'll buy one outright from Rogers!

Is this only for Voda UK or for all carriers around the globe, esp TMO US?

**AbuYazeedUK** · 01-28-2013, 05:26 PM

So an unlimited data plan on giffgaff should do nicely, cool.

ughh i hate waiting lol I'm with Telus and they still haven't sent out any pre-order email newsletter...every other carrier in the world already announced their pre-orders! maybe Telus will have a super late release. =[

**Bold_until_Hybrid_Comes** · 01-28-2013, 05:38 PM

Rogers please don't let me down

My guess is that they're going to announce pre-orders right after the launch event, and hit stores about a week after.

**blkitr** · 01-28-2013, 05:48 PM

Quick question what time is launch in uk? Reason I ask is because according to doc you can order online @ 5pm, trying to figure out how after launch it will be available?

**Peevish** · 01-28-2013, 05:53 PM

Didn't EE twit that they would have it available on the 30th?

Apparently the RIM webcast starts at 10am ET. That would be 3pm in Britain. So sales start two hours later.

**dannyeo** · 01-28-2013, 06:07 PM

might be too much to ask, but any info on asia release?

If true will be interesting! Can't wait to see if it is true!

**iToya** · 01-28-2013, 08:18 PM

The suspense is killing me. I want to take a leap here and just say that I will be able to walk into a store and snag one of these phones on my lunch break. I don't have time sitting around waiting any longer than that...

*sigh* a girl can only dream..

**Ben1232** · 01-28-2013, 08:40 PM

I went into the Vodafone store again yesterday & the Vodafone employee told me he knew nothing and to come back on the 31st.

He did mention that they have been asked to read and learn about BB10 then they have to pass quiz master tests about the phones.

I'll be knocking on their window at 8:45 come Thursday.

**Ben1232** · 01-29-2013, 12:56 PM

Vodafone store manager just told me BB10 will be available in store at 5pm on Thursday. I asked why they'll only allow 30mins of sales and he said "It's only BlackBerry 10" :s
