Dear all, I was initially awaiting for the countdown of my DHD from Expansys, and supposedly its another 11 days to the 11th of Oct whereby our DHD will be released... But when I checked my order status just now, the estimated delivery date becomes 19 days... Is it that the system has problems, or is it that HTC decided to postpone the release date of DHD?
I'm expecting some sort of delay from HTC. I think we're probably going to be ending up looking towards the end of October for release and us actually having the handset in our hands.
MPD still says 11th. We shall see.
Jeez dont be saying that. I have sold my 2 phones and now working with an old Nokia which has the cover hanging off it.
I hope that aint true
If that is true i may have to go and buy an Orange San Francisco until then ...
T-mobile have delayed their launch it's in November now!
I've also put pre-order with mobilephonesdirect.com they were admant it will be 7th Oct.
In my past experience release dates mean nothing. There always seam to be a delay of some sort. I agree with the end of October being a more realistic time of this phone getting in my hand. I wanted it back on September 15th but good things come to those who wait I suppose.

I am in a similar position, using 9500 Commie with a semi broken keyboard
The release date will delay in Finland even further, or do you think that HTC has made enough phones this time to answer the demand?
I too am suspecting a delay .... there have been no reviews by any of the android sites which is normal a week or so before launch to gain interest for the phone and the blogging has been quiet as well.
Disappointed but not surprised, again it will be interesting to hear what the cause of this is. I am watching the prices of Desires on ebay as they are going down in price and am wondering whether the DHD is worth the differential!!
Hope
Hmm ive looked at quite a few different sites and no one elso seems to have changed their dates. So i hoping it is just a problem on expansys part and then everyone else will get their HD's in the first week or 2 of next month!
I can't see this phone being released by the end of next week. There are no solid reviews out. Normally release models have been sent out for review. As long as it's out for November 16th my upgrade date I'll be happy.

Hopefully they've just sold out of their first batch, and the dates on the site reflect the expected arrival of the second batch...?
Hopefully sub69
I called Vodafone tonight, they still have no release date for the Desire HD, but their Desire Z release date is November 1st. Somehow the guy managed to talk me into buying a Galaxy S.

Solid reviews? Have there been any yet. Normally Engadget are pretty hot with reviews and I'm keeping my ear close to the ground for any rumblings of hands on other than the leaks.
same here suffer with the nokia n85...
clove as same stock sipping date: "First stock due 6th October", i hope that it will stay the same.
My amazon.co.uk account says:
Dispatch Estimate: 11 Oct 2010
Delivery Estimate: 13 Oct 2010 - 14 Oct 2010 (to germany )
Clove still says 6th october for first stock - hopefully that will arrive on time and I'll get one of them
All Swedish online retailers I've checked have October 14th-16th as the release date, and that's how it's been ever since the DHD first appeared on those sites. It's never had an earlier date than that in Sweden.
My order at Expansys still has the 11th/12th October delivery date. Let's hope it stays that way
guyz..it's at least 2 years that release date of brand new hi-end htc devices it's the first week of november...

I also emailed SupereTrader and they said that they will arrive from the 6th to the 13th. So im hoping before the end of next week !
Was holding off with my order but have just ordered through clove.co.uk so hopefully will have my hands on this badboy next week!
Their website states the 11th Oct which is still better then Nov.
Yer im confused as to what to follow .... maybe 6th is the date but they are saying 11th just in case there is a lil delay
What difference does it make 6th or 11th life goes on, enjoy what you have and make a difference to someone.

I hope you do get it asap. But when I ordered the HTC HD2 from superetrader they advertised as in stock & immediate shipping 2 days before the actual release date. So I rang them & they said yep we have 3 in now for immediate shipping so I ordered & waited the next day & the next, so I rang them & they said that they hadn't had chance to pack it & post it. Another day went by & nothing, so i rang & same excuse.
3 days later when everyone else was shipping did I get mine.
I won't be using them again.
Hope u have no problems with them, I just don't believe a word they say.
Ahhhh shoot...!

SuperEtrader now quote an 11th October release date.
Shame, but I still keep finding new fun things to do with my HTC Desire, so maybe a little longer before I send it off to a new owner isn't too bad...
...
Nope, not good enough. I wish my new phone would f**king hurry up and get here!
clove in the only one that set it to oc 6 ? i hope so...
I'm fine with 11. That would be next week.
I went into Carphone Warehouse and Phones4U in Aberdeen today and neither had a clue when it would be in stock. One salesman suggested the end of November.
I accept there will be a delay between online and retail but even that seems a bit much.
I'm pinning my hopes on orange as I'm due for an upgrade now-ish. Hopefully they'll get their collective arse in gear and stock the HD before too long. However I feel I'm going to be waiting longer than I want to

Got told by Orange that its gonna be November time
Gutted as my upgrade is due now, so my beloved Hero will have to hold on a little longer
I really hope Orange get this phone. I'm due my upgrade in 6 weeks. I'm not that confident and I don't really want to switch networks and lose all my loyalty perks. Fingers and toes crossed.

