Store Employees Confirm Feb. 11th

[bjanow]

I actually spoke with a CSR yesterday and started off saying, "I understand you can't talk about the TB but I just wanted to go over my upgrade options since I have 4 lines and one NE2 left." As it turns out I only get $50 more off with my 2 year upgrade vs on a line now that is eligible. So then we started talking about release dates, 4G pricing.. etc. According to him they try to keep discussion between CSRs down to a minimum due to the fact that they are talking to customers all day and will inevitably slip some info, unknowingly, into their convos.
However, he did say one telling thing. They like to release stuff on valentine's day. I laughed and we said goodbye.

I am begining to make nothing of everything. I was told a couple days ago that the Bionic release date is either Feb 24 or 28. I will believe the phones are in the stores when the phones are in the stores.
