Told my husband about the further delay. His response? "You could cancel your preorder and I'll get the iPhone 4s and you can have your 3d back."
The Evolte was to be my Mothers Day present.
Oh well, got Diablo III to occupy the rest of my lift until this phone arrives anyway ;-)
Well that's mean. Also why would he just go out and buy a phone that is the cause of all this drama?

7AM Update – HTC EVO 4G LTE Launch Delay
3 Votes
Morning, all! After some MUCH needed sleep, and catching up on some emails, I just wanted to give a quick update before I head into the office to see what the day will bring.
I CAN confirm that an email with out to the 3rd Party distro with the 5/23 date.
Since Best-Buy is saying ‘whoops’ for sending the email, I’m not sure if they got smacked for releasing the date first, or if someone just messed up.
I do believe I’ll be able to get a copy of the actual email today to post.
There is a 2PM Conference bridge today about the launch.. but we’ve had these daily at some point each day, so don’t get too excited. Yesterday’s was simply boring stuff we all already knew. Generally these are not the venue for breaking news.
Also, thanks to everyone that’s been reading the blog over the past couple of days, I’ve been able to get in touch with someone who actually works for the warehouse in Louisville yesterday! It took me a while to figure out how to verify who they were, but finally I was able to do so. According to them, we have some stock there that is in the foreign trade zone (aka customs) and some that is not. Apparently some of the earlier shipments have been in the racks for a while(some are always held back for replacements, demos, store models, training phones,etc…). They have indeed picked and packed both sections for the ones that are being shipped out, and last night they were prepping for ‘rollout’. I don’t have any more information than that… but I’m determined to find some out today
Time for the morning commute. Hopefully I’ll be able to confirm something more soon. In the meantime, if you’re new to ISN, I’ve posted a TON of stuff over the past few years you might find interesting, so check it out – and let me know what else you’d like to see. From training docs, to processes, to launch decks…. I am generally so accustomed to seeing it all so much that I only post stuff that I think would be REALLY interesting to others.. but if there’s other stuff you’re curious about, please speak up!

But could it even be possible that they shipped and noone has reported it?
Not gonna lie, I recently found out that I might be in Europe for 3 years so I was considering getting a Photon or EVO Design all this morning since they are world phones.
BUT I got to thinking that I'm not wasting an upgrade on a less superior phone. I am still getting the new EVO and if I do move overseas it will be my wifi/Google Talk phone, and ill get a cheap GSM Android phone for work related calls.
Should've been sent from my HTC EVO 4G LTE using Android Central Forums.
What confuses me is that the HTC One S is still being sold and there are no issues. Think maybe it's because Tmo is the only carrier the iPhone isn't on? No issues with that phone or is it just the phones that are destined to run circles around the iPhone5. Why just block 2 of the 3 phones that come with the included software. What about all the Sensations that got the ICS update on Wednesday? No one has said anything to them. I think Apple is concerned because of the fact that the EVO and OneX will indeed out sell the 4s and the 5 once that is released.

I am no apple fan boy and I love android. But let's be real. This phone will not outsell the iphone5. Apple fans are just too dedicated for that to happen.
I wish we would stop comparing every phone that's released to the iphone line. It has been said for every flagship phone to be released that it will be the iphone killer....well I'm still waiting to see that happen. Again, dont get me wrong. I am android all the way.
