Verizon is going to be releasing a number of new phones prior to the new year and maybe they were just looking past the Touch Pro 2 because of the Touch Pro's bad sales. Who knows...but there is definately and underlying reason.

I think its definately based on demand. I tried buying it back at the end of September when they first sold out, and had to wait until about 2 weeks ago to purchase mine. They received 1200 units and within less than 2 days sold out. Someone earlier brought up a good point & i agree. HTC just released this phone to 4 different carriers within a matter of 2 months, and they are having a hard time keeping up with the demand. Each unit has its own design, so they have to mass produce 4 different models. AT&T just released theirs and waited for Windows 6.5. If I were a betting man I'd say that Verizon is out of stock now because they are planning on flashing the newer TP2s with 6.5 so they are in stock for the holidays.
