From the looks of it, Sprint has gone and gotten a decent chunk of its playbook leaked all over the interblogs, and it's chock-full of titillating information. Thanks to slippery fingers and loose lips, we already knew that the Touch Diamond and Touch Pro were headed to the carrier, but now we have some solid dates (mid-September for the Diamond, October 19th for the Pro), and pricing ($549.99 and $579.99 unsubsidized, $249.99 and $320 with contract). Of course, this is all according to the above document, which admittedly could be the work of an extremely bored Photoshopper -- but this jibes pretty tightly with a lot of other chatter we've been hearing.

didnt find a thread with an offical relase date
i saw ol dude post the price up bout not the release date
looks like 10/19 is wat we are lookin at now
got this off engadget.com

YAy one month from tmw, thats the greatest news ever, i just wish i knew the exact price.

The document shown above is 100% accurate. i work for sprint retail and i already have the Touch Diamond. i got it the day after it was released and it is an awesome phone to say the least. we just got them in the store for sale 2 days ago. so the Touch Pro will probably take about 1 1/2 weeks to reach the stores after the release date of 10/19.

I wish I was wrong as well but that is the news I was handed... I dont like the Nov 2nd date either but I have no doubt unless things change from now to then that this will be the date. He has never let me down before and has always updated me of the changes in plans. Like I said the info came from about as far up the food chain as possible... My contact- VP- CEO...

If you are tired of reading release date threads simply skip em.
They are not going to stop and I actually like them as I'm sure lots of other people do.

Actually the Pro, it's photos, and the videos, were all created by Industrial Light & Magic. There is no such device.

The way I see it, EVP is not part of Sprint. Therefore, how can someone from that company speak about a launch of a carriers phone? I bet they're just talking about when their going to have the phones available for purchase. I haven't seen a Diamond locally yet, I heard they have em in some stores though. The only way your probably going to be able to get a PRO at launch is phone or online ordering, just as with the Diamond. And, $5 is a small bet, I challenge to put that to test for the 19th. PayPal anyone?!?!

not that this info is anymore accurate than the other release dates people have thrown around these forums but i was told by 3 different people that the Pro will be available in stores on the 23rd of October. this was in store talking to a sales manager in sacramento, ca. and two different reps on the phone. also my sister in irvine, ca was told that the 23rd is when they are getting the PRO. then talking to a manger in the retention dept, he told me that the phone would be released towards the end of this month and stores should be getting them around the 23rd date that i was told. but who knows, it will come out when it comes out. the question is should i wait till they work any kinks that might arise with the first batch of phones or get it the day it comes out?

Probably wait, unless your existing phone is virtually dead
