O2 XDA II Release Date in Sydney, Australia

Hi all,
For any Sydneysiders interested in release dates for the XDA II: Harvey Norman, David Jones and Harris Technology have all confirmed a shipment arriving on Wednesday December 10th, product instore Thursday, December 11th.
(Sorry if this information's already been posted!)
Hope this helps anyone who has so little else going on in their lives that they have to obsessively stalk small, touchscreen technologies (like me). :roll:
DMcG
Thats the same time frame as Ive beeen quoted in Melbourne.
Did they mention any prices, Ive been quoted 1599 with a 128 SD card and 1467 without.
Jon
Geez, I hope that that will be similar for Melbourne. I had a P800, and lost it in Bourke st. waiting for a tram. My insurance has been approved, so I am just waiting for Optus to get the XDAII so I can pay the difference. I have called them numerous times, and they don't have any idea when it will be out, they say maybe end of december, early Jan?!!? You can really tell they don't have a clue. They better hurry up and get it before I go to Queensland on the 23rd!! :roll: :roll:
916senna: Just for your info. , Calculator King in south Melbourne has had the imate-ppc since last Thursday. I called them up this morning as I saw it on their website.
Now the question is: how long will it take Optus to have them available?????????
Thanks GTR,
Organiser world has had the Imate for about the same time. But I think (Not sure) they are sim locked to vodaphone, whereas the O2 ones are for Optus and Telstra.
Telstra told me they will have them on the 12th and I dont see why Optus would be different, You just need to find someone in Optus who knows what there talking about.........good luck!
Cheers
Jon
PS Do you have a GTR?
Who did you speak to regarding the Telstra release? I called and the only release they are expecting is some time in January, according to their product testing update.
Also, no I dont have a GTR. I used to have a R33 gts-t, but I havent changed my nick in aages. Back then, I used to blow over GTR's, hehe.
Telstra shop in Queen St City.
Spoke to a girl named Mia.
But to be honest I'm not sure if shes got a clue. Tried to sell me a Bluespoon digital at what she called retail price. Except it was about $50 more than the published retail for the bluespoon. I specifically asked for a price on an XDA2 and she gave me the price for the XDA. (That when she checked and said the XDA2 would be in on the 12th.)
Cheers
Jon
I gave them a call, and they also said the 12th. The guy there reckons that that is when their stockist will have it, and it could be another month until they get it at their store. ?Q!!?!?!?
I called another Telstra store, and she is getting back to me (said she would call the stockist directly, then get back to me). I missed her reply, so now its a cat and mouse game of getting back to each other.....
Kinda moot, but here's an update anyway.
916senna - Harvey Norman has quoted $1557 at me, and that's with no bonus bits.
I've been on their back about the XDAII since last Wednesday. First the shipment was delayed... then it was delayed again... then they didn't know what was happening:
"Duh, it's not here. I dunno where it is."
(Yeah... that helps me).
So on Tuesday I emailed TechPacific about shipment arrival and delivery, and was told they started shipping to stores on Friday. Called back Harvey Norman (in a minor fit of rage) and spat this information at the attendant.
They: "Uuuh... it usually takes two or three days for stuff to get to our stores..."
I: *growl*
They: "...and everyone's been asking about them..."
I: *growl* "Then you should really know more about them, shouldn't you?" *growl* *teeth clench, one cracks*
They: "...hello? Are you there? I'm getting static... *pause* That's better. We can put your name down and reserve a unit for you, if you like."
I: "That-would-be-lovely-thank-you."
So now, my name is allegedly on a waiting list, to be called when the XDAII arrives.
It's now Thursday, mind you, and I've heard nothing. Soooooooo, I'm going to call David Jones and see if they've got the XDA II. If they do, I'm going to call back Harvey Norman and see what's going on. If they have them and didn't call me, then they've just lost themselves a customer. $1557 will go to someone else without hesitation, I've had it with incompetent retail staff. It's not that hard a job.
