I was told by a rep at verizonwireless that the Curve would become available
on May 12.

Can anyone else confirm this?

Now they are saying that it can be ordered by phone or on the internet on
the 9th. The date for the stores is the 12th.

Ah, ok, very good. I'd like to see one though. I have a Pearl now and am not
sure I really want the larger size, though I'd like the full qwerty
keyboard.

Thanks for the info.

Hmm.

I called the King of Prussia retail store today and was told they were
available online *now* - as we know, they are not in the online
catalog as of 5 May (Monday).

I then called *611 and was told that they would not be available this
week, and to check back regularly.

It is more than a little frustrating that all of the channels do not
have the same information - Verizon *has* to know when they will be
available. Why not let us pre-order?!

For any other vendor, I'd be inclined to agree. But could VZW really
find its a.s with both hands??

And now (6 May), there are a slew of references to the 8330 (how to
send mail, etc.) on the Web site.

On the amusing/exasperating side, I did get an Email response back
from Verizon yesterday saying that they "did not want to set
expectations that could not be met" (re: the 8330), and that they
could not comment on if or when the phone would be available!

I'm not the sharpest crayon in the box, but please don't insult my
intelligence so..

Egad.
