    I think the site sells phones at a little discounted retail rate. It says "expected release date October 1st."

    I think you pre-order the phone as it says and they will mail it out too you at a little discounted retail rate when the phone launches. I dont think it is anything to get excited over, as I have never heard of this site. it is a good find, although take it for what it is worth, thats all.

    Heres to definitely hoping, but that is in less than a week. I dont think Verizon would release it without any real promotion to consumers, right? haha

    I dunno - With all the e-mail hype and direct mailings about "what will it feel like" (I just got mine yesterday) - I wouldn't think they would drag this thing out longer than a few weeks. "Normal" people will forget about it after about a week.

    Verizon releases a lot of their devices before they even start promotions. The Dare was out a few weeks before any commercials even started airing.

    Also, I noticed with the launch of the Dare and Voyager: Launch dates were never officially announced. All was speculation and confirmed from insiders even up to 7 days before actual product launch. I can see Verizon just releasing the thing before the G1 to maybe to get some customers wanting to switch. And yes, you're right, most advertising was done when the product already launched.

    Ok, thats a good point. Just gotta wait and see.

    Regarding the November 1st date; maybe it is not a good idea because of the election so close to its release?

    It says "Expected Arrival Date" not release date.

    I'll tell you this now...

    Verizon has never released a phone with a retail price of 699.99

    And I've worked at Verizon.

    Holy cow. If it stays for $599 I'm not buying this. I was hoping maybe $299 but $600 is a little out of my league

    I noticed the same thing. I was on here and engadget and boygenius every day starting in april when i was getting a new phone waiting to see when the Curve was going to be released. I noticed promotion AFTER the device was released. I bet they just want to see how popular a device is without any real advertising so they can know what to expect in the future. Just my $.02
