Rogers sends out BlackBerry Z10 shipping notifications

Was it just yesterday that the BlackBerry Z10 and BlackBerry Q10 were introduced? One day later and Canadian carrier Rogers is already alerting customers that the all-touch Z10 has been shipped. Unfortunately, the devices are not being sent directly to buyer's homes, but are heading to Rogers' stores. The notifications tell the buyer which store his or her BlackBerry Z10 will be available from, and we would assume that it would be the carrier's store closest to the buyer, including authorized resellers.

The shipments are expected to arrive within four days and Rogers suggests that you wait until you hear from the store that your BlackBerry Z10 is in stock before you leave to pick it up. The phone officially launches from the Canadian mobile operator on February 5th and those who ordered the phone will have until February 7th to pick it up. If you haven't actually come into the store to pick up the device by February 7th, Rogers will turn around and sell it to the next customer.

When you go to the store to pick up your BlackBerry Z10, you need to bring identification to make sure that you are the  primary account holder. The $40 that your account was charged to reserve the phone will be credited back to the account during the following month. Rogers is selling the BlackBerry Z10 for $149.99 with a three year contract, and has started taking pre-orders today for the physical QWERTY enabled BlackBerry Q10. No launch date has been announced for that model.
