I don't understand how a map of ground delivery times is relevant? I thought all phones were being sent overnight?

I'm SO over this BS of not knowing not getting updates. Its put a stain on this phone before i even have it in my hands. I went through hell to get my first EVO so I pre ordered this one and sprint cannot just tell me when i will get the phone! They sure did tell me about the change in billing me for my hotspot. or be a little late on my bill and I get texts voice mails but have a shipping snafu when they have my money and I get no info... I am in the retail industry and I have never seen such a poorly handled situation. you should always treat a 13 year customer like **** cause there is no other place i can get phone service. Done Venting !

Jesus are you serious?! They just let us know preorders were ready to ship 2 days ago!!! You guys are worse than teenage girls waiting on Justin Beiber.

I agree with boatman. I've also always found it sickening how the little guy is always held accountable for every little thing, but companies can constantly screw up and or not care and nothing happens to them.

The little guy on the other hand, if he forgets to pay the bill one day late or has a little oversight on something else, oh man is he gonna pay. Interest rates will skyrocket, credit score will get hit hard, late fees, etc. Yet the big rich companies get a constant free pass.

It's an overall trend that has angered me more and more over the past few years.

Few users on XDA are reporting a UPS notice for a Thursday deliver. I wish they just said "On the 24th."

I just looked at the pre-order thread there and there is supposedly a guy with an e-mail from Sprint saying to come to his Sprint store to pick up his pre-order at like 6pm Wednesday.

got tracking info by using "track by reference" on ups and putting in my sprint account number. all it says is shipping label created, 3 lbs, 2nd day air. label created on 5/22/12.

I just went to UPS track by reference as the user before me said and put my Sprint account number as reference, my zip code and choose USA as shipping country and that above came up. I'm not sure if I should be happy as it says 2 day air? Shouldn't it be next day? I won't be getting it til Friday by that fact?

My Sprint.com/myorder shows,

"Thank you for pre-ordering the EVO 4G LTE. We will do our best to get it to you by Thursday, May 24. You will receive a shipping confirmation email with tracking number the moment your new phone ships. We apologize but we cannot support any further cancel requests at this time as our warehouse is processing orders. However, you may refuse shipment or call to request a return kit once you receive shipment."

And my Sprint.com order info under See My Bill > See My Order History shows

Order in Progress

Also my Sprint account still shows a negative balance of -$211.99 which is the cost of the phone plus my states sales tax. Man is Sprint backwards! I also never received the "delayed" email many others that preordered from Sprint had gotten saying the phone was delayed! The only email I have from Sprint is my order purchase receipt and THAT IS IT! So if I wasn't vigilant checking online I would be left to think the phone was lost or stolen! Sprint has still yet to send me a text message, call or email that I would not be getting my phone "on or before Friday May 18th" and then it was "on or before Thursday, May 24th" only to now have it become "by Thursday, May 24" with the "on or before" language removed?

And don't tell me they didn't know till days before the launch that the phone might be delayed as many sites reported they knew they were going to have issues but tried to squeak through anyway! Remember "Risk with Mitigation!" on the HTC EVO 4G LTE paperwork on s4gru.com? Sprint has been pissing off their loyal customers for NO REASON WHATSOEVER!?

Where is the SprintInsider and why has he been so quiet since yesterday? He would have given himself away today by saying he wasn't able to make the conference call so something has to be up as everyone would say hey it's Bill (him)? Something isn't right or the guy at insidesprintnow.wordpress.com is Dan Hesse himself! There is no way Sprint wouldn’t track him down and hang him, not literally but after the lawyers he may have wished they did. This site and Twitter account have now been cited in many news stories and even in the official Sprint forums so either they already know who he is and approve of having an under the table news source to get info out to customers without the pressure of getting things wrong in the mainstream press?

But to me it makes no sense as I would have more appreciation for Sprint if they supported an official blog, maybe even this one? Wouldn’t it be cool if Sprint had this blogger on their official site? Maybe even Dan Hesse himself could post from time to time? I like Hesse and I thought his move to buy MetroPCS made sense as Sprint could have launched MetroPCS’ own LTE network as their own and we could have been using LTE on our soon to be new EVO LTEs in the old MetroPCS markets! Man think how cool that would have been as Sprint could have hooked their backhaul onto MetroPCS superior network technology and they would have sped up the LTE launch by a year plus! Hesse is the man and Sprint needs to keep him around and learn a thing or two!

5th :-\

Some arrogant, power-hungry mod at the XDA forums just closed the 340 page pre-order thread over there cause he got his little feelings hurt.

Now that's pathetic.

I was too lazy to post proof but thanks for backing me up.

I hope they're just sending these out and they just show up today without any tracking info available.

At this point I've pretty much lost hope for any communication and just hope that one day I will go home and have a package waiting on my doorstep...I know today I'll have at least one from Seidio but maybe something from Sprint too...If not I can hold the new Seidio Active case and pretend.

Glad other people are getting their tracking info. Mine is still at the same stage
I'm guessing it's getting shipped tonight,

If it makes you feel better, I can't pull up anything on UPS regarding a possible package.

I agree as well. There's been too many constant disappointments and delays. I'm usually an optimistic person against the odds, but I can only take so much. He can say there will be info later on today or whatever, but I won't believe anything anymore until I actually have the damn phone in my hand as I get into my car in the Best Buy parking lot.
