Edit 2: "An anonymous source of SDX-Developers just got confirmation through official email from Samsung and Sprint Corporate that advocate devices to be rolled out starting 8/9/2010. They were originally intended to be rolled out 8/6/2010, but was changed due to a “minor delay” they did not disclose. The August 20th release date was officially confirmed as well!"

------------------------------------
Some people have noted to have received internal memos from sprint that pre-orders for epic 4g starts tomorrow....

There is no screenshots of the memo yet but there probably will be one soon...

Edit: Here is a transcript of the memo:

On Thursday, August 5th - if you are a Sprint Premiere customer, you should receive an e-mail containing a link to Pre-Order your Samsung Epic4G
Then, on Friday, August 6th - the general public will receive an email containing the link.

Here are some guidelines for the pre-orders:
-Only one Samsung can be reserved at a time
-Pre-orders will continues through 8/17/2010 (NOTE: The reservations may be closed early if inventory is depleted)
-No Money, Bank, or Credit Card information will be required to reserve a device
- all reserved devices MUST be picked up by noon on the day following the Samsung Epic launch or they WILL BE CANCELLED
-Reservations will be made through sprint.com/ Epic4G

No one said anything about it yet...only confirmed the pre-orders...usually pre-orders are done 2 weeks in advanced...and samsung had a show for epic 4g on aug 20th...so the guess is it will be aug 19th-20th...

but nothing official yet, we will know maybe end of today or tomorrow...

All indications are pointing toward August 20/21....Hopefully that is true because I am growing tired of my Samsung Moment which happens to be the longest tenured cell phone I have ever had (6 months).

with all the production assists and web design people that are entering stuff into the website or computer then you'd think someone would have a definitive release date for this phone.....Cell phone release dates are like conspiracies that are bottled up tight and if anyone speaks then they turn up like Jimmy Hoffa, LMAO
