woot!

hye lukaswat,
thanx! i'm one of the "dutchies" on this forum lol
and i wanna thank you for this link!
i ordered the desire from day 2 it was announced, so thats like allmost 2months ?
everyday, i look on youtube for some new videos.. and this is really great news !
pleas keep posting thing if you know something new... i'm not really a twitter person.
hartelijk dank lukaswat!

Hey Hans!
Welcome to the club! I ordered it the first day it was announced, 16th of February. Today this is exactly 6 weeks ago.
Will do Hans! No thanks!

Thanks lukaswat. Another Dutchie Desire Fan here (well, an Ex-Pat living in NL!)
It's been agonising seeing my UK friends take delivery of their phones as I wait patiently!
Thanks for the info!

About the "schedule" he's talking about:
"Bij de officiele aankondiging hadden we "half April" gezegd. Desire is nu "begin April". Ik kan niet voor winkels spreken..."
This means:
"At the official announcement we told you "half of april". It will now be "early April", but i can't speak for the shops..."

hmm,now I am dissapointed... PDAshop.be allready said desire's delivery date would be 9 april.
i tought it would be released on 1-2 april or something.
I actually dont get it, the devices are ready.... So why do we have to wait ?
i hope its worth it, i come from an iphone 3g 16gb, first android device for me

Disappointed? Why? Mark already said the 9th of april was a proper delivery date, and he said that quite some time ago. And now he says it's ahead of schedule, so maaaaybe 2nd of april! God i hope so!

Nice! I wont be back in NL until 25 April anyway, but this is great news for the other hollanders here ^^

ohyeah , sorry... my bad
i hope so, what are you gonna do, first charge the battery ? or use it first...
where did you ordered it btw?

I'm just gonna use it till its ~20%, and then use it while its on the charger and give it a couple of cycles of 20%-80% i think.
Ordered it at PDAShop/CoolBlue, a buddy of mine works there, and he said i'm probably like the 2nd or 3rd that has ordered there

im gonna do just the same as you just play, play & play.
that could be, I was number 6 hehe the brown one ..

Hey guys what is the best way to buy this phone in NL???
i dont really care if it is under contract or not, as long as the contract is not more than 35 euro and it is 1 year.

wich supplier ?

Just checked the PDA Shop website again and I see they have bought the date forward by two days. It's showing "Verwachte leverdatum: 07-04-2010" (for the brown version, still showing as 9th for Silver).
Good news....could be better, but good news none the less!

I've ordered mine at algebeld.nl, and the delivery date is still april 2.
Here is a overview someone made on tweakers.net (thx mbrouns):
KPN/Hi 21-april
Telfort 17-april
PDAshop 9-april
Phonehouse 8-april
2Call 7-april
Dynabyte 7-april
GSMweb 2-april
Smartphonestunt 2-april
Vodafone 2-april
Algebeld 2-april
too bad Mark Moons didn't say any date.

Btw. is it possible to buy unlocked phone under contract in the netherlands?

Very good news, i ordered mine aswell at smartphoneshop.be, 2 days earlier, NICE

RHODIUM owners come here !!!!!

Let's count here to see actually how many Touch Pro 2 owners are here
I'm guessing there are more visitors than owners on this rhodium site
Hi,
After Kaiser, Raphael, I have now a french Rhodium unbranded (unfortunatly for hard spl with samsung chip).
++
I bought mine from CLOVE.CO.UK on May 30th .
I had it sent to a friend's address in London as I couldn't risk loosing it or getting it stuck at customs here in Istanbul.
So I flew to London just for a day to pick it up from my friend )))
It was the most expensive phone I ever bought

Couldn't you just buy out HTC for that money?
I like to be the first to own some things and there is cost for that which I am willing to pay.
I remember flying to Germany to buy the Sony Ericsson P1i on the first date it was ever released......
The funny thing I went in the morning and flew back home the same day and the German police at the passport control couldn't understand why I would fly to another country to buy a phone and return home the very same day, he tought I was upto something else

Does it count that I have had 4 so far? Sent 3 back for being faulty.
I'm sure there is more than 100 owners, especially with all the comments going round in this forum.

