The magical moving release date of the HERO

Just for giggles shall we put down all release dates that you have heard for the hero
I know of:
3rd July - Orig
20th July - expansys
21st July - king of gadgets
29th July - Play.com
15th August - Amazon.co.uk

Orange upgrades, called them 15th July....
'Call back in 2 months' (!!!!)
True that!

How about Insight
25 expected on 09/09/19
Bit of a long wait.

Devicewire are saying...
...August 7th. The guy I spoke to seemed very knowledgeable and said it was down to Google not signing the licensing agreements in time.

Expansys email confirming will be first week in August, 1st/2nd. Received today

What abuuuuut T-mobile? I've heard other people on here (one actually working for them) saying 17th or 20th.....

Well, all the Swedish stores just say that they don't have any release date or that the phone is not in store yet.
So I've actually not seen a releasedate except the initial 15th of july.

hero
a guy at king of gadgets told me expansys were ordering from HTC europe and that they had stock from HTC UK, and that was why the dates were different!

dutch shops and carriers:
Hi / KPN giving it an expected release of July 22th (was 8, then 14, then 18, then 20).
Pdashop.nl saying the unlocked can be delivered from July 24th onwards.
centralpoint.nl saying 7th of august.
Other webshops saying 'in stock within two weeks'.
So I have no idea, I hope somewhere next week .

See Expansys are back on the 20th July now.

Lols. I know expansys has been around for a long time but this is just stupid.... someone should call them up and tell them to CHILL OUT and put 'WHEN WE BLOODY GET THEM' for the expected date

Expansys have never ever got a release date right, they are just a hype train thats successful in making you preorder and keep waiting. i usually just wait until it says its in stock then just go over and pay cash at the expansys depot (1hr drive) lol

Well expansys UK still say release today, expansys Sweden say the 31th of July...
And I need this phone now..

You even can not rely on expansys when they write they have it on stock - on friday, the 3rd of July, their web page said, they have 100 on stock (at least on their Hong Kong page). I already ordered on July the 1st. But, like all others, did not receive until now.

Motorola Atrix is out of stock!

Got this email today.....from Premier Service that my Atrix is on back order!!!
I ordered the phone Saturday night around 10pm. I have the email confirmation that it being processed then today got the email that it was out of stock....
I called AT&t and they confirmed it was put of stock until further notice.

Item(s) are currently on back-order and will ship when inventory is available.

Got the same email and I pre-ordered 2 hours after it was available for pre-order!!

If I had to guess, I would say that it is backordered because they don't have them in the warehouse yet. It doesn't surprise me, since they aren't due for release untill March.
I don't think that this email means anything. Its is probably just autogenerated because the stock is on the premises.

I just pre-ordered today (in-store at around 12:30) but everything seemed to go through smoothly. It says "Will arrive in 2-3 weeks" on my receipt (which would mean on or before the 6th of March, just like the ads say)

I think you might be right......I think it is just an auto generated email. When I called AT&T today the rep did not know what he was talking about. He told me I would get my Atrix 2 business days after it is shipped...duh.....
Sine I didn't expect to get it until March 6th I guess they have time to make more! I started to panic at first but the more I think about it...its not a big deal. They have time to make ramp up production......

the email can't mean anything. i ordered one hour after preorders were up and i received this email today.
It's 'backordered' because it was a pre-order.

I've now had that email twice in the last five hours...for a Premier Atrix pre-order.

I have not received an e-mail about a back order, but I pre-ordered in store. Is everyone that's getting the notice an online order or premier order? Also are you setting up a new account, upgrading or adding a new line?

[INFO] Amazon new delivery date !!!

Bad news for anyone who has ordered through amazon...They have changed their delivery date from 18th Apr to 1st June.....I'm glad I cancelled my order this morning and went with comet....should be coming Thurs.

Bloody Hell, thats one hell of a delay, not just by a few days, but over a month, i wonder what has made them change their release date.

Dang.
My order is still saying that it will be sent out on 18th. Will update if it changes.

Ouch glad I went with comet now. I would advise looking at my post about the comet discount and then applying for the keyboard offer from asus as that works out at £405 for both.

