thats a bunch of crap, they said the same thing a couple of months ago. They're REALLY bad with customer service and phone updates. I think I may consider moving to Verizon who knows what problems they can't resolve when the EVO gets here
I was in a Sprint store yesterday at the mall in Taylor, MI and I asked the guy that works there and he told me sometime in the last 2 weeks in June. So pretty much First Half of 2010 was a blatant lie. As usual we Sprint subscribers with Android phones or Windows Mobile phones(i.e Touch Pro2) are going to be late to the party while everyone else will have already left. I'm glad I found that leaked 2.1 beta update. Note to Sprint: Don't post a twitter update about Android 2.1 if you can't decide when you'll be releasing to the public.
Droid_Moment ask the Motorolla Droid owners about their thoughts on Verizon delaying the 2.1 update... that went on FOREVER! Sprint has consistently been giving the same message about when the update would come, "early Q2". There has been constant Internet speculation about trying to pin down an exact date, but you can't get mad at Sprint when they don't deliever on a date they _NEVER_ said they would.
Thunderx2000... it's well established that reps in stores don't know anything. They are willing to speculate just like everyone on these forums do, but just because "they heard" or "knew someone else that heard" something doesn't mean they have any more information then they do.
Don't get me wrong... I'm disappointed too. I was really hoping that "early Q2" would mean sometime closer to April 1st, but the reality is "early Q2" (which is all Spring has ever heard could really mean any time up to early May!
(For those that don't understand quarters, Q2 would be April 1st through June 30th... defining "early" is hard to do, but most have speculated that "early", "middle", and "late" would map to the months of April, May, and June respectively. That said, those terms are fuzzy for a reason... there's a fudge factor there.... and I'm sure Sprint did that on purpose).
