There is a new promo, same gig as before except it is now a $100 off coupon. The code is: MOTOXOOM
Go to the Moto store, order it and at the Amazon checkout apply the code.
Not as good as 25% but hey it cheaper and now better priced than the iPad2
People that pay retail are going to be real mad. I got it for 640 with the 25%

update: theoretical price for wifi only. but 700 for 4G and 540 for wifi seem like solid pricing.
You realized that was for the WiFi only, right? It's in the intro text
539? Winner.
Do they ship to Canada? Looks like eBay here we come

They're feeling pressure from iPad 2 pricing obviously. Considering Steve Jobs just called them out directly on pricing. This coupon is gonna turn into permanent pricing for sure. Its not even a special coupon, this is just offered to everyone ordering.
Anyone get:
There is a slight problem with your order. (See below.)
The credit card number did not match the card type that you selected. Please check the full credit card number and select the proper credit card type from the dropdown menu.
When there is no place to put in a credit card yet? This is what prevented me from buying during the last Moto offering.
This is going to wreck havok their on their site again. Not a smart idea to run another promo when they are just catching upto the first fiasco.

They gotta do something to get sales up though. This isn't a loophole promo either, this is the real deal.

Never mind, I just created a new account instead of using my normal Amazon account. Doubt Verizon will be thrilled with the returns they'll receive. Who is going to pass up a legit $100 back during the 14 day return period?

You still save a little. Just dont know if its worth saving that little. I also heard some people getting their restock fee waived.
This happened to me on the 25% order and it was a bad phone # that caused the message.

I'm really tempted by this. I have it in my cart and just have to press submit.
OK, I called to verify with AMEX. I just return the Xoom to Verizon and get copies of the receipts and a receipt for the restocking fee. I send those to AMEX and they credit my account for the value.
This is very tempting.

Okay.. I was able to reproduce problems. Big bummer! AT&T's probably just got some sort of web error messing things up. I know they'll have pre-orders for current customers.
I just ordered it for 500 off contract. AT/T owes me an override for the problems with my captivate so I plan to call them in the morning and get it at the upgrade price, but wanted to make sure DG didnt order 80 of them and buy em all...

Their website is all KINDS of screwed up. The Premier side of things won't let you order a data plan with the Atrix which prevents you from getting any discount...I don't understand how they can so completely screw up pre-orders...It's certainly not very confidence inspiring.
Oh, and FYI, this may be the "official" thread but there've already been several threads about pre-orders.

Hmmm. I'm on Firefox 4 B11. All is looking good.
Didn't see any options for the laptop and phone combo online, I'll go in and order in the morning
I realize that you are not getting a subsidized tablet here (if you pay full retail) but I was wondering if the month to month will still ding your credit and will they require a "deposit" to complete the activation process.
This is my only worry and I have yet to see anyone ask that so if anyone is familiar please let me know.
[edit] Well after calling around 5 Verizon Wireless stores I have come to the consensus that if you have bad credit and no existing phone line through Verizon that you will more then likely have to pay some sort of deposit for the month to month activation. They quoted me prices of $120-$400 for deposit if you have bad credit.
I was under the impression that the month to month plans didn't require any sort of credit check. I'm not willing to give that kind of information for something that I intend to immediately cancel within minutes. This is going to be interesting to see what happens.
Sent from my EVO using XDA App
From the information I was able to get they will ding your credit even just for month to month just to make the Verizon account, one representative even told me that you will get billed for the month and activation fee and will not be able to pre pay. That really sucks for some of us. I still plan on getting one but this brings up more expense on a already expensive purchase.
You may want to call were you plan on purchasing it and asking.
i will let you know what happens as i have bad credit also. i ordered through wirefly and they have to authorize a credit check through verizon. That will probably start today or tomorrow. If i pass then im sure you will too.
What if you plan to pay for the Xoom and all data fees through Debit? They can't possibly NEED your credit, I don't even own a credit card!

They still do. It's crap but they do. I suppose because they are risking you using minutes/data before any bill comes to you since they are a post-paid service. That is the problem, even with month-to-month data plans its post-paid. That way, instead of cutting you off like they should if you go over your data allotment, they can start racking up the charges.
I am on hold right now with Verizon, I am going to see if I can get the credit check done ahead of time like I did when I bought the HTC EVO. The guy just said there is no credit check on unsubsidized, but after I asked if you he was sure for the third time he had a revelation, said "oh ****, hold on". I am now holding on to see.
And so you know, even without credit card you still have a credit score .
EDIT: Yes there is a credit check if you buy unsubsidized. He said they have some "new conditions" or something new and that I would be "pleasantly surprised". Unfortunately, unlike Sprint, they have no pre-qualification. I am now calling Best Buy and hoping they will do it for me. I refuse to show up to pick up a 800$ tablet only to be told I have to pay between 100$ and 400$ for 1 month of a data plan I DON'T WANT.
I have been fine up to this point, but I am now getting ready to throttle someone.

Hopefully you don't need a 750 score to buy an overpriced device with a $20 one month plan.
Well if it's of any relief there is a Wirefly Video of this up showing the activation process and the ability to skip it entirely to use WiFi only!!!! It's at the end of the video.

I still think they are going to require activation, I hope that this allows for some wiggle room though.

