Those of you who haven’t placed a pre-order for the Motorola Droid X will be happy to hear that Best Buy has confirmed that it has resumed taking pre-orders for the phone. Best Buy had previously stopped accepting orders for the Droid X, which is scheduled to arrive on July 15th, due to low supplies.
Purchasing a $50 gift card will be enough to reserve your DROID X at Best Buy where the phone is expected to cost $199 after a $100 mail-in-rebate and a 2 year contract is signed. How many of you are planning on placing pre-orders?

I just got off the phone with a BB rep who told me that no only are they not guaranteeing that they will have a phone for you on the 15th but they also are CHARGING YOU $50 to get on the waiting list. Thats total bunk to expect someone to pay to get on the waiting list and not guarantee them a phone. A local authorized dealer here is only 5 people deep on their free waiting list and are expecting to get in 20 phones.
I pre-ordered mine today at Best Buy. I was also told that they weren’t guaranteeing the phones, but when pressed the mobile manager said that they would likely be calling me a couple of days prior to the 15th to setup an appointment to pick up the phone. I think they are setting up appointments, so it isn’t mayhem with everyone there at the same time. They did charge $50, but they give you a $50 gift cert to use towards the phone on pickup or for whatever else you choose.
i pre ordered my droid x on the 28th so does that mean ill get mine on launch day? and is best buy still going to call me a few days prior to the launch date? i really wanna know if im getting it.
