In the end the quality and style of the device will save Cingular…people will be so impressed, like #2 Thom, that they will forget all of the incompetence of Cingular.

I picked up my Pearl today from the Cingular store at Connecticut Avenue and L street in Northwest Washington D.C. Sorry everyone else is having a hard time. They seemed to have enough in stock. I saw a lady pick up two of them when I was there.

I got mine this afternoon in Memphis. The corporate store got in about 5 of them. Setting it up now. Fantastic device.

More on my wild goose chase from earlier today.

I went back to the Times Sq store at 3pm, since they said they were getting them in “Supposed to be today”.

They told me when I got there that “they were just getting them in, but there was a waiting list to get them”. When I then told them that I was pretty pissed because I was there 4 hours earlier and no one bothered to tell me about a waiting list, they then told me “We are getting some in on Monday, so we will give you a call if we get them”. Complete and utter incompetence.
