EVO quantities
 

So there must be a shit ton of these phones if people all over the country are pre ordering from best buy and radio shack. Im sure Sprint has there own supply.

Being one of the many who pre ordered, I am now wondering why I even did. If there are that many, why bother. Apple produced millions of iphones for their initial launch and still ran out. Unfortunately, there arent that many folks like us around to get this thing to sell out. Hype over under-exaggerated inventories perhaps?

Yep..... this phone will not sell out . It will do well though , but millions like iphone , I think not.

Re: EVO quantities
 

I am thinking it will sell out because I am sure they ordered significantly less than say Apple and AT&T would with the iPhone. They just don't have the cash flow or credit to do millions of units... Hmm that is all conjecture and I could be talking sideways out of my a$& but I am going with my gut here

Re: EVO quantities
 

of course it will sell out. when's the last time you saw a non-Apple phone launch in high quantities on the first day? it just doens't happen.

Re: EVO quantities
 

Even as recent as today ....people are reporting going into BB and RS all over the country and being a single-digit pre-order number.

This hype for this phone is about a 6 out of 10
The hype for the Iphone was about a 12 out of 10

Re: EVO quantities
 

I think its because HTC is more of an enthusiast brand and the iphone is more of a "hip" phone. Maybe HTC should take out the ability to make calls. That would boost sales!

Re: EVO quantities
 

Bingo. I am even having second thoughts on not getting one. I may pick one up on launch day and try it to see if it's worth the extra 10 bucks a month. Just found out my wife's employer gets a 15% discount on the bill so that would certainly make up the difference with the EVO fee.

all the iPhone haters will have their day, thats all that matters for now. lol

Re: EVO quantities
 

We'll see.....the new one looks fairly impressive. It took 5 yrs to catch up and they are still new on the phone game. Hopefully this will force HTC to stop using the same hardware for so long.

Re: EVO quantities
 

I have a feeling they won't get sold out. I went to my local radio shack yesterday and the people there didnt know what the evo was. they also didnt know they were doing pre-orders, i had to let them know lol. i was also the first pre-order there