DMcG
I know now that its at Telstra stores (the one in Highpoing shopping centre anyway), they called me and said they now have it in stock for $1599!.
Just waiting for Optus stores to get it now, so that my insurance can organise for me to get one as a replacement for my P800 (paying the difference in market value of course)
*grumble*
Not more than an hour after writing my last post, Harvey Norman called me. "Your phone's here... come get it..."
*sigh* That huge spike in blood pressure for nothing.
Anyway, I'm now the ridiculously proud owner of an XDA II and a Logitech Mobile Bluetooth Headset. So far, so good...
No word on the XDA II backpack yet... they seemed quite offended when I asked after it. "What, isn't this enough?!?!"
Who is this tech pacific? Are they the Australian distributors or something?
If so, do they distribute for Optus? I have no idea, and you probably wont either. Im haaaaaaaaaaaanging for my XDAII from Optus.
TechPacific are the Australian distributors for a lot of techy-nerd products.
You can try contacting them, they were really quite civil with me - replied within the hour.
http://www.techpacholdings.com.sg/Contacts/contacts__tech_pacific_australia.html
Hope this helps you.
Would anyone like to take a guess as to what sort of pricing Optus will release the XDA II on contract? My contact expires in March 04 but they normally let me upgrade a month or so earlier...
No Idea. Id be gessing it will be similar to telstras pricing. In Melbourne, Telstra had it for $1,599, and in Queensland at Pacific Fair, they had it for $1,349!!!!! whats going on there? Anyways, I dont care about others, just Optus. I have been waiting for sooooooooo long for them to get it, so I can get it as my insurance replacement. They seem to be the only ones who dont have it yet. Apparently, Optus finished their network tests a few days before christmas (according to a guy named Owen as Pacific Tech). Optus stores, let alone insurance department however, dont even have a listing, or a price. They keep saying now early january, mid january.
This is making me insane
Notebook.com.au have the XDA2 for $1305 which seems to be the best price going around in Australia.
http://www.notebook.com.au/ProductDetails.aspx?item_id=3XDA0002
But I am still faithfully waiting for Optus (Damm you Optus!) to bring out the XDA2 on a plan. I am happy to stay on contract with Optus and hopefully they can beat that price with the contract.
Bugger Optus, I was waiting for too long. They had been saying for soooooo long they were getting it, and never do. Apparently, they are having problems testing on the network. (I was told by Pacific Tech, their distributor and tech staff at optus). I was waiting as I had put in a claim for my P800, and got market value for it for $1239. I thought I would wait for Optus to get it, pay the difference, sweet. Instead, I kicked up a fuss about how log I was waiting, and I got a cash settlement instead ) happy me!!!!
Telstra store in Port Melbourne did the O2 XDAII for me for $1230 cash, I was VERY happy. Im on Optus, no problems at all. I think what they are waiting for is to set up that Optus ZooTV to be compatible with the XDAII first, before they release it. (Told by Danielle in Insurance). This is because, I was told, the XDAII doesnt have some type of browser compatibility with Zoo TV. Once thats cleared up, they seem to think 2 weeks from last Friday, it should be available to stores to buy.
Without actually looking to closely at it that Zoo Tv looks pretty crappy. Well I plan to give it about a month (by then my contract should expire). There seems to be heaps of places that are now selling the XDA II and I-mate but I want the XDA II. The prices are continually dropping so it might even be a $100 cheaper in a month or so. Will wait for Optus to release it but if they don't I'll consider buying it outright somewhere else, then getting another phone on contract from Optus and selling the handset to try to make up the difference.
Andrew.
iMates
G'day All,
http://estore.pressd.com have the imates at $1299 and the iMate SmartPhones at $790 (in stock).
Cheers
Andy
Sorry to bang this thread again but does anyone know if Optus (Australia) is ever going to release the XDAII? I was at an Optus World Shop last week and the sales person had no idea.

