Yeah this whole release seems to be really botched. I just spoke to my local radiovshack and they expect the phone mid 2012. They have no clue when its coming and there is no info sent to them from corporate that was received from sprint.

Really weird
I should have pre-ordered.
Congrats to those with a phone in hand!!

Just called my local store.

"We haven't been given a release date yet." Side-stepped the question if they had any in stock. My guess is Sprint is just waiting to see if they can fill all the pre-orders then will release a true release date. Hopefully it's tomorrow, would be nice to have a new toy over my 3 day weekend haha

We are at the mercy of Sprint. They have been horrible at communicating during this whole ordeal. Phones are being shipped yet they are still sitting on an official launch date. This is screwing up 3rd parties, Sprint Stores, etc.

The only people who are happy campers are Sprint Preorderers. Which is the way it should be, but to an extent. This is getting quite ridiculous.

I feel like there are other issues and Sprint is dragging their feet so that they can make it to the 3 day weekend.

Again the lack of communication is their weak point. If they would just communicate it would satisfy a lot of people. The original release date was a week ago. The delay in customs was less than a week, or at least less than a week as far as we know right? So, it makes no sense at all that the delay after passing customs should be more than how long it was sitting in customs. Now, for all I know these could have been in customs for a month but we didn't find out about it until the last minute so maybe that's why Sprint is now scrambling.
