I can't really say how i feel about this if it's true.. especially if the rumored pricing is true..
http://www.androidcentral.com/wal-mart-sell-nexus-one-soon
what was the rumored price?
$99 is the rumored price.. not sure where that number came from though.
And no T-mobile on that list of carriers?
I know for sure Walmart ONLY sells locked and subsidized devices, so this will be bundled with T-mobile or - most likely - Verizon. If Google continues its current model, you will probably just sign up with service and need to go online to order the phone. They may have a display model, but I bet they will not actual "sell" the device. Right now their mobile center is more like those kiosk booths at the mall.

in stores walmart only sells locked phones but on their website they have sold unlocked phones in the past and i believe they still do, though i have not checked since the g1 came out.
My wife washed her phone with her pants over the holiday, and I went all over to find a replacement. Not wanting to extend my contract (since I want to get rid of it after its over), I had no choice but to look for an unlock or unsubsidized phone. At least during the holidays in store and online I could find no option with out service and seemed to list the same stock.
Of course, retailers can pull those things during the heavy shopping seasons too.
I sort of doubt Google would change their strategy. If T-mobile can't get Nexus Ones; not sure why Wal-mart. I know Wal-mart is a major chain, but normally doing business with Wal-mart is a major pain.
I hope this is a load of Bravo Sierra!
I just purchased my N1 last nite...

If you have been on your service for a while then the telco will give you the unlock codes, I unlocked several blackberries with t-mo customer service and my girl unlocked her storm through verizon.
I think you just have to be a customer for more that 6 months or something. Just tell them your going out of country.

I just noticed in the actual ad a typo FAIL that says:

It now "appears" that the Walmart Nexus add was a mistake http://www.businessinsider.com/walmart-says-it-has-no-plans-to-carry-the-nexus-one-2010-1
From Mashable.com
Update: Walmart says the phone erroneously appeared on the site by mistake. Their statement: “Due to a technical error, this item erroneously was displayed on our site. We’re working with our partner Let’s Talk to have it removed as quickly as possible. We have no plans to carry Nexus One in Walmart stores or online at Walmart.com at this time.”
No comment I guess?
EDIT: Sorry, I just noticed this has been posted.
If they claim they aren't selling it in stores or through that site... then wtf is it even doing on that "erroneous" page? Seems like a very difficult error to make.
I knew it wasnt fesible, Att, Sprint and Verizon without Tmobile? Hard to believe.
Ok, end of story.
Just got back from making the rounds to 4 sprint stores.
Two each corp stores/normal outlets.
At the one (corp) store I use they said that even if paying full price....ie, no upgrade no contract, they were only getting 10 each at the stores.
As I traveled to the other stores they told me without me mentioning the 10 per store thing, that they would only be getting 10 units.
My store guy says to go to Best Buy and get one and then come back and he will activate it and throw in a few accessories.
They ALL said that the big box stores would be getting more than the sprint stores would be getting.
I know this might not make those who have an upgrade eligibility available to them, but those like me who will be paying full price might need to know.
That's it.

You must live in the middle of nowhere, because the big sprint stores out my way (Baltimore) are getting way more than 10. The closest one to my house said 200 atleast on launch day.
Where do you live?
I checked at my local Sprint store yesterday. They said that they had no idea how many Evo's they would have. She said it could be 5 or 20. I'm going to another store tomorrow to see what they tell me.

