yeah and the article was being sarcastic basically saying they need to release the sprint version their sitting on since they link back to their own article about the tp2 found with sprint brand on it.

yeah it's just funny how much hype this phone has. diamond 2 was my first choice for my next phone, but i'll probably end up with touch pro 2

Well if we keep giving HTC and Sprint this hype maybe they will consider releasing their phones quicker in the future.

Sprint isn't not releasing the phone quick. The first TP hasnt even been out a year yet. The release date for the TP 2 is supposed to be September 6th, still less than a year after the first TP came out. Everyone keeps saying Sprint needs to hurry up and stop sitting on this phone, but they aren't. They didn't want anyone to know about this phone yet and no one would know anything if a certain someone didn't leak it and release the pics.

Just be patient it is coming very very soon.

sprint is putting to much time and effort into the palm pre they had a winning hand palm pre,htc snap,bb tour and the tp2 what is they waiting for? and if they wait any longer and the htc hero drops in oct they gonna lost more tp buyers. If Sprint common sense was like they network/service they would be booming with business o well

When I was showing off my phone to Lil' Rico over webcam the other night, I kind of came to revelation.

Telus has released the touch pro 2 with ZERO telus branding on the actual phone itself (no logo's etc) nor any customized touchflo3d theme. It's the stock theme that HTC ships.

I then wondered if the reason the Sprint release is taking so long is because

a) hardware logo branding on the device
b) sprint customized manila theme

Keep in mind, the HTC touch pro and diamond from telus had a very small logo on the back of the device while sprint slapped their logo on the top right hand corner as well as customized themes.

I really do think this is the reason for the long release timing.

Seem logical?

From my understanding though..wasn't there a post about the final ROM being already done for sprint and verizon? and there were pictures of the sprint TP2 already in the wild that had the logo and everything.

So I think sprint is just doing it to torture us..

Seem logical?

for what its worth... was at sprint today getting my replacement TP, and got on the topic with the one of the employees there about the TP2. was saying that hes already had the phone is hand from sprint, guess he knows the guy that is doing testing or what not with it. He had nothing but good things to say. One thing he mentioned that i had no idea...from the pics, the keyboard looks like its slides up on an angle when slid open, but i guess it slides open just as the TP does now, but has a tilt feature...just thought that was cool.

anyways, he did in fact confirm the release date being the beginning of sept, but couldn't really talk much more about it at the time.

again...take this info for what its worth
