I just got the same email, but when you follow the link it still says "Stock Arriving 28th July"! So, it is arriving, or has it arrived???
Regards,
Dave

Devicewire have 3 in stock by now and Clove have it in Stock too. Did anyone placed an order could update?

Yes they have 3 in stock now and my order is still "pending approval" Handtec also has them but the will ship them tomorrow.

Handtec also have them in stock now and are offering car charger, case & protectors as freebies for £394.
Only problem (for me) is all these sim-free phones are white.
Glenn

Expansys.ro offer it in Brown.

White handsets......
no no no no no no no no

Not sure but I think it's better than Brown
Ordered mine with Handtec... usually a great service

king of gadgets

If its anything like my pans then EVERYTHING will stick to it

What's deal with Teflon coated?
So does Teflon coated mean that we won't need invisible shield on those suckers?

These are for zagg.com he is talking about the invisible shield they make for the touch pro. Over at ppcgeeks.com a guy said techound1 works. I think the ones listed here are one time use only. The one from ppcgeeks has worked for a lot of people.

Poor guy
InvisibleSHIELD really suck!
www.bodyguardz.com are better... and you get 2 sets!
I agree with the above poster
I will never again order a invisbleshield and in fact I am going to cancell my order with them.
I purchased a so called invisibleshield on Saturday. A full day later another user purchased his and received his order yesterday. I then e-mailed the company to ask about the status of my order. Received no response.
I then called the company and the incompetent individual they had answering the phones could only tell me that the order is processing. I then asked when it might ship. He had no idea.
If this company is a reflection of it's customer service I would steer clear of this product an in this company as a whole.
I would just purchase one of these and be done with it. http://www.bodyguardz.com/Articles.asp?ID=132
If you purchased one from them return it.
Sorry for the rant!

Oh yeah I got 2 of those as well. Guess what. Tried to give those to somebody else to order a device and they didn't work. Yet again another shinning example of the excellent quality support this company has!
I ordered an invisibleshield last week and received a shipping confirmation email within 24 hours. Of course, now it's been 7 days and haven't received it yet. We'll see what the actual shipment date is marked on the package. I had a bodyguardz on my Tilt and it worked very well. Not sure why I switched, guess I'll see which brand I prefer.

Please let me know which one you think is better.
But bodyguardz.com don't have HTC Fuze yet, only Touch Pro
ordered my invisible shield on last friday. got mine today (thursday) fits great..kinda. evidently zagg got lazy and reused the front shield from the htc diamond. its obvious as the corners arent rounded like the touch pro, instead squarish exactly lik ethe diamond
yea those guys at Zagg are aholes. I had it on my previous two phones and i had to re-order each time because they didnt cut it right to fit the phone initlaly and they wanted me to pay for it again. Had to argue my way out of that one for some reason. I am hoping bodyguardz come out with the fuze shield soon

fuze and the touch pro is the same device just different names for it
the touch has a camera up front the fuze does not. i had a invisibleshield on my herald and it worked great, the full coverage i bought. the screen protector actually gave my phone a better feel when i touched it compared to my friends with a stock protector.
i praised them alot during my time with the herald, i bought it for the fuze and it was extremely hard to get on and now that its on it looks terrible. im guessing it was easier on the herald because of the material they used. the tilt and fuze and other phones use the more common material.
ill try the guard and let yall know how it goes
well, i got 1 set touch pro, 1 set for iphone 3g lol
Yeah, when I ordered mine (By phone!) from Micro Heaven in the UK, they sent me an iPod Touch one not a Touch Pro one. I spoke to cust services and they confirmed that touch pro was on the order, just some [email protected] in the warehouse picked it wrong.
Oh well, they sent me a prepaid return bag the next day, so at least they don't expect me to return it at my own expense.
evilc:
Holy crap on a cracker!!!! i didn't receive yet, shall i afraid of the mistake??
Well this topic was switched me from Invisibleshield to Bodyguardz lol.
Any recommendations for avoiding getting fingerprints on the sticky side of the plastic?

yep, amazon is right, but rest of the on line store get some high price.
Haha if it was inc. vat i would have already ordered It's a shame everything has tax They could at least take it off of the phones for us techy's
That is a price drop. I canceled my order two days ago and told them straight it was because Handtec was cheaper. Interesting..
Isnt the deal modaco has better? As its what maybe 15/20£ more exspensive but has a fair bit of extra goodies?
Getting the cheapest deal is not always the right choice.
I'd rather purchase my hardware from someone whom I trust and know should there be a problem they are only a phone call away and there to offer assistance.
Funnily enough it's the same name as the OP mentions... Clove Tech.
I've known Chris Love for nigh on 20yrs now and know although he sells hardware each of his customers are at the front of his continued commitment.
It's a family business with a strong sense of family values for it's customer base.

