Sprint Touch Pro 2 Release Date Sept 6TH Per Sprint Corp

[tweak812]

The release date is September 7th, no b.s. My dad has the cell phone number of the head honcho of HTC in the U.S. He was talking to him today about getting some comped TP 2's to replace two bricks they sent us. He said he would like to but would be unwilling to do so as they have not been released yet. But expect them on a release date sometime between Sept. 6-8. He said those dates like 6 times. So my guess is it would be then.

Sorry to put yet another date out there, but this one has some serious clout behind it so i thought i would throw it out there.

Hey it is cool, I understand the way forums work. And I also understnad that everybody knows somebody on the inside. I didn't believe my dad when he told me either, but we were beta testers for some winmo software for my company, presenting a marketing oppurtunity of over 100,000 units for HTC, so they wanted to make sure we were happy. I understand that that probably does sound like tall tales but I am just relaying information. BUT i also think anybody who knows anything about advertising and releasing products would agree that July 25 or even August 10th is absolutely ridiculous. How in the heck are they going to build up any advertising momentum in less then a week? Or even less then a month? Not gonna happen.

edit: Also I wish i had voice recordings of the conversation but that isn't going to happen either. IF only I could get that cell phone number from dad then we could all call the guy at HTC and ask him.

Well I take it you haven't been with sprint long eh? They only TWO phones ppl can think about off the top of there heads that sprint even tried to market/ad was the instinct and palm pre...most sprint phone release are under the rader so if sprint still trying to ride the pre a quite tp2 release would do it. Gotta look outside the box sometimes brother still not calling you out just putting facts to sprint and how they do things. Lately they been matching other carriers release dates just something else to think about bro

Lol....you got me there. Only had Sprint since jan. Maybe that's how they keep the cost lower then everybody else. No adverts on the phones. But i also see all the complaints about how slow they are on releasing new phones. So september 7 may be the day on that account.

On a side note, I am kinda mad they released an update for my phone less then a year after I get it....if i get the tp2 how long till the tp3?

well if you have the TP and you use your phone a lot sprint is banking on the fact that you will take advantage of the Everything plan. cus if you have the $99 everything plan then you get to upgrade your phone once every 12 months

But to get the $150, you need to sign a 2 year agreement, correct? So, every year, you add 2 years to your contract length.....no bueno.
