Well, at least according to Verizon’s ad on Yahoo and Google, the Samsung Rogue is on sale right now. The Samsung Rogue was rumored to be released yesterday but it wasn’t.

A search for “Samsung Rogue” on Google shows the following ad by Verizon:

As you can see the headline says The Samsung Rogue™ and the description says “With Touch Screen and Video Camera. Get Free Shipping. Official Site.“. I went ahead and clicked the link but that redirected me to a 404 error page on Verizon.

A search on Yahoo also brings up an ad for the Samsung Rogue.

The headline is the same but this time the description says “With Touch Screen and Video Camera. On Sale Now. Official Site.“.

I clicked the Yahoo link and it brings me to the same 404 error page as well. Either Verizon put up the ads too early or they will be releasing the Samsung Rogue and adding it to the website soon. I’ll make a post when the Samsung Rogue is really available.

The Samsung Rogue replaces the Samsung Glyde 2.  According to a leaked document that was sent to Phone Arena, the Samsung Rogue was supposed to launch today on Verizon wireless. Of course this is just a rumor, but I still decided to go ahead and check with my Verizon Wireless store. Unfortunately it was not available. I searched the Verizon Wireless website and it didn’t show up there either.

A lot of other Samsung fans were expecting to see the Samsung Rogue today, but it looks like we will need to wait. I’m sure it will launch some time this week. I’ll be keeping an eye on when this phone launches and will update here once it’s out. I’ll also post a Samsung Rogue review as well once it’s released.

For now you can see a picture of the Samsung Rogue below.

Did you notice the Best Buy $9.99 TV? Apparently Best Buy is listing a Samsung LN52a650 52″ HD TV for $9.99 on their online website.

Update: This was indeed an error, and Best Buy has now fixed the price. They will be refunding orders with this price. Here’s what Best Buy Rep, Jacob said in a tweet:

“I’m sorry to say but it was a mistake and is being corrected. Any orders with that price will be canceled and refunded.” – via @jacob_bby

We’re not sure if the $9.99 is a typo or not, but for $9.99 the LN52a650 HD TV does look like a good deal at first glance. Add this item to your cart and see what happens.

Yes, that’s right. There’s a $70 delivery charge! You have to pay at least $80 for this deal. $80 for a 52″ HD TV sounds like a good deal to me. If you want one, get it now! It looks like it’ll sell out fast.
