Weird, sounds like your need a better account rep. I have thousands of lines and can preorder no problem. Do you have a VEC or B2B account to log in online with. Cause I know for certain I can pre-order with either. You have the option to ask for one to get setup to more easily maintain your account btw.

I pre-ordered on day one just to have a better chance at getting it before the store does. I even took two days off (Wednesday and Thursday) just in case I have to cancel my pre-order and get it myself that morning. I would rather go to the store and pick it up then wait for a Fedex truck if it's the same day.
I've been waiting for a Verizon Note since the original came out last year. I'm tired of playing with that sucker in the stores and I want it now!!!

Picking up in store.
My sister picks up the tab on the bill and has had me on a legacy Alltel plan just voice and some texts for $10/mo extra. She and her husband are on unlimited data, but they're switching to the Share Everything plan, so I'm getting this to use for the same monthly bill. First time having a smartphone in service, I want to make sure it's one I'll keep for a while. :)
Also, I know it's highly unlikely for a pre-order item, but maybe there will be a BF/CM deal on it. Who knows? A guy can hope. :eek:

Probably going to wait until the phone is unlocked then by that time it may be cheap (reasonable) enough to purchase off contract, that or they will have announced when they're killing unlimited (then I switch carriers :p) .

Why are they switching to the share everything plan? Tell them to keep it. I think 4gb shared is $50... my unlimited plan is 29.99, so x2 is only $10 more for no data restriction.

I'm trying out the Note 2 on US Cellular first, and if I like it after a week or so then I'll return it and pick it up at Verizon when it's released.

I'm not sure what she pays for her unlimited plans, but she said it will all come up to about the same price when she switches. I did encourage her to keep unlimited data, because I can live without an in-service smartphone.

Also, I forgot to include the main reason I'm picking up in store. Because she has to switch plans, if I pre-order, it'll knock my old Alltel phone off service until I get the Note II.

if it is just something like this, go to sprint.

i think imnuts wants to look at dev capabilities, correct me if i'm wrong.
Nah, I want to play with the phone, see how it feels in hand, etc. I still wouldn't pre-order if I'm paying full retail. Pointless IMO as odds are that I can find a VZW store that has them in stock on launch day and go buy it if I want. I may even get it if it isn't unlocked as the S-Pen and multi-window stuff have me pulled in.

To each his own. Sprint had a model that didnt have anything connected so I was able to play around with the note 2 with no wires attached. Pretty sure after you toy around with it you will be hooked, so maybe it is better if you dont go lol
