Future Shop won’t be getting the HTC Touch Pro when promised

I’m sorry, my fellow Canadians - remember when I told you that Future Shop would be selling the HTC Touch Pro for $239.99? And I swooned over the free $50 gift certificate? Yeah…

Due to vendor’s shipping delay, store will not have Telus HTC Touch Pro on time. To substitute it, please offer following sku to the customers on a new 3 year voice & data plan. 10108904 Telus HTC Touch Diamond $99.99 save $100.

Wait - see that? Light at the end of the tunnel! The HTC Touch Diamond will be going for $99.99! Alright, Telus, you’ve appeased us… for now.

Sprint’s HTC Touch Pro: delayed

Are you anxiously awaiting October 19th to get your hands on the HTC Touch Pro from Sprint? Eep. Sorry to say, it looks like it’s been delayed. Sprint’s reporting that the device will be late with no real info aside from “by early November.”

Sprint expects to slightly delay launch of the Touch Pro by HTC to ensure we have adequate inventory in all channels before making the device commercially available. Customers can expect the device to become available in select national retailers by the end of the month and then in all Sprint sales channels including online at www.sprint.com and Sprint Stores by early November.

Boo, Sprint. Boo!
