Diamond Release Speculation Thread

[Draiko]

I think the vogue/touch is as cheap as it'll get before it's retired. It may go down to $49.99 this xmas, but I'm smelling an EOL for the Vogue.

the one on the bluefish sprint site had a camera on the front..

this whole sept. 2nd thing is just the the preorder date just like they did with the instinct.

sounds believable, i think orders will come in mid sept then more advertising and an official release before september ends..

i talked to a guy that works in tech support for sprint tonight, he claims it is going to be released on the 2nd. possible pre-orders tomorrow. he works for sprint and tells me this is up-to-date info. i spoke to him in person not on the phone. so who knows, it could go any direction.

Okay, so far NO ONE has provided proof to a September 2nd release. NOTHING. Aside from, "my friend" or "my insider" or... blah, blah, blah. I mean, c'mon people. I understand we're all dying to get this phone, but let's use common sense. I've provided proof, other people have provided proof. The release WAS September 2nd. Advocates revcieved an e-mail stating the launch was POSTPONED from it's ORIGINAL RELEASE DATE. What more do you want?

Bro, I'm not getting angry at all. I just don't want to see you all disappointed come 9/2 when the phone isn't in stores or available via telesales. All I'm saying is don't get your hopes up. These are the same customer service people that charge you cancellation fees, credit it back and then charge you a deposit. So... take what they say with a grain of salt please. This is coming from a Sprint employee by the way.

Not saying it won't, but EVERYTHING is pointing towards a delay. However, if it does come out in 6 days then we'll all be enjoying a badass phone.
