Verizon’s BlackBerry Storm Order Page “Unavailable At This Time”

November 21, 2008 by Robb Dunewood 7 Comments

It looks like the lines at the Verizon Store aren’t the only ones that are long.

The selection you made is unavailable at this time is what you get when you click the Buy Now button for the Storm on Verizon Wireless’ home page.

    Verizon’s internal ordering system is down. I tried to order one by calling and they had to take my name/number and said they’d call back later today when the system was back up. Apparently they did a horrendous job planning for this launch. This was AFTER I went to a store this morning (about 20 minutes prior to opening) and I was about 40th in line (of about 50) before we were told they only have 19 in stock. they were taking names/numbers to order the devices to be delivered next Tues/Wed.

    You would think. You are implying logic to a company that uses none (hence no WiFi) and other crippled features.

    Verizon has failed when it had the perfect chance to improve it’s image for state of the art phones which Verizon has not been known for. Vanilla has been their favorite flavor. I placed an order at 12:39am PST. at 9:00am I checked to see if it had shipped and it said order pending. Tonight, they have no such order pending; and now a 2 week wait for orders placed today. I guess they sold the 1 phone they had available for purchase over the internet. It’s time for a new management team; obviously “release date” means something different to them.

    Funny. They had plenty here outside of Atlanta. The problem was that all of the demos in the store were terribly bugged. The operating system did not work well, the phone would not rotate properly from landscape to portrait, and the media player would freeze. This happened on both devices that were available for demo along the store wall.

    If you check forums, you’ll run into some people who were “lucky” enough to get one of the first phones and have stated that their phones act the same way. I’m wondering if these phones were pulled due to these issues. This is all speculation, of course, but there were earlier posts that said Verizon would have plenty of phones in all stores.

    If there is any truth to this idea, be grateful. Those demo phones were REALLY bad. I want one, but not one like those.