My HERO is serving well with Elelinux V1.9 but it is time upgrade. The phone is starting to age very rapidly and I think it's slowly dying I can wait until november but I hope it doesn't slip.

I'm in the same shipping bracket (jan 15-22). It seems people with an expected shipping date of Jan 9 finally got their Adam shipped. So, we need to wait a couple of more days?
I'm the 15-22 also and have yet to get a shipping notice

Rohan just posted unboxing photos of Adam in his blog.
Adams were shipped in 2 steps - China to HK, and HK to India. So, there is 2 tracking numbers for each unit and the 1st one (China to HK) is not share with a customer. So, I expect those people in the pre-order 1 batch will receive the long waited tracking number soon.
Got the email with TNT tracking info today ;-)
Congratulation!
I hope they ship mine (Jan 15-22) before the Chinese New Year holiday.
9th Jan pre-order here and also got shipping confirmation today!
got e-mail mine was shipped too
Most of the 15-22nd batch orders have been changed to shipping on the 29th this morning. Mine was.

Yes. Mine has changed to 29th too.
Mine, too. Jan9 to Jan15-22, now Jan 29. So, it's a shipment delayed, not pre-poned.
The February orders were preponed, ours were postponed. Possibly combining the February and late January orders

OK, time for me to post here, every post I have made on the NI blog is "awaiting moderation"
While it’s not life altering it is a bit disappointing that my shipment has been moved from the 22 to the 29th, but I’ll patiently wait. It’s looking like a pretty good piece of tech and I love my gadgets
There seems to be a lot of people on the NI blog who think this tablet is going to change their lives, I hope they are not disappointed when it arrives, after all, it is just a computer. Yeh, it’s definately the leader in its field at a great price… but it is still just a piece of tech.
My speculation for why there are delays is that NI are buying production time in a Chinese factory, so actual production days are out of their control. Surely if it was their own factory the production line would be running continuously and we wouldn’t have batch 1 / batch 2. Just my speculation and I have been wrong once once or twice in my life before.
Same here. None of my posts on the blog make it either. My last one was a my 2 cents, hurry up and wait being something im use too, just chill no need to stress since the lucky preorders while have their adams soon enough and will look back and maybe laugh. I'm just hoping it turns out all good and I will get a chance to order also. Its just tech, will all be looking for our next big toy after this one....still eye'ing a kinect.
Mine is at Lisbon at this moment, but according to TNT they cant release it yet, and only tomorrow ill be able to grab it, but since i got to work maybe only at night ill be able to post some videos of the unboxing.
24 Jan 2011 11:34:24 Lisbon Shipment Awaiting Physical Release From Customs Controlled Area.
Same here... originally the 9th. Pushed back to 15-22. Now it's showing the 29th.
It was pretty clever of Rohan to blog about orders being "pre-poned" when in reality this only applies to the February orders which was the smallest batch of the pre-orders. Based on Rohans comment in the latest blog post, it looks like the next largest number of people were in the 15-22 range and their orders have actually been delayed yet again. What a creative use of the press...
Seems like those ready to get their hands on the HTC One in Singapore yesterday (9/3/13) will have to wait quite some time longer. HTC has decided to abort the supposed launch of the One at the Singapore IT Show yesterday without giving any specific reasons. Carriers M1, Singtel and Starhub were getting prepped and ready for the launch with the launch gifts and offers and then suddenly announced that they're no longer offering the phone. And HTC finally responded and said that the One will be delayed until April at the very least. What do you think? Supply issue?
I saw a demo unit at one retailer, and I was kinda happy that we can still set up the number of home screen pages we want and not use blinkfeed, which I think is great. The price tag under the demo phone just wrote "Price to be announced".

In Spain it is announced for April too.
Mine is pre-ordered with these guys, however, they've told me T-Mobile wont run a credit check until its out, so I wait anxiously to see if I can even have one.
Just looked on the site and now its says," delivery in 8 working days". Which brings us into the week after next.
Whats taking so long for companies to release this bad boy?
It's really annoying because they were quick enough to snap the £44 quid out my account.
For those who have pre-ordered, are you still expecting yours Friday / into next week ?
Last I spoke to them on the phone they said that HTC confirmed that they would he getting a batch of them this week BY the 29th at the latest(into their warehouse) for delivery beginning of April ie your 8 days. If they get them in earlier they will ship them earlier. I noticed that the date had changed as well so will be calling.them again tomorrow to see what's happening. Been waiting since 02.03.13 so eager to get my hands on it. I will update you tomorrow when I speak to them.