If you figure out how please add "once it hits my carrier I will own it" because the US carriers have not released it yet.
Got it two weeks ago. Prefer SPB Mobile Shell 3 over TouchFlow3D.

I'm sorry it won't allow me.
But anyway , thinking of buying and ordering the the thing are two different things. You may think of buying TP2 but but decide on a Nokia N97 for example, this could affect the outcome of the Poll When you bought it or ordered it, you could vote here
Seems like so far only 66 of us , I doubt we could make it to 100 owners..
got one about a week back.
got mine for a while now and touchflo 3d beats mobishell on tp2.
Agree with Shingers here, having tried SPb Mobile Shell, I much prefer TF3D. Smooth, intuitive and well, just very pretty! (=
It's the thing that most impresses people when I take out my phone and *ahem* brag a little. I bought mine about two weeks ago. Unlocked, generic ROM, unbranded HTC, roughly 800 dollars.
GOt my tmobile one, for free
Got mine 3 weeks ago - ordered in uk! perfect companion so far with some bugs left...

HTC DESIRE HD in India.

I have been waiting for this phone ever since it was announced and now iv finally got some news of availability in india and its coming soon..
check it out .. sorry cant post urls as of now copy paste the link below thanx .
igyaan.in/2010/11/igyaan-exclusive-desire-hd-and-desire-z-india-launch-on-10th-dec-prices/[/url]
Good News...Badly waiting for it...Looks like the rates are cheaper than what u get in europe...Not sure what's the catch....
WOW they keep rolling them out to other countries despite that according to htc they 'cant keep up with demand' and that is just demand in the uk. i guess this is the reason for the delays ......
however it is good news for those of you who want to pick one up on contract i guess
@Noobdeagle
-No we don't have phones on contract in India...all are sim unlocked.
-You can buy phone from carriers but still have to pay the unlocked price
Recently they released in germany and checked amazon and other sites...its already out of stock in Germany...so Even the phone is announced in india...only the almighty knows how long it will take to actually feel one in hand

really all sim unlocked sounds better than on contract i always import sim-free and no where usually want to sell new handset sim free unlocked and unbranded which is frustrating otherwise id probably have one in my hands already.
i guess htc must just want to get it out there as a sort of advertisement for the product, to get people stuck on never ending waiting lists lol
@v6kgang - well all i can say is that the phone was supposed to release in Nov thru vodafone not bundled or sumthin may be for the launch of 3G but as vodafone 3G is delayed till next year so i think it will be available from local dealers. Since vodafone guys have no clue i managed to get hold of the official distributor for htc devices in kolkata he is saying that the phone shud be here soon but not willing to give definate dates. but he said one thing for sure the phone is definately coming nd pretty soon. So i have my fingers crossed that the 10th dec date is proper info ...
@Noobdeagle - v6kgang is correct there are jbarely 5% of the phones which are branded but they are mostly low end basic phones.
@Noobdeagle - LOL...was thinking about the same thing...they are not able to keep the promise in europe for timely delivery...They just want to add Asian customers as well to the waiting list i guess...
@gaurav - Knew it mate...u can never trust these guys...i still remember iphone came after 2 years to india on contract and is still being sold at around 30K. If it is sold through retailers the price would be un-imaginable...should well cross the 34K mark...lets keep our fingers crossed

I got news that DHD will be launched after December 28. And pricing is the issue for not launching now.
I'm waiting for the mobile to get released officially , even thought the grey market price is 33k in bangalore.. Hope so the wait is worth it..
hey guys got confirmed news from source in kolkata that the phone is coming next week by 22nd or 23rd which means next week. well i think that means the price tussle between the distributors nd htc is over. THANK GOD FOR THAT .. well the price still seems to be 30k+.... but still i have my fingers crossed nd hope htc follows the schedule this time.

[GUIDE] How to buy pouch from fitbag.de

First of all German is like my third language so Germans don't bash me if it not perfect
READ THIS FIRST
calubren said:
I have to make a short addition. On the frontpage of the shop there's news that all
orders with receipt of money including the 13th December will be sent before christmas.
All orders after the 13th December will be processed/ sent after 3rd January 2012 because of company holiday.
And if you can wait with your order till 19th December I found a 10% voucher for you. Can't post links yet, but search for "fitbag gutschein mobiflip". Click on the first result.
There is also explained how you can request a stitched android on your Alcantara/clothpouch.
The code is "MOBIFLIP.DE" and is valid from 19.12. till 2nd January.

