    Last night it hit me that I don't remember hearing if Mercury has passed through the FCC testing/certification. Today we hear it passed through the WIFI alliance. That got me thinking. When is this thing actually going to be available for purchase (not pre-order) but can be bought and delivered in 2 days? March, June, August? To me it seems like it's more than likely that it's still months away making the Feb product launch seem terribly anticlimactic. We've been buzzing about this thing since last fall.

    What say you

    No one really knows... there have been indications it would be very soon, and some that it might not be.

    Wait two weeks and then you'll have a better idea.

    It's BlackBerry, maybe at the same time the released of iPhone 8 or S8, ...., typical of BlackBerry.

    I hope it is soon after the event. My passport is looking a little long in the tooth.

    In my opinion, it will be immediately available.

    There will likely be a small delay leading up to a pre order date, couple days or a week then will ship a few weeks after that.

    Same here. I sold off everything and am waiting on the Mercury.

    Right now I'm using a Priv as my daily and it's not bad, but I really want the Mercury!!!

    Hopefully the pre-order will go up on launch day? I just hope they have enough units built to meet demand? Me thinks this is going to be a huge pre-order!

    Except BlackBerry isn't handling the sale of the device...

    I think if you are expecting the same ole same ole from BlackBerry Mobile it's not going to happen. They have picked up this licensing agreement to make money

    It's TCL really and they have a much better track record than BlackBerry, so there's still hope.
