Any of you dirty EMAW's know when this phone comes out?  I have heard May 17th and June 7th as possible release dates.  Any word?  I'm getting tired of waiting.

I will be purchasing, I have also heard the 6/7 release date.  For me to believe that Kougs has a pre, he'll need to take a picture of him holding his pre, holding today's newspaper, and a clock with the correct time.  And his Grandmother would have to be in the background holding his birth certificate and a KSU powercat.

[kougar24]

Don't care if you believe me or not bra.

[JTKSU]

Nice tap out Kougs.  You're a liar until proven otherwise.

Limited areas.  I think they started in Baltimore or some loser town like that.

decision:

For Sprint, an associate could choose a Moto-Q9C, Samsung ACE, Treo Palm Pro or HTC Touch Diamond as their default CMP device (all free to associate), however if the associate desired a HTC Touch Pro, it would be an additional $99.


For AT&T, the default device would be the Blackjack II. However optional devices would include the iPhone 3G (8Gb @ $199 and 16Gb @ $299).

BJII I have to pay 39/mo and iPhone 59/mo...

or I can wait for the Pre to come out, but I don't know how much they will charge me per month..it's quite possible, nothing.

What is your vote?

[steve dave]

If there is a chance you can get a Pre with no monthly charge I would definately wait for it. 

[kougar24]

That.

If not, I'd then go with the Treo Pro or Diamond (which depends on your touchscreen v. physical keyboard preference).

I was a big fan of the Treo Pro personally.

[dr00d]

gf has an iphone - although I love messing around with all the apps out there, I hate that touch keyboard....she says I would get used to it and I am sure I would, if I used it everyday but I think I would prefer the real keys.

[pissclams]

the iphone is sweet but not a business phone in any sense of the word

Yeah.  htc_FAN here.

[ew2x4]

I want to upgrade to the diamond from my touch, but me's gots no moneys.

[kougar24]

Unfortunate, as the Diamond is a huge upgrade over the Touch.

Yeah. I was thinking about making an insurance claim, as the Touch's are no longer in stock. But that would be bad.