I don't understand why there is such a long delay. They( Asus) will lose a lot of sales as there will be the Acer and the Galaxy 10.1 competing in June and who knows what else....HTC, LG

Yep....I did and got the discount although others have said they couldn't - may be a regional thing.
They still have them available online...next day delivery !

It could be that as they are coming off the production line they are being distributed to suppliers, so they have not stock-piled for a big on-mass release ?

Don't know tbh it was just a thought, maybe Asus are distributing to Comet first as they have physical stores that people can see a demo model.

Ebuyer`s dates have gone back too: April 22nd for the tablet on its own and the 19th MAY for the dock bundle, which I had pre-ordered. On the off chance I gave Carphone warehouse a call this lunch time to ask on delivery times for the tablet. I was told if I ordered before 4pm it would be delivered tomorrow. Placed order immediately and cancelled my Ebuyer preorder. I`ll take Asus up on their offer to order the dock direct from them
Roll on tomorrow

That's MAY in case people are wondering... Very glad I went with Comet in the end, I also will be taking ASUS up on their pre-order deal!

Still 18th April for me (on amazon.co.uk). I ordered yesterday.

Wow, never noticed it was May! Glad I phoned CPW now.
Thanks for the heads up

"Dispatch Estimate: 18 April 2011" <-- in my order.
"This item will be released on June 1, 2011." <-- on the info page
I'll cancel the order if they push the date. June 1 sounds like a joke, there will be many more interesting tablets to choose from then.
I can't take Asus on the preorder deal because I'm not from UK and the deal is only for UK.

I'm using mine right now, I walked into comet and picked it up, wasn't any on display so make sure you ask someone, did I get bit early?

I remember when I was waiting for my Kindle they kept changing the date on the info page but the date on my order never changed - which was when i got it.
I never read too much into Amazons estimated dates tbh.

Just cancelled my order and ordered via carphonewarehouse.. still in stock.. and delivered on thursday..... will as many others order the dock once it arrives !

Dispatch. 8.April 2011
Delivery 20-21.April 2011

Hopefully the order date is the one that matters. If not I'm going to have to take this as a message from God. Nobody wants to sell me a Honeycomb tablet, time to get an iPad.

I have the eee pad transformer & k/board bundle on order with amazon since 4th April for an 18th April dispatch. When I saw the date change to 1st June was going to cancel, but managed to get a customer service number for amazon uk
Rang them & they told me that there was enough eeepads & k/board bundles in there fulfilement centre to despatch April 18th for everyone that pre-ordered before April 11th. If you pre-ordered after that date you dont get the bundle until june 1.
Bottom line is if your estimated dispatch date hasn't changed & is still showing April 18th on your order then you made the cut!!

The Official "I got my tracking confirmation!" thread

Well guys, the countdown to shipping is on with the most consistent "rumor" being that phones will start shipping on the 18th. With the 17th being the day AT&T usually launches high end phones alot of us are thinking we're gonna get our hands on it sooner than the official launch date of the 21st so if you get your tracking confirmation, post here with your place of purchase and eta.

You may have also posted this in the att section? Any reason for creating a new thread?

If they were shipping to have them delivered on or before the 17th they would have shipped this afternoon with delivery on Friday. Doesn't look like that's happening. My guess would be shipping on Monday afternoon the 18th with delivery on the 20th.

Which is why I created this thread. With so much info floating around out there as to when shipping will commence, this will give us a central location to let it be known who's shipping, when and when it's to be expected.

For Sprint I'm guessing Monday shipping with Tuesday latest Wednesday arrival. Sprint seems to exclusively overnight their packages but without the Saturday delivery option.

thread closed. we know everyone is either waiting for, or has got the phone. while i know you are eager i don't feel tracking posts have a place in the forum. please use other discussion threads where appropriate

You are not alone. Ordered in store at noon, got tracking number from USPS (Memphis) around 1800.
Part of me is excited that I should get it within a day or two, but part of me wishes I had a case ready for it. Oh well, it's just a few days.....the case should be in on Tuesday.

I ordered at roughly 5PM AZ time and so far my order is "In Progress". I'm hoping it ships tomorrow and I'll have it monday!

I ordered in-store Tuesday and it showed up less than 24hrs later Wednesday.

My order is "processing". If I don't see a change in my order status by 3pm which I think is their deadline for orders to ship for the day then I'll be in the slow boat to a GS3...
