I apologize for my thread annoying you. At the time of posting I believed it was news only because this thread's title stated the 6th. I thought maybe this was something more up-to-date. I only started a new thread because I thought this information would be "news", hence posted in the Pocket PC News section. Again, my apologies.

This is tripping me out that you all are getting release dates in these chats. When I chatted with Sprint Rep. Jessica (and it seems no matter when I try to chat, I always get Jessica), she told me that she has no information on any phone called Touch Pro2 or HTC Rhodium, but she'd be happy to discuss any phones that Sprint now has available. Then when I kept questioning her and said that I had other buddies whose reps gave them a release date, she dropped the chat.

Ok can we use some common sense here.I mean i know it is hard but lets do it.#1 people should just leave e chat alone.I can go on there and ask them about any phone and they will say that it has to be on a everything plan.So people posting these e-cats don't even waste your time.

#2 now think really just think for a minute.When the Pre and the instinct came out did they or did they not hype the phones????

I mean really think about it please if they were adding another phone to there SE plans they would be hyping it up to no end to try and get people to switch plans and get it.

People need to just wait and it will be here and you can put it on any plan you care to.But to even listen to a E chat person is the first mistake anyone makes cause the chat people know less then you do.

No need to apologize bro, I am just tired of waiting for this damn phone to come out. Its pretty obvious that we all are tired of waiting hence some posters being a little on edge. We all want to contribute any and everytime we come across something but there are so many posts in some of these threads that its hard to keep up if you aren't on here everyday. So I apologize too

I didn't have a chat, but I emailed them. ecare told me 9/8 as well. At least they aren't denying plans to release the Touch Pro2 like they were last month. We'll know soon enough when we can actually order and get it in our hands.

Here's the response I got:

Thank you for contacting Sprint. I understand that you wish to upgrade
with HTC Touch Pro2.

This handset will launch on September 08, 2009. The features are:
Windows Mobile Pro 6.1,
International Device with full slide-out QWERTY keyboard and tilting
display.

Thank you again for contacting Sprint. Have a nice day.

Sincerely,
Cassie S
Sprint

Seems like everyone here is most excited about the screen. Is anyone else here really excited about the keyboard? I tried it at the T-Mobile store and it was the best mobile keyboard I have ever typed on. I have big hands and I could click with the middle part of my finger instead of the sides of my thumb like I had to on all the other phones.

Also, this phone doesn't seem that much hyped outside of this kind of forum. When I was at the T-Mobile store for some reason there was no touchflo on the phone. It was just a blank screen with the normal windows mobile buttons on it. When I asked the store people what happened to touchflo they thought I was retarded and that is how it is supposed to be. Imagine that the most expensive phone in the store and they don't know a single frickin' thing about it. I had to do a hard reset to get TF3D back up on it. What a bunch of tards.

Yup thats what i seen and heard to from a couple sources but then called Sprint about something else and mentioned this as i a a premiur / white glove customer and normally get newsletters before anybody else about new things and relaease dates and havent got this one yet so i asked and they could not confirm it. Said they do not even know yet nor is it in there systems at all yet. Plus tht was the corp offices, not just some dumb support or customer agent.

Someone probably just went into the today screen options and just turned tf3d off. Also the tmobile version doesn't look that bad either in my opinion, many people been dogging out the dudu-brown color but I like it and I think its kind of classy.

I thought we all were salivating so much in anticipation of this phone that we ARE on here EVERYDAY! Am I the only sad person to fit this description?
