Official ROM Release Date Confirmed!

Read this before you start flaming....

So, recognizing that it is definately NOT early Q1 2008 anymore, I decided to go on an info seeking quest with Sprint Customer Service. After about 45 minutes of being put on hold...transfered twice...some social engineering....I finally got transfered to a device engineer. Mind you, this was not any type of customer service rep or tech support guy. This was an engineer who actually worked on it.

He confirmed, and very quickly I might add (didn't need to look anything up....he immediately knew the answer), that the update we all DESPERATELY want will come out this Friday, February 15th. I said to him, "This Friday? That's a strange day. You guys usually release on Mondays." He replied, "Yes, it is an unusual day. We are releasing it on Friday because it's already late to market."

I think this is pretty credible info. He backed it up with admission of a strange release day and the fact that it's late.

Now, bring it on Naysayers....

I done with speculating, hoping, wishing, and waiting...I won't believe anything I hear even from Sprint,

I done with speculating, hoping, wishing, and waiting...I won't believe anything I hear even from Sprint, Microsoft, or HTC themselves. You can count on all of them like you can count on gas to get 2 dollars cheaper within the week. When it is available for download is when I will believe

Apprehensive optimism

Did you think to ask if it was an official 6.1 build or just a 6.0 build? Not that I think I would ever go back to a Sprint ROM ever again though, all I care about if an official Radio and Rev. A PRL

Honestly.... who cares about their ROM's at this point. Anything by No2Chem and DCD is better anyhow.
