Not all stores, but I personally experienced an incident through all last week and this week where AT&T stores have been selling off the BlackBerry Torch 9810 and the PIN would be dead on them.  Then last night we got an email tip of the same thing going on in a few New York region stores.

A story published in CrackBerry forums in regards to AT&T Torch 9810 pins getting deactivated as 2,700 units were stolen and RIM killed the devices off making them useless.  I can’t connect the two stories together but it sounds very coincidental and maybe RIM killed off more pins than they should have.  Poor AT&T customers dealing with the aftermath.

Thanks Bogizo for the tip!
