Yes. Direct from the horse's mouth that you should get it on the 6th. Must order through AT&T and by 3 PM CDT on April 5th, according to AT&T rep.

Looks like it wasn't midnight EST. Site is still up, so that means it isn't getting hammered like crazy. I think I'll just head to bed and preorder in the morning. I doubt it'll sell out before 8AM.

[kenosando]

Still no pre-order page up ... 12:05 Eastern (although I am in Central). Guess I will check again in the morning.

I'm eligible for an upgrade but I still don't see any option to preorder, either on the Lumia page or through the "Upgrade my Phone" page. Is there somewhere specific I'm supposed to be looking?

When it becomes available for pre-order, it will show up on the att.com/lumia page. Keep an eye out there. I noticed that the AT&T press release stated for business customers, pre-orders would start in the afternoon, but no mention of precisley when today pre-orders would start for personal wireless consumers.

It's 7:38 AM in the Eastern Time Zone. I just tried to upgrade and got a message that read "We are upgrading our online account management system right now". Hope this means 8:00 AM.

nooooo I am always sent to the premier website. That means I won't get to upgrade till this afternoon. See above for my thoughts on AT&T.

Interesting that they're giving out the April 6th date as part of their canned response. I assume this means for online preorders?

[tjwheels]

Rolando C.: You can preorder this phone on your online at 3 PM today Thomas.

I wonder if that means CST, she refers to CST in her canned response about the Nokia Lumia release.

I just pre ordered my Lumia from my local AT&T store. My sales rep told me all pre ordered phones are being delivered to your home on the 6th. Three of the sales reps were using their company owned Lumia's, they all were moving from Androids. One rep said he was returning his after his required 90 day trail was up. He refered to the phone as a great device but limited. When asked why, he complained about what he could and couldn't do on Facebook and the apps cost more money. I asked about the battery life and all three were very possitive about it. My only complaint is the micro sim card, there are only three other phones that use it - iPhone 4 & 4s and one Android model I have never heard of. That means no swapping sim cards back and forth between phones.
