I just got a call from Best Buy. Customers who pre-ordered the phone and are reward zone members can get the phone on the 9th. I am going to be out of town so I actually am not going to get the benefits but I wanted to share with the community the great news!

That'll be cool if its true for all Best Buys. I'll try to confirm on my pre-order today (California).

Re: Hero Oct. 9th!!!!!

Yea I'm not sure but they asked for my phone number when I pre-ordered and they called me at 10 when they opened. I'm on Central time, and you are on pacific so maybe they haven't gotten to yours yet? I hope it is true for all because I can't even get mine! Haha.

Re: Hero Oct. 9th!!!!!
 

how do you guys preorder anyways, is there a number to call, or do you have to go instore?

Re: Hero Oct. 9th!!!!!
 

Go into the store and ask. You have to purchase a $50 gift card to get the pre-order, but you can spend the gift card on anything you want.

Re: Hero Oct. 9th!!!!!
 

Has anybody found this in print yet?? I'm not about to call my Best Buy store, they are pretty clueless and even if they said no I wouldn't believe them.
