Upgraded at the T-Mobile Store in the Staten Island Mall today. Found out that they had the biggest shipment out of all NYC stores (more than the flagship store on 34th st.) Rep told me something about them being the number 3 store in Galaxy S sales in the entire company and that's why they received so many.
If interested here's the info from the business card:
T-Mobile Store 3811
Staten Island Mall
2655 Richmond Ave
718-761-7390
Plenty of staff on hand, and although the store was slammed I managed to get in and out quickly.
Stock was limited to 16gb blue only.
Good luck and in case you didn't know this phone is amazing!

Just got back from the AT&T store and had a chance to play with the 900 while I was there. Spoke with the manager for a few minutes who mentioned that there 'may' possibly be some sort sales promotion for the 900 that will soon be announced at all AT&T stores. Seemed like he knew what it was, but wasn't giving up the goods. Also he alluded to an earlier than April 8th release date.
Just throwing it out there.
Well, for what it's worth, if you go to the Nokia site they have a countdown clock. The clock points to Friday, not Sunday.
Nokia supposedly booked times square for a release party on Friday at 7pm.
For what it's worth, I stopped by two ATT stores on the way home:
One swore the launch was the 14th, and if I preordered, I'd be able to pick it up that day.
The second said if I preordered now, my phone would be available in 14-21 days according to their system.
Figure I'll just stop by on Monday and pick one up from one of the worthless ATT stores in my area. May have to stop by on Friday/Saturday as well as see what's going on, as a launch on the 8th when the stores are closed has all the employees baffled.
Promotions
My Understanding is only "Corporate" Stores are going to get the device early. I tried to preorder The Lumia 900 online as an upgrade. I could not do it online and was directed by customer care to go to one of 3 Corporate stores in my area (Fresno, Ca)On 3-30-12 to complete the order. One of the reps I know there said Nokia is pulling all the stops. All the reps in store have Lumia's, some black ones, some Cyan ones. A rep from Nokia actually came to FRESNO to train and show the features of the phone and share marketing tactics. The rep said that this was a first as all the training for other phones, including the I Phone took place at out of town meetings. He said the Nokia is going first class all the way and the promotion in store will be substantial, and was confident they would have product in store by Easter Weekend.

Is the promo free phone on new plan ? That is already known. Also Amazon has the phone for a penny. If they have something else as a promo beyond this, that would be pretty amazing.

Wish I knew, but he wouldn't say. Just said to keep my ears open as it would be announced soon. I'm hoping its something good, and not just an accessory or two thrown in.
If you wait until it's available at Costco, they usually throw in a car charger and case and tax is only charged on the price that you pay, not the retail price of the phone.
Not sure if it's going to be available at Costco on launch date though. A few days wait might be worth it though to save some extra cash and get some freebies.
Any word on the promo ?
Haven't heard anything on my end. Plan on stopping by the local att store after work to see if I can prod more info out of them.
I'll take some nifty new Nokia Lumia 900 accessories like a case or bumper.

My coworker ordered a white one this morning 11/9. He got a confirmed ship date of 11/12 - 11/15. So I guess YMMV. $75 off is still not bad for a newly released phone (if your not in a hurry and are ready to sign up for another 2 year contract!).
Just ordered a few minutes ago and got the message below in the order confirmation. I did pay 4.99 for the fastest shipping method.
Order in process of being fulfilled. Estimated arrival date: 11/13/2012 - 11/14/2012
Ordered mine yesterday, but BestBuy send me an email today saying that my order is cancelled!!! Customer service lady says she has no idea why and will have to call me back in a few days.... anyone experiencing similar problems?
LMAO! (laughing at my frustration) I ordered the same paid faster shipping...yada yada yada.
BACKORDER. No problem because I acutally returned the NOTE 1 back in July so patients is a virtue.
But my order was NOT cancelled. fyi
I tried this... No dice.. "We're sorry, the promotion code you entered has expired."
I went to my local Hawaii Best Buy Store, and of course none of the stores here got any in today. However, a sales rep ordered me a black via their internal system. I paid for it, and and it upgraded me free to FedEx 2 day air. My receipt is showing an ETA of September 9, delivered to my house.

I ordered my Moto 360 online at bestbuy.com. Chose express shipping and had it the next day. On Oct 6.th BB showed no in-store pickup available but got fast delivery !
Hi all,
Sorry for the dummy question but I would like to know if there is a place we can currently see and test it in New York at the moment?
I moved in the US few months ago, so I'm not sure how this works.
Over the past week, I tried to check few places (carriers, electronic shops, ...) but I guess it is still being shipped, carriers allow pre-orders and will need a bit more time to have it in stores? I know AT&T will not have it in stores but I thought Verizon would have it by now... checked one 2 days ago and the guy said they should have it soon but doesn't when know when exactly.
Thanks in advance,
Axello
Verizon stores may not have it in stock for sale, but they should have display models available on their tethered cases.

I've been to like 20 stores in NJ..nada...no floor demo model or any in person/stock.... HTC might want to get these physically in stores. There chances to sell incrrease dramatically that way...lol
Granted I know I'll love it but I need to see/hold it first before I purchase.
Hopefully the Ice View case is better constructed than the M9 dot view case....that was an epic fail by them. I had it replaced every 2 months 6 times from the flip cover ripping off.
Verizon on RT22 has it in display and in stock
I've seen and used them at the Verizon stores in Queens Center Mall and on Wall Street. Not sure if they actually have any in stock for purchase since I'm with T-Mobile. I just wanted to get to a store that had them before I bought online from HTC since it's $100 cheaper with the discount code.
Verizon store on 108th st has it
Several Verizon stores have it in NYC.
staten island stores have them on display.
Thank you all!
I'll check again today!
Ok, couldn't see it on 42nd but it was on display on 33rd (opposite Macy's).
Definitely a nice phone, I think I'll look for a good deal now for an unlocked version.
The 100$ promo code is not valid anymore
AT&T has a promo running where you can pre-order a Gear S3 for $49 when purchased with a Samsung phone. I went from Note7 to S7 Edge on October 16th. I had already pre-ordered the Gear S3 at $249 but thought what the hell, why not call AT&T to see if they'd throw me a bone. The CSR asked me for my AT&T store receipt number from the exchange and got a supervisors approval to give me the $49 price. They had me cancel my online pre-order and put notes in my account for me to go in to a store today and get a new pre-order processed at $49. I did and they did and its supposed to ship November 18th.
The whole Note7 launch and cancel has been a debacle but I've been handsomely rewarded. I got a 256GB SD card with my first Note7, a Gear VR with the second, and now a Gear S3 for $49. That's on top of almost $100 in Samsung Pay first use credits for initializing it on 3 different phones. I also got my $100 credit for sticking with Samsung last week on my AT&T bill.
I'd imagine the Gear S3 thing is a YMMV and I'd suggest charm and gaining sympathy for what, as a Note7 owner, you've been through rather than brute force. Good luck.
I also noticed that at&t has the coral blue S7edge for sale
