as internal reports state

"Due to over whelming demand, inventory is extremely constrained for the HTC Touch Pro2. VZW DCs are getting supplies weekly, but currently can not keep up with demand."

"This item will remain DFILL only."
"Please check inventory daily."

Call and ask then please, see if you get the same response I got.

I've spoken with 3 CS reps and my Account manager from the business division (which I have never had a single issue with, and they have always been consistent and well-informed) over the last 2 weeks getting my TP2 replaced, and everyone mentioned how quickly it sold and how hard they were trying to get replacement stock in. It is not being replaced by the Imagio.

VZW knows there is always a market for a Touchscreen WinMo phone with a hardware keyboard...that is why they always kept the 6700, 6800, and 6850 around, even when touchscreen only variants were available.

Just calm the heck down. The TP2 is here to stay.

I understand the demand, but the Droid is coming out in the next 3 weeks or so...Faster processor, better OS...Why not replace the TP2 if you simply can't keep supply.

Because they cant keep supply due to demand for this phone! VZW is in the business to make money so why would they stop selling a phone they are selling like hotcakes?? Think about it. The person you spoke with fed you a like of bull...

Well Isror, if you think the Droid is a better OS then get it. Why would they want to get rid with the hottest phone out? The reason that they are out of stock is that the Touch Pro was so crippled that Verizon customers are willing to spend full price for the phone and everyone else is fighting to get this phone.

No kidding old facts are old, that was the reason I left Verizon was because they gimped the TP1, and still tried to charge me full price to upgrade to it. It was cheaper for me to leave Verizon, pay the early termination fee and go to Alltel, get a fully functional TP1 and a better contract.

I plan on ordering the Droid when it comes out, but I'd like to get a TP2. I've already got a TP2 within my household, and would like to have one of my own should I not like the Droid.
