I ordered an MDA compact from a German site-mobilejoker.de last week and haven't heard anything at all from them since then.
I just learned today that christmas holidays in Germany continue until 10th of January 2005.
Does this mean that mobilejoker won't be at work until then?
Yo???
Hi,
well... I am German, but I live in the US... anyhow... I've never heard of anything like that... the holidays (New Years) are usually over on the 2nd, some businesses stay closed longer though... because New Year fell onto a Saturday this year, it could very well be that some businesses take a general vacation until the next week, which would indeed be the 10th.
Treo
In south Germany there is a religious holiday on the 6th and this being a Thursday a lot of company takes Friday also off. This might be an explanation.

Actually its true (I work in Germany) a lot do have taken their holiday in the first and second week of Jan :x
So be patient :wink:
Folks,
I've seen that the Diamond will be available via Expansys and other sites mid June (I can mail order from where I am in Switzerland; probably for end June delivery if lucky). However, I'm on business in Singapore first week of June (1-6). Are there any forum members based in Singapore that know if the phones will be available already during that week (and perhaps, where so I can go along and buy)?
Thanks and regards,
Gary.
[bump]
No one that side of the world with contacts in SimLim or other similar technology centres?

I didn't see this posted but a friend/source of mine says that AT&T will be releasing the Fuze in the states November 3rd for $300 after $100 rebate.
Flame on if I missed this as obvious news
Date for ATT Fuze
Hello, Release is listed as October 23 for the Fuze release. ATT is releasing the Omnia around that date as well, I do believe the O is on the 21st.
Jon/Beachboyde
Still a close date. This is based on sales sheet information from today.

Read the entire thread. There is a stock sheet saying 23rd. Regardless, it's getting close. As far as the thread in this section, you're only a month or so late =p

ive been keeping up with that fuze thread since it started and the fuze thread before that. i saw the sheet with the 23rd on it thank you
are you the same person who put on engadget the 3rd with no evidence?
Really guys, really? Are you going to get on this kid for posting useful info when all you have are unreliable dates from a sheet (check the releases of the other phones, they don't all match up)? I'd definitely believe his November 3rd date.

Thanks for the support.
Sadly, no, I did not post on engadget and have only posted here. I don't have proof other than the text from my manager buddy who said he got a price/release date sheet and the Fuze was on it for Nov. 3rd.
I'm not a newb and didn't go around flailing about with this date. Just posting some info I got is all.
wow, people are gettin' grumpy lol fella releases some honest info, and get shat upon lol.
Hurry up ATT, the junkies in this forum are startin' to itch...
p.s. @OP, TY for the info! <3
Instead at looking at sheets or taking people's word for it I'd rather believe my local ATT cooperate store which tells me they will have the phone avaiable one week after their training on the 16th of this month. Putting the release date at the 23rd.
Earlier the better but I trust corporate stores as much as the government.
well if it doesn't come out until Nov.3 then that puts it close to the release time of the Touch HD. I still haven't made up my mind on whether to get the fuze just for 3G or get the Touch HD and use it on Edge like my Touch pro now and enjoy a much larger screen and better camera.
Nov 3rd seem like it could be true i dont see why people or bashing on him for giving us some info...i remember the diamond had a release date that everyone thought was true but it didnt release until a couple weeks later for sprint...all we should care about is that its actually will come out for ATT...oct 23 and nov 3 thats less than 2 weeks apart from one another...thanks for the info by the way
I'm only saying that giving info without proof is why everyone is upset. By the way the guy waiting for the Pro or the HD thats an easy one Touch Pro since the US will NEVER get a Touch HD in the US, it's already been officially said that there will be no touch HD coming to the US. Also I'm not sure if some have had bad expierences with cooperate stores in the past but my store last year gave me a date for the TyTn II release last year and they had it in stock a day early so yea I'm inclined to believe them, the NYC cooperate store near my house is usually very reliable and don't guess release dates like some other places.

I'm not trying to start a fight and am glad that the 23rd may be a possibility too.
I wouldn't be myself if I didn't say this though...where is YOUR proof You can't get on my case with 'well my store told me this'.
I mean this in the lightest of moods, so don't get angry...besides, after reading, it looks like this device suffers from the same "it's a business device, not a media device BS" that I got with my Tilt...and I won't go on that train again.
Well, if it comes on the 23rd then at&t will beat sprint out of the gate as the sprint version has been pushed to Nov 2nd. Plus, I have not seen any official previews of the fuze anywhere on the net. Or did I miss something..? The sprint version has youtubes all over the web with official previews.

Yes, and at the time that sheet was released Sprint's Touch Pro was set to release on the 16th. Sprint's got pushed back to November 2nd, and I believe the exclusivity still plays a role in the fact that they're the first carrier to get it, so AT&T may have had to push their date back to the 3rd. It makes perfect sense, and the training dates wouldn't be delayed if they already had them set up.