It's all bull anyway. With sprint.. for the evo.. I had to do like 5 credit checks, it was weird it kept not saving. Each credit check said congratulations.. 150$ security deposit. For no apparent reason, the last time when I actually was calling to activate I was approved with NO security deposit. I wanted to say huh.. but I just kept quite and sure enough, my bill didn't have a security deposit on it . If they want a security deposit, I will demand a discount equal to the security deposit + a subsidy .
Having to pay a security deposit on 20$ worth of data.. frakkin toasters.

Depends on how many times you tried in a short amount of time.
Retailers are by law only allowed to send one credit check hit in a certain duration.
Systems I have worked on just finally balks at repeated requests during said time frame and will let the user on through with a flag for a rep to check up on it later - beats a lawsuit for ruining someone's credit further.
My 2 cents worth anyhow..
I am irritated by this whole process. You can't even addit to your existing VZ account. They are unnecessarily running a credit check. In this day and age you have to limit how many times your records are accessed.
All that being said, when I worked for Verizon landline, the credit check was to make sure you were who you said you were and that you didn't owe them money.
I will be curios as to how you make out. Has there been any feedback from people who have bought other tabs?
For those worried about a credit check and you have bad credit, I just passed mine so I dont think you guys have anything to worry about.
Just stopped into a Best buy and a manager told me that the $799 xoom would not require a credit check. I guess YMMV

Tell them it isn't and you just want to know if they have them in stock or on order...it will show up as a different product because they are trying to stop presales by blocking employees from knowing what it is. In fact is will show up as product 10000 from verizon wireless.

I don't think so...
The email said "unable to verify the information you provided or you have exceeded the number of lines of service that we allow customers to purchase online."
I am using Atrix on AT&T, and they cannot verify my information? What the hell? Why not just simply call me to "verify"?
It hasn't happened to me but I didn't sign in to order it. On the website it still says "In Progress" for me as well.
I haven't gotten an E-Mail from them about it being canceled, but I noticed earlier that the $50 credit was canceled from my card before it even went through.
I just checked my bank account and I saw that I had my $50 back as well.
Upon detailed inspection of my account the order still says Shipment Pending but in my bank statement the transaction doesn't exist. Like it never happened. On another note, if you check the AT&T store it now shows the lapdock as $99.99 and it is currently "Out of Stock."
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
They have taken the money from my account and haven't put it back yet. Maybe good news for me? Time will tell! Still showing shipping pending
I suggest if you all really want the Lapdock, to go get the $75 refurbished one now!
Sure you pay $25 more, but it's still a great deal and if you don't get a confirmation email with tracking # on your current order, then you are most likely SOL just like the whole HP Touchpad and Blackberry on Black Friday incident a while back.
I called them they told me they were on back order and when they ship they are going to charge my card
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium
Mine's cancelled also. I'm actually glad about it; almost got a buyer's remorse. Oh well, no more conflicts between blur or CM7. Cyanogenmod ftw.
same here. I called but the att guy knew nothing
I have pending shipment, no email about cancellation and money still gone. I want a dock! haha
what i'm curious about is are they still making lapdocks or have they switched solely to lapdock 100s now? Because I'm tempted to call ATT and have them switch my order to a refurbished unit in order to get one. If they're still making the OG lapdock then I'm not too worried. but if they aren't then I'm gonna be pissed =(
I received the email today after ordering on the 4th.
My email stated it was canceled because they were out of stock.
What pisses me off is many others received their order that ordered after I did.
I spent an hour on the phone Monday being bounced between ATT departments and everyone of them said they could not find any order I placed.
The last one I talked to stated the product was back ordered and I would receive it when it was back in-stock.
After this mess I am considering dropping service. I am not that concerned with the dock itself but I have an issue staying with a company that clearly does not fulfill its obligations after the confirmed an order.
I second your thoughts.
Once they confirm order,they must fulfill that.
If you all have confirmation papers of your order, you can try what I did. I got my Lapdock today by calling first to my ATT Store I go to and I had them price match it for me for $50. All I had to do was call the ATT customer care and cancel my order and have them put a note in my account for the store in my area to do the price match.
I heard from another thread that ATT had 4000 on backorder and I used that line as leverage.
Sent from my Atrix XDA Premium App
I did the same thing today. Had to call all three stores in my town to find the last one, but they did match the price and I carried it out with me.
Called and cancelled my order too so that should free one up for someone!

I just did the same thing this morning. Called a nearby store and asked if they could price match my online purchase. They said no.
Called another nearby store and this store said yes. Took all of 5 minutes to buy the dock, no questions at all whatsoever. I just gave them a copy of my confirmation email and I was out of the door. I am sure local stores are dying to get these out of their inventory because I doubt they sell anymore, they don't even carry the Atrix anymore. I don't know why the first store with 14 in stock didn't want to do it, the second store only had 2 in stock.
I, too did the price match thing with a local store! I called about 5 different At&t places until the one 5 miles away agreed to the price match...but said he couldn't give me a discount right at the store...but would credit the excess to my next bill. So I said, sure why not...I just didn't wanna wait and wait and wait for nothing from At&t anymore..and I am very happy with it! Yay!
The new lapdock for Atrix 4G isn't listed online anymore at AT&T in the regular store which means they won't be selling it through the regular online store anymore. (Refurb still listed for $75). If an item doesn't show up, it's gone for good is what I was told by AT&T. Lapdock does however still show up in the Premier store for $299 and is available.

Not too much actually. After sales tax my net savings was only going to be $11.50, which I would certainly be glad to save, but is a small percentage of the total cost. When the net savings starts to get above $30 dollars then I'm going to groan a bit if I miss out.
