Desire shipments delayed until April 7th

---

Same for all the shops...damn!

Yep, just got a reply now from Handtec.co.uk (what are they doing up at this time!):

"Thank you for your email,

The HTC Desire sim free release date has now been slightly postponed, this is in response to confirmation from HTC that the release of this product will not be the previously mentioned 29th March but will be anytime between now and the 7th April,

I do apologise for this delay however this will not only affect Handtec however will affect all UK retailers as this has been imposed by HTC directly, however once the stock arrives we will promptly dispatch the goods,

Please advise if we can assist you further."

Damn.

That's funny, then how has mine been despatched by T-Mobile and they actually have them in?

Or is this just the retail / sim free units?

That's very upsetting! It's on their website now, too.

I thought the same, but their response to me made reference to sim free versions being delayed. No idea why this would be. Gutted really.

I got an e-mail from T-Mobile, saying mine has already shipped.

Supposedly it should reach me tomorrow (Saturday).

Clove sent me an email this afternoon too saying more or less the same thing. They emphasized that the unlocked/sim free version is delayed though, that's probably why the T-Mobile ones are shipping out no problem. Just a guess about that last one though.

Yeah I got the same from Clove back to the 7th

A little annoying but I will just have to put up with the hd2 for another week or so I guess. Cant complain to much.. Just returned to its original release date. Also received the mail from Clove at about half 5-6ish..

I guess it goes to show the pushing power the networks have when they want the hardware to go to them first.