Oh ****, dude. I'm in Greenville right now too. Where did you ask? I'm planning on getting mine from the Haywood Rd store. Let me know your results.
I'm just outside Chicago, NW 'burbs.
1 of the stores is a repair/tech center, they all said the same thing and I didn't say anything about numbers till they did!
But it would be hard to believe that ANY sprint store gets more than 20, that number of 200 sounds just bragish by the store clerk.
Best Buy in Naperville Illinois, states they will have enough for Pre-Orders with a cut off date for guaranteeing them of 28th this month.
I Went in some big sprint dealers in my local area in New Jersey. They all said that they wont know how many they would be getting. But they know whoever pre-order will most deff get theres before those paying full price or upgrade with no pre-order.
Most likly doing pre-orders on phones like this. They send in how many pre orders they got and just order that many. Same with the palm pre. people had to wait 2-3 weeks before they got another shipment in of palm pres.
Like the user said above i think they would just get about 10-20 and half of those or most will be for pre-orders. If those people dont pick they order up with in 2 days. then its just a first come first serve thing
Today I went to a Sprint store that's by my work (scouting a "plan B" store in case the one by my house runs out) and asked the following:
Q: Are you taking pre-orders for the EVO
A: No.
Q: Will you be opening early on the 4th?
A: No. 9AM like usual. (the one by my house IS opening early)
Q: How many phones will be here on the 4th?
A: Not sure but if you get here before noon you will probably get one. Probably not if you wait until 7PM.
Q: Really? Do you anticipate a long line when you open?
A: At the Palm Pre release there were 15 people already in line when I opened.
Q: Any advice?
A: (Laughs)If it ends up being like the Palm Pre release, which had as much buzz before it as the EVO, it will be crazy for a couple of hours and then dead.
If you come here around 11AM or noon there will probably be no wait.
So, it sounds like there's going to be more than 10 phones there on the 4th. This is a small store that's kind of off the beaten path so I imagine the larger stores will have more.
I've also got a guy at a Radio Shack that said he will put one aside for me if I call him in the morning of the 4th. He made it seem like I had nothing to worry about. I think I'm (sort of) covered but I am still worrying and obsessing about it
HTC's next super-phone should have a time machine built in to get me to the next upgrade.
yeah the store b y me pretty much said the same thing. the manager said around 100 phones. they are opening an hour early. he said come around noon and there should be no wait. he said sprint orders phones from numbers from recent launch dates. he said when the palm pre released the store got 90 phones and they were sold out by the end of the day. he said the evo has got a lot more attention so it should be around 100 phones this store will get. oh yeah, no pre orders.
watzone69: I checked 2 stores in the Pflugerville area this weekend with much the same list of questions...same replies. Come before the end of the day, should be ok.
Radioshack where I live said they are getting 10 phones plus the number of preorders they get.
Sprint is anticipated a large order. If you call most of the large stores they will not be taking pre-orders not because of the lack of interest. They are not taking pre-orders because they will most likely have enough to feed the frenzy for the first 4-6 hours.
The Droid Incredible was the same way. There wasn't a long line but more so of a steady pace that last the whole day. It was gone the next. Now nationally backordered.
Just get in a little early or call on June 3rd and make nice with a manager and tell them you would really like one on June 4th. I did that with the Incredible and they held one for me. I just got them to talk about the phone, how business, do you like the phone, etc. Then they said - "Hey look I will hold one for you, give me your name".
Don't spend your wheels worrying about it. You have to remember there are Best Buys, Radio Shacks, Sprint Stores and Independent resellers as well. Lot's of ways to get one.
The Radio Shack I went to said they haven't even had any inquiries about it. After I pre-ordered mine he said he would call the district manager and make sure they had it for me.

LOL! that was funny
The Taylor Swift SE-X10 is what caught my attention. Guess Im gonna have trouble choosing now :-\
lol
I seriously question the validity of Best Buy being the exclusive launch for the Surround. I guess we'll find out soon enough.
Being one of the debut phones of WP7 under AT&T, the AT&T store is definitley going to have this. I would expect this, especially after after all the hype that was built for WP7 phones.
Well, after asking an ATT corporate store and multiple Best Buy's, it seems like it is true that it is exclusive to BB. Not sure the reasoning behind it but I put my preorder in anyhow. Usually phones are the only thing I buy from BB anyway since they give instant rebates on phones instead of the usual mail-in variety by ATT.
Just for the record.. Since people don't understand it still. Best Buy and Best Buy Mobile are different. There are standalone stores in malls and whatnot for Best Buy Mobile. And they truly do offer the cheapest prices on cellphones(physical in store that is). Instant rebates, none of that mail crap. And I think we're the only ones who offer legit iPhone insurance. Just saying, I feel like people are giving the downs to BBY because they over price everything. But BBYM is completely different. Anyway..
Can't wait to see all these new phones! We were fiddling with the Dell Streak today, sucks vanilla wise. Custom rom would make it worthwhile though. But I don't see us selling many of them with the $300 UPG/ACTV price. And we were lolling the entire day over the OtterBox for the Streak.. enormous!
I guess Best Buy Mobile isn't taking any more preorders?
I found a website that says they are taking preorders: http://www.mobilecityonline.com
Seems to be $600 for most of the WP7 phones, $100 more for it to be unlocked. I'm thinking I'll pass on it due to the price, but maybe someone else will be interested.

