Everyone has been awaiting the release of the Samsung A970. As I understood it, the phone was to be released on September 2 - but according to a few Verizon employees (on Howard Forums) - the release date was pushed back to October 18 (which I can understand if they want to do more testing or perhaps ensure that the investory is sufficient, etc.) - now according to the A970 thread - Best Buy has begun selling this phone as of yesterday. If that is true (and it appears to be) - then what sense do you all make of this with Verizon's decision to delay the phone another two months if it is already being sold by a third party?

Thanks
