Default Pre order Thunderbolt @ BB $50

Quote:
Coming soon: 4G ThunderBolt by HTC

New Android phone features blazing 4G speed, an 8MP camera, integrated Skype video and more. Pre-order yours with a $50 deposit at a Best Buy Store near you.
Read the quote above I pasted from Best Buy's website. I can't post the link since I'm new...

Unless I'm missing something it looks like you can do it today. I'm going to try when it opens as there's one right by my house.

Edit: added a screen shot from the site, you'll see where I cut and pasted at the bottom of the pic.

So I just put down the $50 for the preorder.. I am going to be using an upgrade from my family plan.. Will the 1 year mfg warranty still be in tact?

I have a quick question.

So its $50 down to pre-order, but what is the full price against which you are pre-ordering? And what is this about a $50 gift card as well.

Also, can you change your mind on the pre-order? The reason I ask is I will be adding this phone as a new ATT transfer number line onto an existing VZW family plan, so I don't know if BB will do that or if I have to call VZW directly.

I am thinking of stopping by on the way home and pre-ordering, but I wanted to clarify those two things before I go out of the way to BB.

Thanks.

the $50 down to pre-order secures your spot. You get a $50 giftcard, that is your preorder, which you can use towards the total cost of the phone. If you change your mind, you now have a $50 giftcard

No full price as of yet
The gift card holds your $50 till your ready to pay or get a refund

I'm planning on buying it full price and hoping they will let me
I would say pre order just in case because you can get a refund
