    Just called 3 rogers plus stores in calgary
    -1st store said they just got them in, but were not allowed to sell them until they got confirmation on their system that it releases today, rep told me most likely going to start selling them next week
    -2nd store said the same thing, except that they would be able to start selling tomorrow
    -3rd store had no clue about anything lol no stock, no release date

    Also called rogers directly on 611, and the lady said the system shows the release date as August 9th, so it should be updated shortly in stores

    You can believe me or not, but what reason would I have to lie?

    Today August 9th 09:30am i just spoke to a friend of mine at Rogers who is a rep in Montreal Canada.

    Said that the BB9900 now appears in his system and that the order is coming on the 10th of August

    Im not with Rogers but if Bell dont get their stuff together fast i have no problem switching as i am not under contract anymore
    I live in Montreal too and I cannot wait. Let's hope what he's saying is legit.

    This is the first positive news in a while! I've called around and no joy but I was told by one Rogers store that there's a 50/50 chance they'll get them in with their shipment tomorrow at 3. Another guy put me on hold and then said there's a shipment due in this afternoon and some might come in that, he took my number and said he'd call me back.

    Future Shops and Best Buys were much less positive in that they thought soon, like before the end of the month.

    If we do a HUP over the phone, are they available now with the Aug 9th release date?

    I have a 514 number for Rogers, just called them now and the guy had no clue whatsoever. He's like "we didn't receive any memo about the phone" and "usually Rogers would update the website to build the hype prior to releasing the phone".

    Not sure what to make of it.

    Did you do a HUP or just buy it outright? and was it the original $549, or the rumored $499?
