You buy the GSM, no one uses CDMA in Canada anymore.

Well, maybe you missed on the Amazon site where it says the CDMA version is not released yet? I was checking to see if you saw that

Same here with Best Buy clueless idiots. I simply asked if my local massive best buy would be one of the Best Buy stores carrying it tomorrow, and the girl on the phone sounded so embarrassingly oblivious. She was like, "well, since this phone I have never heard of is not on our website, best buy isnt carrying this new model." To that, I replied, "the entire internet disagrees with you. I hope you are right. Amazon probably does too."

So incredibly shocking how incompetent the marketing and sales chain logistics are with BB, every, single release. We have to inform stores that have agreements to sell the phone that 1) Blackberry still exists, and 2) they are indeed going to be selling the phone!? This is crazy. How in the world can BB sell these to people when that ^ is your sales team, haha??

Anyone surprised that the material safety data sheet lists the battery as 3.44Ah?
That's almost 3505mAh, but not quite. What gives?

May be Amazon just tailored for a small batch for cb geeks to release some pressure of midnight madness... Let's see what happened in the 12:00. Feel like Cinderella for Amazon and BBM. Pumpkin?

Did see that it said "not yet released" - thinking this is because it's not May 31st yet, although hoping the device is physically in stock and orders will be filled and shipped tomorrow based on pre orders today. The post from Blaze indicated that CDMA will only be available online via Amazon. Again, I could be mistaken.

If you can't afford it, don't buy it. Not worth the debt.

The press release makes it sound like the CDMA version is only available on Amazon, not Best Buy.

It appears to be sold out now. A while back it said 16 or so left in stock then switched to pre order like you saw. Some of us were lucky enough to actually order it and get a next day or 2-3 day delivery date.

Only select Best Buy stores will have the phone. Tomorrow, when the phone goes live on their website, it will tell you on the device's page if it's available for pickup.
