HTC Trophy on Verizon: First Press Shots

HTC Trophy on Verizon: First Press Shots

Like clockwork, here are the first press shots showing Verizon's HTC Trophy (minus the "7") from all angles. Shocked? You shouldn't be: the heavy stream of leaks have made an imminent launch for this first VZW [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]Windows [COLOR=blue !important]Phone[/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR] almost a lock; the latest date we're hearing is May 12th, although it's not clear if that's the launch date or the ship date. At this point, it would seem to behoove all parties involved to push this NoDo-powered handset out the door as quickly as possible, as even rival CDMA carrier Sprint [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]managing[/COLOR][/COLOR] to stock its shelves with the HTC Arrive many weeks ago. Of note, we're also expecting the Arrive / HTC 7 Pro to land on Big Red as the HTC Pro, but all signs point to that handset hitting shelves even later than Trophy. One more image located below.

So, I walked into a Verizon Wireless store today (Sunday), 2 reps are just standing around, so I asked, "Any idea on a release date of the HTC Trophy ?" the lady's responce was "HTC Trophy, I never heard of it.", so I said "Windows Phone 7". The other guy said "Oh, sometime by summer" and I said, "If it's by summer, I'll be with another carrier" then walked away.

I'm even questioning a 12th release date, these people are MORONS. Why do I even stay with them ?

It's no difference than the place I work, there are those who just get by and those who know their trade. We here being enthusiasts probably know more than the guns for hire at the phone stores. Sometimes you have to decide on what you know and what you want and make the educated decision.

I have found that the corporate store reps are pretty tight lipped on the Trophy, even when you show them the guide in their own store showing "HTC Trophy coming soon." I've showed the guide in 4 different corporate stores over the last 2 weeks and gotten the "we have no idea when it will be released" line.

In the non-corporate stores, when I've shown them the same guide, they have gone to their computers and looked up a release date. One store told me May 12th and another store told me May 16. The May 16 date makes no sense since Verizon releases seem to be on Thursdays unless this particular store just does not get the phone on the 1st day of release. I'm hoping for an official announcement tomorrow so I can finally get a new phone this week.

david if it makes u feel anybetter i called customer service and they are acknowledging the phone and theyve had training on wp7 and are saying it should be coming "really soon" try giving them a call i agree they are all morons with no knowledge on upcoming phones but thats to blame on verizon bein secretive about that stuff