Sony X1 Delayed Til End Of Octomber!!!

i dont know about other retailers, but i just got this clove.co.uk email!
this is ridiculous! i cancelling my order!
"We have been informed today, by Sony Ericsson that the first of the Sony XPERIA X1 units have been delayed until the end of October"

Wow, that sucks. Even SE reps said clove.co.uk would be the first retailer to ship unlocked units to customers as soon as tomorrow! I wonder what the issue is now, most likely either a major software malfunction or they shipped the wrong units that don't have 384MB of ram
dont expect to get it at end of October!
i getting used to SE lies!
i expect when end of October comes, new date is end of November!
Hope they still annouce the US version on the 3rd then.

Time to let Sony Ericsson hear your thoughts... start out with Xperiancers (run by a SE team including Magnus)...
I just posted this comment on their launch post: (hopefully they will reply)
Hi,
Clove has sent out e-mails that SE has delayed Xperia till the end of the month and thus it won't be available now. Is this true? if so, then it really sucks!
The set was "officialy" launched on the 30th of last month. Over 10 days later, still no final Xperia device has been seen, and no store is yet offering it on sale - i.e. having it in stock.
Furthermore, there is not a single page that details the entire specifications of Xperia in detail. The whitepaper that was recently linked to on Xperiancers was also from back in May. Does Sony Ericsson even know how to market their phones and how to detail them? Because from where i'm sitting, Johnny X seems to be the only marketing campaign at the moment and it is completely useless.
Over a month back i was determined to purchase Touch Pro... then i switched to Xperia and decided to wait. But now i am getting really impatient with Sony Ericsson and lack of any final device reviews and availability and this after 2 weeks of the "supposed" launch of Xperia.
Is there any chance that Xperia will be actually launched/availble within this week or early next? Or is it actually delayed?
I have to say that i am extremely disappointed in Sony Ericsson at this point and have pretty much lost confident in it. Even the demonstration video by Xperiancers done a few days back is on a prototype/non-final device which is what the demonstrator continuously states at the start and end of the demonstration.. Maybe i should just go for some other smartphone?
Hopefully you'll have enough decency to supply us with an insight on when actually will Xperia be available. I don't care about where it will be available - may it be UK or on a remote island - but just tell us WHEN WILL XPERIA BE ACTUALLY AVAILABLE?!?!?!?!?
Best Regards.
Salman Khalid.

y even bother with that site! they LIE just like SE!
"X1 is shipped on 9/30/2008 from factory as scheduled!". (not exact quote, but something like that).
Actually it probably has shipped but my guess is that it has gone to the carriers (Voda, O2 - maybe Orange - lol!). The carriers do not bring it out straight away as they are busy branding the phones with their sh*t - Orange and Voda are well known for that (Orange will even drop a phone if it can't put its software on to it).
O2 as far as I know don't brand it too heavily - hence why they may well be the first carrier out with it on Monday ( I have already seen adverts in Oxford Street). The carriers take priority and then the online outlets get their slice later....

You know, i think you are right... i have seen O2 claims that it'll be launching Xperia early next week and Vodafone is slated to release it by the 17th.
So maybe, it is stores such as Clove or Expansys that are delayed.

now is end of october,
and then it will be november!
i really getting tired of SE LIES!
Me too, it doesn´t make any sens to wait for this for phone I will skip it, the only thng that SE can s to delay this this phone every week, time to wait for another phone
I still believe the swedish release date will be tomorrow. I'll be informed tomorrow morning IF it has been released and maybe I can try it out for a couple of minutes.

As far as i know, Expansys, Clove and other such sites have been delaying. But those launching against a network - like Vodafone or O2 - they are staying steady on their launch date.
Update:
Just got this from Clove - after i sent 'em an e-mail inquiring about the availability for Xperia. I also sent one to Expansys and will post their response too when they send it:
"Hi Salman, we have received news today that the release of the X1 has now been delayed until the end of this month. However, we have been assured that we will be among those receiving the first models once it is released. If you would like to place a backorder now you will be in the priority queue for a device. However, we will not charge your card for the order until the machines are in stock and ready to be shipped."
Now this here is a big concern for me... as i was looking forward to purchase Xperia within next week. Now it seems that it won't be available.
I would have probably waited longer, but phones don't come to Pakistan that quick after they are available, and my window for purchasing was via my brother who is travelling to UAE next week. Now i'm back to the same question; "To wait or not to wait? Xperia or some other?"
Update 2: But see, this guy gives me hope...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=434822
thankfully my existing contract doesnt run out till march. Im still gettin an X1 as soon as they come out, ill just pay my contract off
Xperia is definitely launched in Sweden... When will it be available at clove or expansys? i don't know, but i'm certain that networks will be launching as planned.
Sounds as if it was an extremely limited stock that was released to Sweden though. To be honest I think they were still making some last minute changes in the face of known deficiencies - for instance on one recent video the reviewer said it came with the SPB Shell Panel, whereas MR's review unit did not have this.
Spb panel must be downloaded from SE`s website. (It is free.) It is not pre-installed on the device.
Thats what I thought, but not according to the video where he says it was pre-installed... Who the heck really knows, waaay too much conflicting information around this phone (theres a lesson in there for you SE).

