Nothing here either. I got mine about a week after launch though and signed up immediatly. So hopefully I get something soon. I def felt scammed about the way they went about getting us the "free" game

Super Stardust? You guys are getting jipped. Some PAL regions, if not all, received Wipeout after topping up their 3G model's included prepaid SIM. For a one off $19 recharge and no contract, it's a much better deal IMO.

That sucks. Take it from me, Always do your own research. Never take a store employee for their word.

Whatever you're told by retail store employees you need to take with a pinch of salt.

My free month kicks in at the end of the week. If I still don't have it by then, I plan on contacting Playstation and/or AT&T and complaining.

I have already contacted Sony about this. I called them on Friday and they are making me wait even longer while they try to get me a code. Super Stardust Delta was my most hyped Vita game that I wanted to play. I would have just bought it day one if I knew I was going to have to wait even longer. Sony had no idea why I did not receive a code.

Yeah this does not make me feel good about my chances of getting it on time. Hopefully I don't end up in the same situation as you.

So the PS Vita uses 3G? Don't you have to like, pay for that, or something?

Yes you do have to pay for the 3G

15 bucks for 250MB of Data

Or

30 bucks for 3 Gigs of Data

Just note you cannot play online games through 3G (yet?) so it is mainly for leaderboards, the web, PSN store...things like that

Hmm idk. If I do get one, I think I'd stick with the wifi version of the vita. But then, what if games could come out in the future that require 3G? And if it's a game I'm anticipating, it could be a huge bummer if I can't play it. I don't really want to pay extra money every month just to play a game.

I know a lot of games in the past (not necessarily on the PSP, I never had one of those) would only have local play, even if the device could use wifi. What if they jump right over wifi and require you to have 3G now, for a better connection?

I would bet large amounts of cash on there never being 3G required.

3G is not a "better connection". It's just a more versatile one. 3G is unresponsive and slow (relative to broadband internet). The most that could be done with it is simple turn-based games, like pool or board games.

Super Star Dust Delta is a great "pack in game" Even though it wasn't packed in. Beats Little devients which I got with the first edition bundle. I've always been a fan of the pack in game routine.

SO what you are saying is:3G is a waste. And what do you mean by 15 bucks for 250 megabytes?Do you mean like memory card MB or like MB you need to load webpages and stuff like on a computer?Im lost there :P

I just called AT&T yesterday and they called Sony themselves and said that I will still be receiving Super Stardust Delta in the next 7-10 business days. The reason for the long wait was because a lot of people that bought the 3G model activated it on the same day, so some people like myself are getting it late and that they are really backed up on activations the same day. Sucks it's gonna take me this long to get it but at least I'm getting it.

Still nothing from me. I have called their customer service 5 seperate times and they had me fax in all my receipts because they say they either didn't get all the other e-mails (all 4 of them) or the files weren't in formats they accepted (which they were, such as PDF). I still don't have it even though they promised me it will come within 48 hours of receiving the fax. I have now had my system for 60 days and still no super stardust delta. I'm starting to lose faith, but I decided I'm going to call and **** every day until the code arrives.

What a nightmare. You must be one calm individual for only starting to lose faith after 5 calls! Gotta love it when Sony offers a free, goodwill promotion that only alienates their customers. This is one company that has lost control and direction.

yeah they basically told me today that they can't "locate the e-mails" and the ones they can find are missing something, but they won't tell me what they are missing. so I decided I am going to send the same e-mail to them every day until until they figure out exactly what it is they are missing.
