There is only one reason why someone would tell you it's discontinued and that is so you will give up on getting one and take another phone instead so they get the sales commission on that call!

As someone else properly noted...HTC is probably having some issues keeping up with the manufacturing as the carriers probably only contracted for a limited number on initial purchase to roll the unit out and with everyone trying to break keyboards and trash their TPs trying to scam a TP2 there simply isn't enough to go around.

Now people who legitimately want to purchase them can't get one either!

And when they call the sales rep will say anything to get you to make a purchase of something so they get the commission. Even to the point of lying to you so you will take whatever phone they do have available and make you burn your upgrade to get the phone you actually wanted!