You can't order a black DHD because there won't be a black DHD nowadays. Maybe later!

you're seriously going to skip out on this phone because of the colour?
SupremeBeaver said:

Yes, I think colour is all part of the phones aesthetics, and all I can seem to find mentioned colour wise is dark brown, although a lot of the pictures of prerelease devices seem to show them in black.
So unless I can get it confirmed that it will be black, I will have to look at something else (maybe just a HD2 with the Desire HD rom for a good chunk less money).
Might seem a little silly to some people, but I don't think brown looks very good on any electrical device.
Fair enough. The link above lists the DHD as black. It even has some pictures of the back. So maybe HTC is shipping black and brown versions after all.

Will have to wait and see, my preferred e-tailer (Amazon) couldn't state at this point whether the ones they'd receive would be black or brown, if they are mixed, or brown, I sure hope they change the pictures of the black device on their website.
To me the front is almost black, cause the screen ocuppies almost the total front area.
The back is most dark brown, but for the back I don't care much
As the phone has a 'unibody' design, the brown colour had to be applied. So it should not be beyond the wit of man, with the use of masking tape and a spray gun, to make it whatever colour rocks your boat...
Isn't a DHD a "Dial Home Device" anyway? Can't go stealing established TLAs for new devices....
Anyone got any official confirmation on the new 6th Oct release date?
handtec is receiving stock on the 4th Obctober
Just had an e-mail from Clove about the colour:-
It will be in Graphite which is a nice colour (v similar to Desire)
Back orders are strongly recommended as demand is very strong

Looks like I will be interested in this phone after all then.
As a side question here, does anyone know of any places selling cases for the Desire HD yet, or to be released at the same time as the actual phone?

Does ANYONE have a bumper yet?

I haven't seen anything about the bumper yet. Does anyone have one?
Good? Bad? Details?
I think one person from Sydney said they had one. Should never have added the thing to my order and maybe I'd have the N4 shipped by now.
Oooooh yeah that's it - they don't ship the phone because they don't have enough bumpers!

Seems ridiculous doesn't it, much like most of the N4 launch, but no one who ordered any device in the same order as a bumper has had any of the order shipped. They state "Order ships when all items are available" in your cart when you purchase.
Show me someone with one shipped and it's dis-proven.

Google did this with the n7 launch with people who bought any accessory and tablet at launch. Most waited over a week before it shipped.

HTC One Pre-Order Black Only

Thought I'd start a thread for black only devices as silver seems pretty readily available at most carries in the uk.
I Pre ordered from Vodafone on the 5th March and am sadly still waiting anyone else received any info regarding black apart from the fact it's looking like they will fulfil orders by 4th April.
Ordered a black ONE from Mobile Phones Direct. At the time of ordering they were showing a delivery date of 29th. Looking at their website now it is still showing as 29th so holding thumbs. I originally pre-ordered a black one from them on the 02 March with a delivery date of 15th, but cancelled it for a cheaper deal but later delivery date of 29th. Just as well because I got an email saying that the 15th order was delayed to 29th anyway, so saved some cash and no real loss. Can't wait to get my hands on it though.
I ordered my black HTC One from P4U on the 14th and got a dispatch email about an hour ago saying it will arrive tomorrow. Am I right to be very doubtful about this? Seems too good to be true haha

No they were good for me when I got the same email it was there the next day, track your order on royal mail. They were first to get hold of the silver models. Is it SIM only or on new or upgrade contract?

Its a new contract, I originally pre-ordered with CPW but they had delays so I changed to P4U (also better deal). Im really looking forward to getting my hands on the black one I haven't seen too many pictures/videos of it so far.

When you do please take lots of pics and let us know how it feels When I first saw the black version I instantly fell in love with it, but unfortunetly since I am going to upgrade with T-Mobile UK they only offer the silver.
Me! I preordered mine at Handtec. Hope I get mine soon so I could kick some serious development for this device.

3rd of April delivery with CPW. I'd rather wait a week for the black which imo looks a lot better than the silver.

It's personal preference in the silver you can appreciate the design more then the black. silver stands out more. The only reason I prefer the black is because the last few devices I've owned have all been white, so looking for bit of change. Mind you I've got silver which looks brilliant.

I really hope so, got mine pre-ordered with free Beats Solo Headphones, if I hadn't got that deal I would probably have switched over to P4U by now and just went silver...

Should be the same materials I'd hope! I prefer black over white as the me it seems more unified. Also for some reason i think the notification LED will stand out more when contrasting with black, however I'm probably wrong!

White only?!!!!

It's available now in their own site... in white ONLY!!!Colors coming in mid September?...Why didn't they let people know that upfront? That's not good Huawei if you wanna be trusted....
That is disappointing..would have been nice if they definitely told people that.
Well I pre-ordered my phone a couple weeks ago and the release dates were pretty clear for each colour.

I'm okay with this. By the time the blue is available there should be some decent in-depth reviews to help make my decision to buy.
someone in my country is already selling this as early as early august .. and he have gold blue and black and white i guess.