exclusivity i believe doesnt push others back when one carrier delays theirs.
like how att keeps delaying their bold im pretty sure other carriers can bring them out withint the time frame specified when att originally should have had it out
Done a quick search but can't see anything on this here on the forum so here goes:
http://www.htc.com/uk/product/hd2/specification.html
Will one of the XDA moderators consider opening a dedicated forum for this device, now known as the HTC HD2 please?
I am toying between going straight out and buying one tomorrow morning, providing the stockists advertising them actually have the item in stock, or waiting until Christmas. Anyone else considering purchasing and of so how do we get the developers interested in doing stuff for this device?
Cheers
WB
LOL,
It was only ANNOUNCED today mate, that means you can forget about going out tomorrow and actually buy one ;-)
That said, I am going to buy one as soon as I can, hopefully somewhere around the end of october if we get lucky.
Me thinks that HTC got a best seller here, and am not worried that the XDA developers won't pick up this device anytime soon.
Until then, I keep drooling over the pics & specs
Clubbraxx,
I had a conversation with a supplier the other day and was left with the impression that some devices were already out there, waiting for today's announcement as the go-ahead for being able to release direct to the public as of now.
Needless to say I will be on the phone in the morning chasing up the said supplier and seeing what they have to say for themselves.
Just seen someone moaning about the price of the device at circa £550. Given the high-end spec of the device and taking a 3 or 4 year ownership span into account, I would say that this appears to be a reasonable price for a sim free device.
No doubt the networks will be doing their best to tie in the unwary into 3 year/multi dollar contracts to make a killing on these.
Let me know if you hear any news.
Cheers
WB
The device should be available before the end of this month. I'm looking forward to it
Btw, the device is listed on expansys for $829,99 (or €649,99).
I was told by a customer service rep at O2(UK) at the weekend, that they have the device listed for mid October release.
As an O2 customer who has a contract ending on November 1st, I am considering getting one ASAP. I am unsure however, whether to get HD2, or TP2.
QWERTY & TV out, or Monster capacitive screen. Hmmmmm.... decisions, decisions.
Any help appreciated. lol.
Please merge, so many loe threads now!

op...what have you been smoking?
Availability Update
Following my chasing up of contacts today it looks like network providers such as o2 will have their stock to be released from mid October, ie next week. Sim free providers will not be getting their stock for release until a month later, ie mid November.
The above applies to the UK only; I have no idea what the position is elsewhere.
My order is just about to go in....
WB
Made my order today
Hi all!
What do you think of this model?
I fills my needs by 200%, but i heard that some software made for older 6 and 6.1 wont work on this new 6.5? Is that right? And i've also heard that Win mobile 7 is done. if so why did they not use win 7 on this new model?
Thanks in advance
****... I bought new Touch HD one week ago... Now I see HD2 and I'm not very happy...

Depends on how much you would really use the TV out feature. They keyboard...thats different, for me if the on screen keyboard is at least as good as the iPhones I can dump the physical one and be happy.
Hello all
Review Video HTC HD2 – Windows Mobile 6.5 at its best
you wont find this on Youtube
Hi all,
Release date for the HD2 on O2 was yesterday, I have been trying my utmost to get hold of one of these. Does anyone know any insider information?
I seem to be getting different info from different O2 reps.
I WANT ONE NOW!
Nobody knows - but the best guess at the moment is next week at the earliest. O2 just can't seem to answer a straight question different representatives giving different answers. It could come out this afternoon but nobody knows
looks like its been delayed until november now

Gonna phone them again. They are all saying its due this week but can't tell me when. They say only once it shows on the system can they price it etc.
Next rep has said they are conducting tests on it and it will be released on the 26th November. I am so bloody impatient!

Getting around all the hype, I don't think the Palm Pre has been a fantastic seller for them and I think if the HD2 drops now it will leave them with a lot of unsold Pre's.... so they are holding it back for the that reason (pure guesswork on my part).

The HD2 was supposed to be "in the final stages of acceptance testing" last week.

How they expected the Pre to sell as well as their marketing implies that they expected it to, is a mystery to me - the Pre offers very little new or exciting, with the OS being the only real exception (and I've heard a wide range of opinions on the OS). The problem is, if they hold back the HD2, they're going to end up not selling many of those as most people who want one will have moved to a different network or got one unlocked (O2 is one of the worse networks now IMHO - presumably they spent all of their money on iPhone exclusivity and subsidisation rather than improving their network and offering good deals).
Why doesn't the BBC interview O2 about the HD2 instead of wasting time interviewing them about the Pre?
I agree

I think you might jus be right on that one my friend hopefully that wil teach them next time not be greedy and try to stock every handset under the sun
Yes, been pushed back to 3rd week November. However none of the reps I have spoken to are absolutely sure when it will be out, nor what the final pricing structure will be.
I am assuming they will definitely be out by December to catch the Xmas traffic.
WB
Lol,
they will be selling it on estonia at late october on early november.
T-mobile is also selling them on 6 Nov according to them. I guess O2 thinks they are special and people will wait for them
Keep an eye on this thread guys.
Ok, WHOS calling o2 everyday (Multiple times) like me?

How do you know? One of the early excuses for an ambiguous date was that O2 didn't want the HD2 to hurt Pre sales. However, there's clearly a lot more demand for the HD2 and a lot less demand for the Pre than they expected, so O2 might decide to fast-track the HD2.
Latest from o2;
I called customer services and spoke to a guy who said they will definitely be getting stock over the weekend and it will definitely be on sale on the 26th October. I have now spoken to quite a few o2 reps and none have sounded as positive as this one. He didn't even have to go and ask a supervisor/manager/buyer........
We shall see!

Thing is, they were originally planning to launch the HD2 on 12th October, so that blows your theory out of the water. See here:

Of course he didn't have to ask a supervisor. He was just telling you what you wanted to hear so he could get you off the line and move on to the next customer with a genuine need of assistance.
I'm not trying to be nasty, but there's no way the HD2 will be on sale from O2 on Monday, when none of the e-tailers are getting it until 11th November at the earliest. So for the next month or so, why don't you be patient, leave the poor call centre staff alone and get on with enjoying your life. It's only a phone.
