For those of who were lucky enough to get your orders in by noon today, you are among the first who will experience the G1, that much we already knew. If you failed to make that deadline and for some reason you just weren’t able to pull the trigger on the order yet, you will have some extra time to consider what took you so long! Pre-orders placed after noon today PDT, will have an expected delivery date of November 10th. That’s right, more than two weeks later than the rest. Which begs the question, what happens to those who were hoping to get their grubby paws on one first via a retail store? Will they still be available for order to those in 2G areas? This leaves a lot of unanswered questions about what will happen after the 22nd and most important to me, where is my white G1??
UPDATE: Gizmodo is reporting that this change in dates comes even after T-mobile tripled the amount of phones available for the first run of pre-sale orders. Of course the exact number of phones available for pre-sale are under wraps.

@SheShe – Yea, I’m glad I pre-ordered mine too! Apparently, I will get to show my G1 off after after all…since it looks like it’s gonna be on B/O for a cool minute!
Yea im pissed cause ive been off an on with tmobile since Sept 23 having troubles with my preordering and the only thing theyve been able 2 tell me is either they have no reference to my helpdesk input (I finally got 1 out of 5 to show today) and 2 that as of today they still dont know why i cant order the G1. Im really pissed at tmobile right now because they jerked me around telling me to call back all the time and in the end the only thing they could tell me was well its still proccessing but that wont help u anyways, itll be better if u just wait and pick 1 up in stores, a$$holes
maybe they’ll even send it out early… (a girl can dream cant she?)
This is good and bad.
Now send me mine
I ordered mine minutes after the announcement, so I better be getting mine on or before Oct 22 (or as I call it: xmas 2008).

I have decided to wait for the Curve II. I am a Blackberry kind of a guy.
I didn’t preorder because i waiting for the white one on the 22nd does that mean i’ll be assed out??? What about if i order via phone does that also mean i’ll have to wait till fuckin november? Boy i sure hope not

@Macho…I hope like hell u aint assed out homie! U awready know, dat would be F’d up!! I think u should be callin Tmo right about now!
@SheShe – When I talked to this Tmo rep today she said, “Your phone will be there BY the 22nd. They are actually processing them now…so check UPS the week before the 22nd because the goal is that you have it b4 anyone else!”
Real talk! Now…I don’t know if she was BS’in me or not…but that’s what she said to me. In fact, I told her @$$ that I will be calling her back after I get it…lol, cause she asked me too…to tell her how I like it since she can’t get it yet! Nutts!! But aye, it is what it is!
@Dat chyk good lookin baby girl i just got off the phone with a tmo rep she told me i can call in on the 22nd and order whichever i want i’ll be in my hand in a few days!!!! So thus far I’m happy hopefully i get my G1 on the 22nd !!!!

We were told internally that anyone who didn’t make the cut will be getting theirs on Nov 10th. If you made the cut the idea is for you to have the phone in your hands by the launch date. If you live in a NON-3G market then you’ll have to order yours there will be none in-store for non-3G markets.
@TMO Man – I ordered immediately…I better have “made the cut!” I will pissed off if I didn’t…fa sho!
Guys. I thought the pre-order were only for _EXISTING_ T Mobile customers and that new customers had to wait until Oct 22nd??? If I wanted to get a G1 I would have to sign up, get a different phone, then order the G1 at full price? Am I wrong?
my boy saw one last night on mytombile and bought one last night how lucky is he
T-mobile website now states to wait and if you are able to upgrade it is now $299.99, still waiting to hear that my order was processed. I printed out the order so I am sure if all else, they will honor the $179.99 ($8.00 fee = 197.99 plus tax = $214.32 for mine)…while the receipt online stated..”…A confirmation message will be sent to the account holder’s phone within 24 hours…” I have not yet received any notice.
i have two lines and when i ordered on one line i was waiting for the message and it came in on the other line
When did u place ur ordered?
Curious question. I ordered my G1 on Sept 23. and got my confirmation text on Sept 24th. I got curious a couple of days ago and logged back into my Tmobile acct and clicked the upgrade button again and it seemed like it was letting me order again. I immediately logged out (I’ll be damned if i f*** up my order) but was just curious if the website gives any kind of confirmation that the order went through. Just being overly cautious but it seems like there is going to be a riot over these things come Oct 22
no you didn’t mess up your order if you clicked confirm in the final step it would tell you order in process
Anyone knows if we will get the phone before the 22.
@So Real- First of all, I love ya name. Cause if u aint real u aint ish! But, um, yea…it will let u upgrade again but at a higher price. If you pre-ordered, the best thin to do was to print it out so u had a hard copy confirmation, If you didn’t its too late…but u can always call n confirm.
@roll tide i wanna know the same thing
