Ok so the advantage of dedicated transports is that the unit attached to it can be inside when deployed. Understood.

On page 67 of the rulebook it is explained that the only limitation is that when deployed, only the dedicated unit may be inside. The paragraph goes on to say that after the game begins any friendly unit may use it.

So here is my question. If I buy a unit of Terminators along with a dedicated Land Raider can I deploy the Land Raider on the table, keep the Terminators in reserve (for Deep Strike) and on turn 1 have another unit jump into the Land Raider?

Thanks. I think I found the answer on page 94 where it says dedicated transports can be deployed empty

and another question. When units come from reserve they start on the border edge, and move to board. When transport dedicated to unit A comes from reserves, and there is another unit which comes from reserves in the same time, can it embark being not yet on the table (before the table edge)?

No. What you have to do is move the transport onto the board first, then move the unit onto the board and all within 2" of the Access points, then embark.
