Epic 4G pre-orders starting today? (update: maybe not)

Saturday, August 7th, 2010

We’ve gotten several tips this week suggesting that pre-orders for Sprint’s mighty Samsung Epic 4G should be starting today, though at the time of this writing, the page where reservations are apparently supposed to take place is just offering to take down contact information to find out more about the device.

Oh, and if you reserve, be quick about picking it up, because you’ll only have until noon the day after launch to pick it up. Meanwhile, keep refreshing that Source link!
