Shipping notification....Who's first?

If Sprint ships phones to stores for sales to walk up customers and leaves pre-orders holding back order slips, there are going to be some irate customers.

That kind of bad faith business dealings could be enough to push me over to the competition.

IF that is the case, then Sprint deserves whatever customer fallout occurs. Personally, I don't think any company this size could be that stupid, but we'll see.
 
Some of you guys are really ridiculous.

The release for the phone is Friday, May 18th. Let's forget the fact that today is TUESDAY... but by pre-ordering, you aren't guaranteed that you'll get your phone BEFORE the 18th. I mean cheese and rice - on the 7th the release date of the phone wasn't even announced yet!! By pre-ordering you just guaranteed yourself a phone when it is released!

I'm just as excited as everyone else to get this phone, and if I don't get it by EOD Friday, I'll be pissed -- but like I said, today is TUESDAY.

Take a step back everyone. It's a phone. You'll get it. And guess what, if you don't... YOU WILL LIVE.

I understand what you are saying but some will and others won't. It is just a phone and my OG EVO works just fine. I can still make calls, surf the net, read emails, play music and games, etc. I'm sure most of you can do the same.

Don't sweat the small stuff.

The only recourse is to leave Sprint.

As much as it may tick me off that people may get them in stores before I would, I am not going to leave and pay tons of extra money to another carrier just to win a moral victory.

Who said anything about leaving Sprint over something as silly as this?

I wouldn't...but I am sure there are many who might.
 
Everybody should keep cool.. Sprint is pretty good about shutting down pre-sales when they are sold out. The pre-sale remains active, even now. There will be plenty of EVO4GLTEs for everybody who pre-ordered. These phones ship so fast, when they actually ship that you have them in your hands sometimes before the website is even updated. I have ordered on a Sunday, and had the phone in my hand on Monday and the status never even updated til Tuesday.... Sprint and UPS have this logistics thing down, now if they systems could just get updated as fast as the phones get delivered, there would be a lot less stress in the HTC EVO 4G LTE World

You as SO RIGHT about this...I looked up my Sprint account, and found orders going back YEARS that had never been updated with shipping information!

Point us to where you got the media link.

I think you can get it from AT&T.

As for the phone itself. I don't really care if I get it tomorrow or next week but since I'm going out of town tomorrow, I'd just like to know when it's coming. I guess I'll just leave a note on the door to have them give it to my neighbor. I just don't want it shipped back before I get hom next week and I have to start all over again.

Just received my email from UPS My Choice! Delivered tomorrow. Its already in Houston, arrived 11:37am.

Edit: Now I'm not sure, if its another airave replacement. It says its weighs 5lbs, which is what the replacement airave package I received yesterday weighed. Weird.
 
I pre-ordered mine on 05/08 and still getting a message that "they'll try to get it in my hands before others get a look on 5/18". No email. UPS isnt bringing up anything about a label being created. I'm with most of you. I hope it just shows up with no rhyme or reason on my doorstep.

The shipping weight on my UPS package for the EVO says 3 pounds.
 
Amazon with a 30% Mothers day discount...Ended up being $76 I think with expedited shipping which was cheaper than regular shipping...But the Mothers day discount is over, not sure where you can get it cheaper...AT&T does have it though.
