Great, I'm trying to order, and I'm lucky enough to have grandfathered-in a New-every-two discount. Or at least, I had one, and it says I'm eligible for a discount. Yet none is showing up on the order page. What do I do?? I'm guessing if I just place my order, they won't bother giving me a refund after the fact...has anyone been able to order that had a discount?

I did. Got it for 149.99 plus tax.

Sorry, let me elaborate, not sure what you missed. I didn't have to click anything extra. Just went right through it and it gave me my new every two discount.
 
all right, any guesses on when this sells out online? How many did V set aside for the presale? 50k? 200k? more/less?

I'll take a wild-A guess, and say they set aside maybe 100k units for online presale. Highest ACE number I've seen here is 2300, which came up about 10 minutes after. At this rate, maybe they're doing close to 14k units/hour, and will exhaust them all in about 6 to 8 hours. Lame and buggy stupid analysis here, lots of ways this can be wrong. But hey, take your own shot. I say sold out by mid morning.
 
Got the 16 GB model (already have an iPad, so no need to overdo it :D).

Got my confirmation email about 10 mins later. Estimated ship date 2/10/11. Also, under my itemized list of purchases, it lists "FEDEXSTDOVERNIGHT3PM $0.00"

Looks like they are shipping 'em all overnight.

Kudos to Verizon... the site was up early, and the whole process was easy and very painless. Lets just hope the network holds up the same, haha.

I was eligible for the New Every 2 discount on my primary line and it gave me the $100 discount automatically.

That's nice considering I'm paying over $3 more for the insurance now. :/
 
I just got my confirmation email. I am not sure but is order number the number in which you ordered out of the people that have ordered?
 
Ace # 800's already wow.. completed order before 3am EST.

just got order conf. took about 20min to arrive.
 
Interesting, I was #398 and the website said delivered on the 10th but the confirmation email says "shipped" on the 10th.

Also, I though Verizon wasn't going to have the insurance on this phone and you could only get AppleCare plan....guess that one debunked!
 
I was quick enough in the process to have no trouble. Ordered on Verizon at about 12:55 and was done in just a couple minutes, order number 595! I dont want to wait another whole week though, please FEDEX, just ship them.
 
pre order

i preordered using my brothers upgrade had to enter all his login info does anyone know the deal with that?
 
I thought it'd let me do an upgrade swap like it does when you buy another phone online on the website for Verizon but I didn't see the option. Hoping I'll still be able to do it!
 
I ordered around 2:55am. Only issue I had was that it wasn't displaying the "Business Name" field when I chose to ship to my work. Had to use Firebug to change the CSS on that field and it went through no issues.

Order #1774, shipping 2/10. Can finally get rid of this effing BlackBerry!

Great, so what am I doing wrong?? I'm just afraid if I submit, I won't be able to argue and get a refund for the upgrade price, yet if I wait for Verizon's customer service to open up, they'll be out of them...

It even *says* when I sign in that my one line is eligible for upgrade at a discount, I select it, and it just shows the base $199.99 price...so frustrating!
 
It worked for me! :)
