Some guy on Twitter is claiming to have spoken to a few senior folks on the phone and was told pre-orders would begin at 8AM EST on T-Mobile's website.

Take that with a grain of salt.

I called 611 earlier and they said it would go live at 12:01 just like Apple's. Sadly, neither of those has come true for me.
 
Signed up for tmo's preorder bs never got an email so.... maybe it is going to be 8am.
 
I think the sleep depravation and repetitive clicking motions is having some type of negative synergistic effect on my mental state.

I think there's just a bunch of samsung geeks doing it for the lulz.
 
had to be a deal with the phone carriers to get people to order on their sites.

i'm not an apple hater at all, i'm refreshing constantly but this is a huge fail and horrible to their customers.

Same, I thought they would email us a couple hours before 12 AM.. Now I am contemplating if I should go shower or keep hitting the refresh button.
 
This was handled so poorly. They should have known the amount of interest, and if they weren't going to launch at the same time as the other carriers and supposedly Apple they could have at least sent out an email. Or sent out an update if they were having tech issues....

Yeah their twitter has been bragging all day, now they probably have the twitter team duct taping and gluing their inter webs back together...
 
They do know the amount of interest. Tim Cook himself said this would be the mother of all upgrades. They knew about this. I bet they prepared for this. But something must be causing Apple and T-mobile to be off line.
 
I'm pissed. I switched from ATT to T-Mo a matter of hours ago. When I preordered my iPhone 5 from ATT, no issues whatsoever. This is disgusting.