Radioshack and Best Buy alternate between lowest prices, depending on the phones. They don't do mail-in rebates, either. Not that RS is getting the Surround, but the point remains
Well, it seems Best Buy has put it back up
I hoped that we'd be able to preorder this device, but it appears AT&T isn't doing any type of preorder. I talked to them and they said you have to wait till November 8th.
I did notice Letstalk and Amazon Wireless have the devices up, just as coming soon though.
I got a best buy mobile and a att store within 20 feet of eachother in the mall here. I DONT think its as silly as having about 8 tmobile booths through out the entire mall.
There is also another att store in front of the mall. Its just crazy!
Hard to find...
The HTC Surround just showed up in Best Buy's inventory today. I work there full time and I've already got my pre-order. I did it on day one so as to guarantee my phone. Bad news is that the Best Buy I work at (small-end of the large format stores that sells appliances and installs car audio) has only 10 handsets on order. Hope you guys got your orders in early. As far as I can tell they will also have at least one case available for the phone in the stores house brand, Rocketfish. Can't wait to get this thing so I can ditch my Fuze.
Available at AT&T
Trust me it will be at AT&T starting Monday morning. ;-)
Here is a picture of the one I picked up at BB in Atlanta TODAY.
Surround Available at AT&D tomorrow morning
I am picking up my Surround at AT&T in the morning. They have 10 in stock.
AT&T require a minimum $15 data plan which gives you 200 megs monthly which is sufficient for my use since I mostly use WiFi at home. So the phone will cost me $200 and about $45 monthly. The surround reviews look very good. Though I may have preferred an HD7, only T-Mobile has them now and their service would cost a minimum $80 per month.
I just ordered mine online. Should be here in 2-3 days, assuming everything goes well.
Also, you can pre-order the LG from AT&T. Not sure why they didn't let you pre-order the others...
Just picked one up at my local ATT
Just got one, so the ATT stores have the Samsung and the HTC, we shall see how this plays out (gota learn a new windows now)

Here in Canada, Rogers just LOVES to toy with their customers. They did a surprise launch (not lunch lol) today in Toronto with NO WORD of it at all (thanks to Mobilesyrup.ca). I obviously had to check with stores and authorized dealers locally (about 30 minute away from Toronto), a total of 10 stores. Here's the funny thing: not only did they not have it but had no clue they were even getting the Tab this month. Jesus! Sometimes I wonder why didn't I just move somewhere close to the border.
God damn it Canada, I love you but sometimes you get in the way of me getting me gadgets!
So what did they serve? Cheeseburger? Chinese? Shake and bake? Mexican?
I still dont understand the milk in a bag concept.

