I'm confuzzled....

Apparently you can pre download it and simply chuck in your CD key when it arrives, right?
Well I've signed up for a battle nate account but the only options I can find is to actually pre purchase at £45!!

I appreciate I'm being a douche, but has anyone got a download link?

at least read this page of the thread (I know 123 pages can be hard work).

A link to the installer downloader was posted 17/20 posts before yours

You won't be able to actually install until the 14th but at least you can get the installation files downloaded and ready.
 
Has it been confirmed that you can upgrade the digital version to the CE version? Any idea of when? I have a CE on preorder, but I'd like to play on launch day and I can always sell the actual CE on.
 
Edit:

I mis-read your question, thought you were asking about a digital version of the CE :p

i sent a ticket about a week ago. i have an annual pass therefore a free copy of diablo 3, and they said i can play at midnight, then register my CE to the account and it will upgrade my current version to a collectors one when it comes in the post.

not sure if that applies to your situation.

I watched a Q&A vid last night from Blizzcon 2011, about Diablo 3. They indicated you defiantly could, and could even use it as credit towards a WoW subscription if you wanted. No idea how to go about it though..
 
The Collector's Edition is only available from retail, and that means to play as soon as possible you'll want to hit a midnight release to pick it up (or hope FedEx drops off your package super fast). We don't have any plans to release a digital CE, it's a retail-only kind of thing. But! you may have a few options.

If you have the WoW Annual Pass (or go sign up for it now) you get a free digital copy of Diablo III. This will give you the game right at midnight, you can go download right now, all that stuff. Then, when you pick up your CE, you can overwrite the standard edition license with the CE license and you'll be granted 4 months of game time (more or less equivalent to the cost of the standard edition). So that's a good option. More info also available in the Annual Pass FAQ.

Alternatively, you can get the digital version now, play right at midnight, overwrite your license with your CE when you pick it up, and then contact our support department. In most situations they'll be able to grant you a new standard key, which you can then give to a friend, or whatever.

Think I may buy the digital edition if my CE doesn't arrive in time. I'll probably give the standard edition away to one of my clanmates.

How? The digital (standard) version will be tied to your battle.net account. Using the CE code will overwrite your standard version. So you end up paying twice for the same thing. Unless I'm missing something here?
