All you do is call 611, at the prompt say upgrade and processing begins. That was after 3-4 tries in a span of 2 days, so it really depends on the CSR you get. Most will give you the 2/11 date for ordering, but if you are lucky you will be able to get it. Also, I told them my current phone crapped out on me, and didn't have a spare one. My contract was also coming to an end.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[boom]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 23rd 2009 1:58PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BlackBerry Curve 8900s trickling down to users from T-Mobile]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/22/blackberry-curve-8900s-trickling-down-to-users-from-t-mobile/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/22/blackberry-curve-8900s-trickling-down-to-users-from-t-mobile/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yuss!!!<br><br>Getting as a 2nd to Compliment my G1 and my replace my Curve 8320.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Galen20K]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 23rd 2009 12:06AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BlackBerry Curve 8900s trickling down to users from T-Mobile]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/22/blackberry-curve-8900s-trickling-down-to-users-from-t-mobile/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/22/blackberry-curve-8900s-trickling-down-to-users-from-t-mobile/</guid><description><![CDATA[Played with one today and it is a VERY nice phone .If you liked the 8320, you will like this phone. The whole "bezel" is stainless and it feels heavier and better built in your hand than the 8320. 4.6 SW is really nice too. It is also thinner than the 8320. Definitely worth getting when it becomes available to customers.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Derek]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 23rd 2009 1:00AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BlackBerry Curve 8900s trickling down to users from T-Mobile]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/22/blackberry-curve-8900s-trickling-down-to-users-from-t-mobile/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/22/blackberry-curve-8900s-trickling-down-to-users-from-t-mobile/</guid><description><![CDATA[I just called and asked if I could upgrade to the the new touch-screen blackberry.

I mentioned if she should look into getting the phone for me since I'm a long time customer... she placed me on hold for about 2 minutes and said unfortunately she wouldn't be able to order. Also, she mentioned if she was able to, it would most likely be an early order placement and not sent out to me until the release date...<br><br>hmmmm... if it worked for you guys, I think i might give it another shot and say how I read "others" were able to get the phone early, why not me? <br><br>I'm a 8+ year TMO customer with 5 lines... just renewed 2 years for all five lines because I just added myfaves for no extra charge to my bill...<br><br>I need the 8900 now!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[david]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 23rd 2009 3:59PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BlackBerry Curve 8900s trickling down to users from T-Mobile]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/22/blackberry-curve-8900s-trickling-down-to-users-from-t-mobile/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/22/blackberry-curve-8900s-trickling-down-to-users-from-t-mobile/</guid><description><![CDATA[on the phone...buying one now...woo hoo!!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[BurnTees]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 23rd 2009 2:18PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BlackBerry Curve 8900s trickling down to users from T-Mobile]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/22/blackberry-curve-8900s-trickling-down-to-users-from-t-mobile/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/22/blackberry-curve-8900s-trickling-down-to-users-from-t-mobile/</guid><description><![CDATA[611 > Upgrade > Awesome CSR > 8900 Purchased and sent to me on the quickness.

I wanted to say something about the release date but didn't want to risk the CSR realizing that he might have been wrongfully placing the order for me as the release to non-biz customer is not until 2/11. <br><br>I accepted the 2 year contract via phone and was advised the phone would arrive in the next 5-7 business days. We'll see from there whether or not the phone will actually be on my doorstep. I wouldn't be surprised if somewhere during the order process that someone realizes the phone is being sent too early and they hold the ship date until 2/11. <br><br>For the people who've already received an 8900 and are non-biz, can you chime in and confirm? <br><br>(crossing fingers that everything goes smoothly...)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[david]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 23rd 2009 9:18PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on BlackBerry Curve 8900s trickling down to users from T-Mobile]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/22/blackberry-curve-8900s-trickling-down-to-users-from-t-mobile/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/22/blackberry-curve-8900s-trickling-down-to-users-from-t-mobile/</guid><description><![CDATA[I know this is more than a little bit off the subject, but I figured I should mention it as soon as possible:  AT&T just made the official 4.5 handset release available for the 8800, so you can now upgrade fully legitimately.  As you may recall, they made the 4.5 available for the 8820 (and 8320) some two months ago, but there are many of us out there with 8800s, and we now got the goods too and can upgrade as of today.  Just go to www.blackberry.com/upgrades using Internet Explorer (only supported browser; yes I know that's lame) and it's pretty much automatic, albeit slow.  Takes between 1 hour and 1.5 hours in my experience, especially if you have close to 40,000 address book and calendar records.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Anton Wahlman]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 23rd 2009 8:53PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
