Probably a question that's been answered elsewhere...but if you unlock this phone, is it then good to work with Verizon?

I also pre-ordered a SG 256 and got charged at 7am EST today. No shipping notifications and the app says shipping soon. I doubt these will ship overnight for tomorrow as the site says 2 day shipping. Wondering if I lost out on release day delivery even with waking up at 3am to pre-order.

Mine is shipping overnight, I’m assuming everyone’s is.

At least we now know it's not just us! Sounds like they're running through crates of one particular type at a time...and we weren't the first ones sent out.

It would be nice if Xfinity sent actual expectations though..."expect to have all phones shipped by _____". The "shipping soon" thing is really irritating.
 
Preordered SG 256GB 30 minutes after it opened, got charged this morning, still no email but Fedex Delivery Manager is showing a package from Comcast headed my way overnight from Fort Worth, TX. Slated to arrive tomorrow.
 
Woohooo! Now lists as shipped Nov 2nd in billing! No arrival or tracking, but it's happening!

You're probably on deck army.
 
Xfinity (Comcast) is the Devil. Sometimes price isn't everything.
Might be, but cleanest installation for most homes.

ATT and Google fiber force using corporate equipment, and try to wedge their way into access to your home network. Comcast allows individually managed modem and easily firewalled self controlled home network.
 
Oh wow yeah totally misread it. That's pretty crazy, huh? Don't most companies make you pay it off before they'll unlock it?

Yea, I am coming from ATT and had to pay off my 7+ before I could unlock it. Another awesome benefit to Xfinity Mobile!

So glad you said this because I pre-ordered at the same exact time as you with the same exact phone lol. I just checked my fedex delivery manager and it says the same thing - Overnight from Forth Worth, TX and expected delivery tomorrow. No shipping email yet, but this is all I needed! Now I can rest easy and look forward to tomorrow! Thanks again.