Yeah, nobody in Vancouver was aware of it launching, I was told "next week" asking around today, though it's live on the Rogers site now, under Rocket devices.
I'm on the fence about which one I buy, the Rogers or the Bell, plan is to unlock and use on Telus anyway, though I might have to pay for a month's worth of service from Rogers or Bell first.
Not a fan of the white backplate on the Bell/International unit at all, the carbon fauxber on the Rogers/AT&T unit is probably a better choice for my tastes. Though I'm really curious if they went with the thin aluminum like the Captivate battery cover, or it's just the same pattern on plastic.
The other thing keeping me on the fence is the (weak) rumour that the Bell version still has voice enabled. That might make me switch to white, since somebody like Phantomskinz will release a decal for it soon.
If there's no voice in Canada, I'll need to find a local Micro-SIM adapter and I'll get the Telus $20/500Mb tablet flex plan (bumps to $35 if you go over, up to 5GB, but only works with Micro-SIM, even though it's not supposed to be iPad specific).
CONFIRMED this morning, Bell has NO VOICE either! I was speaking with a higher up rep today about it. Still says it is coming on the 17th however....
numerous threads on here to enable voice, so no worries there...
Yeah I only found out about the launch because I called about it. But the store says they are only getting it in a few weeks. I think the Tab in Canada was pretty much really confusing, no one knew what was going on including some of the people who work for bell and rogers.
I don't understand why rogers is charging more than bell for the same tab :S I don't trust any hardware rogers sellls because I've gotten four phones that all had hardware issues or software issues.
I'm gonna wait for the one from bell and just unlock it.
^for the moment unlocking the BELL version seems to be the best soln considering bell is cheaper...
Looks like the Bell units will actually be for sale sooner, even though the Rogers unit has already launched. Called EVERY Rogers dealer in the Downtown Vancouver area (25 of them, plus FutureShop and Best Buy) and many didn't even know about the device, and those that did didn't expect any in this week.
On the other hand, a lot of Bell and Source stores should have them tomorrow, if they don't have them already (though not able to sell).
I got somewhat of bad news: Bell will not sell the device without signing up with them. So if you're on Rogers with a Rocketstick, like myself you're shi* outta luck. On top of all this both Bell stores only have 2 devices in stock. When I asked why she said it doesn't seem to be in demand since I was the only one to inquired about the Tab. I was like wow are you serious?
I double checked with most Rogers Plus and authorized dealer stores and both said that Rogers suck in launching devices, they most likely will be getting this in the next few weeks.
WTF is this shi*! Can't a guy just go and buy a damn Tab without all the hassle?!?! I'm not sure I can hold it much longer. I have issues.
I went through this with Bell on the Galaxy S. You sign up for month to month, cancel as soon as you get home, pay for one month's service when the bill comes in the mail, and you're done.
At least with the Tab I'll probably actually USE that service I paid for.
You might also have some luck buying it from Futureshop/BB without getting a plan, if you catch a clueless sales rep.
I'm an owner!
Just got back from my local Bell corporate store, proud new owner of a Bell
Galaxy Tab that I can't take home until tomorrow morning (talk about a
sleepless night for a gadget freak).
Device is $649 CAD, as expected, and it's data only, as expected.
There are *no* contract subsidies for this device, retail price is the only
price.
They're rolling out a new "Flex Plan" to go with the device, $20/500mb, and
if you exceed the 500mb, it goes up to $35 for up to 5Gb. It's a pretty
damned good plan, and especially good considering it's a CANADIAN plan.
If you keep the plan, you get a $50 bill credit after the second month, to
further sweeten the pot.
The catch is, you MUST sign up for the no-obligation month-to-month plan to
even buy it, and there's the usual (for Canada) $35 "activation fee", same as
any other device sold by a carrier.
The device itself was a pleasant surprise, based on all the literature/leaks,
I was expecting the traditional white backed Tab. But this one has the same
textured/patterned (and grippy, btw) black/gray back as found on the AT&T
(and Rogers) units, but with absolutely no carrier branding. The sales rep
said they may carry the white-backed model in the future as well, but at
least for this first shipment, they're all black.
Model number is GT-PT1000M, so one could expect it to be very similar to
International models, sans voice.
Finally, corporate stores have received 2 (count 'em, TWO) units each, and
independent dealers may not get any right away, so they will be in short
supply at launch.

Congrats on the purchase !
Is the bell tab sim unlocked?
I wonder if you flash the euro firmware you will be able to unlock the voice option and keep the 850mhz working (like on the sgs)....
I guess time will tell
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
It's locked, but that's no hill for a climber. I'm betting that it'll be VERY friendly with Euro firmware, just like the I9000M was. We'll find out soon as I have a working Bell backup firmware to flash to if things go bad.
And since my "real" carrier is Telus, they won't have any IMEI number to block if I use my regular SIM, nor should they have any reason to.

