    i tried the end of a few good men, you want answers, i want the truth... but i choked and forgot half of the speech, then i followed them to the next spot and did the breakfast club scene, but was out done by a girl that did a whole song and dance routine.

    congrats! it's not as easy as it sounds with people watching.
    I may have seen you. My first crack at it was on Friday at dundas square with a short scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark. Someone did the "You can't handle the truth" as well as Toy Story and the Hangover.

    That was me, I did you can't handle the truth, I could have gone on, but I didn't think they really wanted the whole thing, plus I had forgotten it when I looked out at all those torches recording me, I got there right after the toy story guy, so, I think I missed you. Did you win Saturday?

    My brother works for rogers and this is the exact convo we just had

    Him: torch is delayed
    me: liar
    him: nope
    me: oct 1st?
    him: 1 week delay
    him: something like that
    me: how sure are you
    him: close to 110%

    Apperently they sent out a global message in the rogers intranet informing of the delay.

    Take it with a grain of salt, he might be lying to me just to **** me off, but if anyone would know, it would be a rogers customer service rep who is currently @ work..

    EDIT: If the news hasn't broke out by then, I will upload a picture of the news report on the intranet that informs of the delay at around 4pm eastern....

    everytime i talk to customer service they just say the website will be updated before they know, which is complete BS

    why do they have to play these damn games, why cant they say "it will be here this date, bring money"

    I don't have a pic yet, but here is what is exactly written on the rogers INTRANET

    "Late last night we reported that bell delayed the anticipated laugh of the blackberry torch 9800. We have learned that all carriers, including the rogers brand is being impacted.The reasons are ranging from production line problems to network/firmware problems. We have yet to update our website to confirm the new official release date"

    There you go boys, as official as it gets!

    ...Just got off the phone with Telus:

    The CSR told me that they are planning to release the Torch at some point next week. She did not have a specific date, so this would point to an October 1 release, but it could really be as early as the 27th.

    If you're wondering, I used the voice recognition to get to the Telus BB reps...so I would hope that they have at least half a clue...for what it's worth
