I'm not sure if there have been threads speaking on this or not, but it seems to me that it might be a good possibility. I've never experienced a device that has been introduced officially from Sprint and HTC and then ignored from Sprint and HTC than the EVO3D. It seems to me that they might not have a solid release date because they are still working on getting a fix on hardware problems or battery problems.
We've seen the devices at work at events on youtube and even here on androidcentral, but they have all included evidence of hardware problems. Now, I realize that the devices were just "test" devices, but these test devices would have to be worked on to be able to make it a functional, working device. But what i'm afraid of is that they are having problems getting the device up to a saleable state.
This would explain the silence that is coming from Sprint and HTC. Now, with all the rumors and such of June 4-8th, why would they remain silent and not come out officially and say that the release date will not be June 4-8th? That is only in 3 weeks. Why would they hold an event for Motorola about the Photon4G? To distract us while they are hard at work trying to get the EVO3D stable.
Many of us are foaming out the mouth for the device and I'm right there with all of you. But I think the June 4th-8th date projection is wrong. I don't see the device being sold in stores until sometime in mid-July. And Sprint should just come out and say it now, because if not, people will begin to resent the EVO3D and move on. By the time July rolls through, people will either be moving on to the Photon release or Sprint's GS2.
So, if Sprint and HTC can just be honest and tell us why there is no substantial date for the EVO3D, we can see that there is going to be a solid end to our obsession. Most of us would appreciate that they are at work trying to get the phone in perfect working condition. We want a well working device more than we want a device to be available for sale. Nobody wants hardware updates after launch.