Okay since there are so many different pouches, the easiest will be if you guys just find the one you like with Google Translate
http://translate.google.com/transla...tbag.de/alle-fitbag-handytaschen.html&act=url
Since its only the check out that blocks for translate i'll use screenshot from here
White letters with blue background is my addition
- Type in phone model
- How many
- Add to cart
-Check out
- Check out as guest
- Next
(Still works, just click)
- Fill in details
- Next
- Normal package
- Next
- Choose Paypal
- Next
- Check off
- Check off
- Order
You'll be sent off to paypal to finish here
Nicely done.
However when i tried it a couple days ago it would not load/re direct to Paypal.
So i choose the other option..
The company then sends you your order confirmation via email and Bank details so you can then "wire" them the monies.
I have done it this way.
I will report back once i have received my fit bag to confirm that its a safe to do it this way.
Yeah paypall didnt work for me either first time but a refresh did it

I ordered this morning from amazon.de. I then emailed fitbag.de to be sure that my order was processed, and they said that it would ship sometime this week, probably within a few days. Their customer service is stunning, I don't ever think I've gotten a reply that fast to something I've submitted in a "contact us" box.
Nice guide jvvpc.

all those pouches fit nicely with Galaxy nexus?
that fitBAG Jive Grau just looks awesome....
Thanks calubren, have put it in the top so people will see it
tk_chan - Yeah you just tell them what phone you have and they make it
Nice effort but Google Translate on Chrome does a great job of translating the site for you. I ordered in Nov but still waiting for mine to ship :/
Thanks OP,
I ordered 2
One alcantara ... and One rave textiel
http://shop.fitbag.de/rave-schwarz-handytasche-nach-mass.html
Because I am not sure with alcantara and I thought textiel is cool hehehe ...
Thats weird. Ordered 12/12/11 and I got the shipment mail this morning. Its a normal leather fitbag - no extras as stiching
I ordered this premium pouch from amazon.co.uk
Do you guy sknow whether they would ship to the US?
Just ordered it. Having a little problem with PayPal but solved it by paying as a PayPal guest. Can't wait.

Ok, this is really taking forever... I ordered mine on January 9. Well over three weeks and I still haven't received a shipping e-mail. I e-mailed them and they told me they will ship out "somewhere at the end of next week."
That's over a month >_> I can understand 14 days of wait because it's custom made and all, but still.. This is taking way too to my liking actually..

same here, email received from DAP.
Already being discussed in the UK pre-order thread.
Gutted I got an email about it - got all excited thinking they had dispatched it, to get told information that was (I thought) common knowledge anyway

Well I did wonder a few days ago, when I noticed the amazon launch date set for 24th April: http://www.amazon.co.uk/HTC-H200-Me...HH3Y/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1333481473&sr=8-1
I'm guessing it will be after this date then!

Yeah, and I think it was phones4u that had it displayed as coming later (18th of April to be precise) - and that was when it was only just available for pre-order!
I ordered from Phones4u and it did say before I ordered that the medialink will arrive up to 28days after the phone.

Funny, I remember reading quite clearly on the DAP site that both would come together, else why would they send a follow up email to say this ain't the case no more? Guess P4U must have sent out a diff message form the start?
Phones4u told me on several occasions they would be shipped together, so I guess its bad advice all around.
Got the same email, got my hopes up thinking the phone had been dispatched early

Well i didnt get the htc one x, i couldnt wait cause 4 poo c's jumped me and stole my phone so i wasnt gonna let them get me down. upgraded my wildfire POS to the sensation xe (red) and also got a media server.
I was waiting for this product and found this thread searching for the release date as i was counting on azamoms you kay projected release date of today.
good luck to everyone on a speedy delivery! Im getting one myself hoping it will work on my sensation xe. maybe the 3 finger swipe to the tv wont work but at least i can utilize the built in router for a private network and the full hd capability.

In the shipping costs VAT and taxes to ship the phone out of the US are included, that's why it is so expensive
