Raphael Release Dates / Preorders etc..

---

Figured a thread would be good to see when the Raphael is rumoured to be released and up for sale around the globe.

Perhaps replying in the following format would be useful:

Country: UK
Site/Vendor: MobileFun.co.uk

Offers Pre-Order: Yes

Currently still waiting on the dates from the site but they have a section already set up for the Touch Pro (Raphael) and assure me they are offering preorders once they have more info from HTC. Bought my Hermes from them and they were excellent to deal with.

This was a responce back in June, theyve been really good before so there must be a delay getting info from HTC perhaps.
