[Was] TP no longer backordered! In stock now... [Now] Out of stock again :(

[exces6]

I talked to a Sprint store rep today, and he said he could drop ship me one and I'd have it in a few days. Does anyone know if I could get one in this way or if they use the same system as the online orders?

Thanks!

Just got a big lump of coal in my Christmas stocking:

The HTC Touch Pro will not be available until January 11, 2009. I just found out yesterday on this inventory report.


This is from our regional sales mgr.

i still think thats an illogical conclusion. We dont know if they got in 100 or 1000, so saying theyre selling fast because theyre out again really means nothing without more information. Theres a huge difference if they sold out a stock of 100 or 5000, plus what number of those were used for swaps or people with issues with their first ones.

Honestly, id venture to guess with certainty that phones like the storm have still sold many many more units.

I'll save you the trouble. The newer rom fixes the over the air activation issues. It's the same otherwise.

Well I called in a cpl times yesterday (once only minutes after this thread started) and nothing. Mine is for a replacement within my 30 days (which was past weeks ago).

One rep said "no expected date" and another said "January 18th". I have 2 TPs and having one that works great and one that is a POS is really pissing me off. I requested a replacement mid November and keep getting told to "call back latter". After a 90+ minute call every time. Funny thing is, the phone has over heated and killed the battery twice while calling in about it. And to think, the rep calls the same number back and leave me a VM to call CS back to tell me to call back latter because they are out of stock.