Yes? I'm guessing...
I have to say, I didn't see that comin. Bell has a 20$ flex rate plan, at a max of 35$ for 5 GIGABYTES download.... That. Is. Totally. Wicked. Rogers BLOWS, same plan for 65$... AND the thing costs you 675$ PLUS the 35$ activation fee...
All in all, i'm LOVING this thing, I can't stop using it, I'm going Tab Crazy. You should of seen the look on peoples faces at the mall, they just couldn't figure out what this LikeTotallyAwesome device was, even Bell employees were like "woah", because apparently they havn't seen this before today, not even a demo.
So one of my co-workers saw me showing it to another co-worker and asked if it was some sort of Tricorder (being a smartass).
I said, "why yes, yes it is" and proceeded to fire up the Tricorder app (which rocks major geek cred on the Tab, btw). A large chuckle was had by all.
And yeah, the Bell plan does not suck. Go check out what our American counterparts are paying for plans. And with the bill credit, we got it as cheap as any non-contract US version.
You had the Tricorder app already installed? Sheesh I thought I was a big geek but I clearly lost there lol.
Just kidding, I had both Tricorder apps installed by midnight lol. I don't remember the last time I've been so sexually aroused by a gadget as much as this, and I'm not ashamed of saying it. 8)
Just an FYI, there's a few Bell Tabs still for sale at the Robson and Granville Futureshop, if anyone is looking, but no Rogers units (and why you'd want a Rogers unit at this point is a bit of a mystery anyway).
Yes....My wife went in to buy me a Tab From the Brandon FL Mall. The first place she went he would not sell her the unit unless she signed up for Internet. She had 650 bucks in her pocket ready to buy and he would not do it. I know the answer why (they make their money on contracts) But that is why I was willing to pay 300$ more. AHHHHHHH.
Haha, I actually had a very similar experiance. I went on the day after Thanksgiving (I originally wanted to get the Sprint Tab for 550 at Best Buy but decided at the last minute to spend the extra 50 bucks and get the T-Mobile one). Two T-Mobile stores told me they wouldn't sell me one without a contract and one told me that I wouldn't be able to get one off contract till February. I almost bought one off of Amazon.com but they day they came in stock, the price jumped to 650.
I eventually found a brand new T-mobile tab on Craigslist for 550, so I guess I won?
hmm, thats weird I bought mine from Tmobile on the prepaid thing so I use wifi most of the time then when I need 3g I can buy a prepaid card.
I bought mine from the Tmobile store in Temple Terrace. I had no problem buying off contract there. Try a different store because the one in the Brandon mall is staffed by idiots.
Same experience. So we bought a $10 prepaid for it (100MB or 7 days, whichever comes first).
I had the same issue. My first t-mobile one I got by with the pre pay same as everyone else. But my second t-mobile one (ginny pig) I had some issues with the store trying to force a contract on me. Of couse my creadit was crap but what worked in my favor was my taking a picture of the tag nest to the galaxy tab price and no contract price with my iphone. I then told them it false advertising and there is no display ad showing they could not sell me one off contract. I then said fine I will send to consumer reports and post on xda-developers with your store name and location. The t-mobile rep then said give me a min and i will call the manager. 2 min later got my t-mobile galaxy tab. What does get me is they make a profet off the full price one and I bought the leather case and the car adapter so there is money to be made from these non contract tabs.
Amazon has lowered the price on the T-Mobile galaxy tab to $620 (form $650) with free shipping. Since there is no tax (for most people) the Amazon version will come out cheaper.
I just bought a ATT Tab from Amazon for $620 because Tmobile has terrible coverage in my area
I had the same issues in New Hampshire Mall with 2 stores. I called T-mobile, they told me it might be some affiliates.... I went to an "official T-mobile" t-mobile store (in the same mall) and got it for 599.99 as advertised. No contacts, no activation fees.
I had the same problem on launch day here in Albuquerque. The salesman even checked with the manager and still refused to sell me one off contract. So, I waited till the next day and bought the Verizon version, though it sure would have been nice to have the 16gb internal instead of on the card.
Well I caved.....
Yes I caved, went and bought one on contract form a different store. I want to go by the the store and walk in and tell them what I did. I am about to cancel both of my lines and go to Simple Mobile anyway as soon as this thing can make a voice call. I dont mind a Blue tooth in my ear at all.

How is that even relevant to the topic?
I don't understand why T-Mobile corporate isn't getting involved. Or is this is just an "authorized reseller" problem? Because those stores aren't even legitimate T-Mobile stores, anyways.
