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.

How did you not take the time to read that thread and realize there was no date mentioned...just a link to an engaget post about it coming 'sometime' to ATT

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
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.
The best buy store i pre ordered at said it will still be selling on the 17th!! An they will not be selling in the verizon store same day!!!!
BestBuy has an exclusive on launch date!
This from the Verizon Rep at BestBuy this morning just a few minutes ago. Agao the tore i went to hd them in stock!!!! I played with one.

Thanks for the tip. Was the screen plastic?
No its Glass! I would never consider a plastic screen.
Sense seemed to fly. best looking phone ive ever played with. But in the end if the 4g is not $30 unlimited like i was told i will be skipping this and getting an iPhone. The only that makes me getting android worth it is unlimited 4g.
I still think iphone is the most complete phone. But i will be getting the thunderbolt just for the 4g.

Good to know its glass. Good sign.
Called the local Best Buy and they are telling me they do not have a release date set. Checked more into verizon and was told that HTC has posted an information block on the phone till march 31st. Found on engadget an article about a picture block and because of posting rules I am not allowed to post the link. Horray for spam control rules.
I am hoping next week would be the time but verizon and Best Buy are reporting that they do not have a release date and that "soon" is all they know. Was told soon for verizon could be a week to 6 weeks.
All speculation, trust no one
Only when there is a public anouncement is when we will truly know

Would be nice if they would give details outside of "we will be selling this phone but, we won't tell you the release date". They should have announced it's release along with the date.

I agree, maybe they are waiting to see if its worth selling the 14th/17th because of a dud in iphone sales
Or is the iphone is a hit (which it is not) then they would post pone the TB
all speculation though
one thing i think is funny that the Verizon Iphone is becoming a dud. most people who wanted a iphone already switched to ATT so whats the big deal about getting wht someone already had for awhile
I think if you're going to offer pre-order(Best Buy), then you'd better have a hard launch date. Offering pre-orders without one is a poor business practice.
Oh great more rumors about launch dates...

I agree. No offense to the OP but we need to stop making these threads. Its just going to be harder to find information in the General thread when the device is released. Having 20 release date threads is kinda pointless.
Wait till its released, the development section is going to be flooded with requests for roms

I agree with you on the multiple threads , but I doubt if anyone will be in the dark the day the phone is released.

The iPhone is far from complete friend. It may be pretty and polished... and what it does, it does well, but complete isn't a word I'd use. Imagine using your phone all the time with your app drawer open and no access to your notification bar pull-down... there you go, an iPhone OS...
Guys I just prefer the iphone, but am still getting the thunderbolt because of the 4G.
And also as i stated before the bestbuy store i preordered at had them in stock a whole closet full!!! And will sell to me on that date.

Every single BB employee that has posted on the forums has said none of the stores have gotten any stock in at all yet. Also why in the world would BB release the phone on the 17th? That is a Thursday and no one has ever heard that date mentioned by any of the sources out there. It has always been either the 14th or the 24th, the date makes no sense.
Hmm every BB employee? Wow thats amazing!
Funny in these forums ive posted the STORE LOCATION, CITY AND STATE.
But i guess your right.

The 17th is only relevant due to Verizons habit of releasing on Thursdays. Highly unlikely that that's the date. IMO if it were the 14th, we clearly would've heard officially about it by now. If it were the 17th, same thing. 24th...well I think we need to heard about it sometime next week, sooner rather than later for that to be plausible. I just don't see it being released without some sort of ad campaign prior. Until I see ad's I am being pessimistic.
You know what im changing my tune , you right. Its not out till its out. Theres no point sweating it. If i get it when i assume im happy if not....oh well.

Meh, I waited and waited but TomTom never came. Now I've fallen in love with CoPilot.

Hi,
So I won the HTC Sensation XL from this competition: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1683209. I have been announced the winner and I am eagerly waiting for this device.
The phone has been "shipped off" on the 16th and would arrive at mine on the 18th. I have waited but the shipment can take a week as I am told. I am not jumping to conclusions just yet but I have asked the OP of the competition where my phone is and other questions... He is ignoring my PM's unlike before ( he could be really busy after he announced the winner ) but he is sometimes online but always ignores me.
I have sold my phone and I am waiting for this SensationXL... Do you think it will come? I will let you know if it arrives after a week or if it was all a fake.
Thanks

Actually you ARE drawing conclusions. Give it some time, Shipping to UK can take a bit (especially if you packet draws attention to the customs).

@OP,
And you needed to create a new thread for this because?...
If it was shipped on the 16th, which was a Friday, and they told you it could take up to a week, just wait. No need to create a thread announcing the possibility/theory that the contest was a scam. It makes the OP of the thread look bad for no reason. Do you have a tracking number? or even a confirmation from the carrier that the phone was shipped? If the answer to either question is yes, then give it some time.
I will close this thread now as it makes absolutely no sense and you are simply inviting animosity over a concern that you have for something you are getting for free as well as ill feelings towards someone who likely is undeserving of it (the contest maker).
Thread closed.
PS. Just changed the title of your thread as you made it sound like you were scammed or something...