Orange exclusive in the UK

Orange can sell the HD with an exclusive deal in the UK starting first week of November untill years end......
http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/10/27/orange-helps-itself-to-british-exclusive-on-touch-hd/
Worst network and it's exclusive for 3 months. So I'll have to wait for another 3 months I so want to upgrade but no good phone and the phone I want is on the wrong network.
HTC you have let me down

...but not me
250mb browsing not cool. But it is only exclusive till the end of the year as it would be stupid for HTC to just keep it on Orange.
Orange would have to pay me to stay with them. Even here in the well-populated south east of England their network is the worst I've ever used. There's no way I'll get another phone with them so the HD will either come to me sim-free from someone like Expansys or I'll wait until the new year until I can get it from O2, who have the best tariff deals at the moment and whose network was excellent when I used my Exec.
Orange - if you're reading this, SORT IT OUT.
O2 might not release this phone on their networks, it wouldnt be the first time they havent released HTC phones, they have no reason to release every Phone HTC make, especially if its going to directly compete with something they are already selling, id hedge my bets by renewing my contract, getting the most expencive phone on the market and then sell it, then buy the Touch HD for full price else where.
How will this affect Sweden? Will we have to wait extra for the phone, or will it be released as normal?
I would have a bet that O2 won't be getting the HD ever, they have already listed the diamond and pro in their new magazine with no sign from the HD, too much direct comp for the iphone. As for Orange i have heard that they plan a few substantial changes in the way they operate within the coming months?
Dont know what that means but since i'm with them it'll def be interesting. I have been waiting for the touch pro for ages and it hasn't materialised on orange yet, so i think we deserve the HD!
I'm with orange because I have an old outdated data package which is well worth the money for me, i have be getting fed up waiting for orange to get the experia or the touch pro, so it makes a nice change for orange to ge this first.
Can you pre order with orange?
bollocks! getting fed u now, g1 t-mobile, hd orange, might just end up with an omnia after all **** marketing [email protected]
This is fecking annoying. I'm due an upgrade on both O2 and Vodafone and neither of them are doing this or anything that's a worthy sucessor to my N95. I suppose I'll just have to wait until the new year and hope that one or the other (preferably Vodafone) get this in.

Counting Down 14 days~

Hey guys, I am still waiting for my DHD to be shipped from Expansys... Although I know its more expensive than other places... I wonder are all of the websites distributing these DHD on the 11th October or some maybe earlier? Please speed up time SOMEONE!!! Waiting is a torture~
Why order from Expansys, Play.com and Amazon have it cheaper both for the 11th release date. Nobody really knows when they will be dispatched, usually just before release date.

Not everyone is from UK...
Play doesn't sell electronics overseas and from Amazon.co.uk, the price with the postage stays almost the same price from Expansys.
Also in Expansys it's a lot easier to take the VAT off the price...

Yea, that's the reason why I got it from Expansys... Damn, I hope HTC will release the goodies earlier... I wonder if it's tomorrow how would the community react to this??
try clove, its will be available from oc6, 399p (w/o tax)
I am truly exited about getting this phone. I got my Hero last August and it's never been out of my hand. I'm due an Upgrade next month so hopefully Orange will have released it by then. They always seem to be slower than the rest on release date. I really hope the phone is all that it should be. Hopefully HTC will send some out for review purposes this week to tide us over until release date.
Sent from my HTC Hero
Yeah man I hope for some reviews too, all this waiting with nothing new to see is painful!
mine is coming 9th of october..
Ordered it at a local shop here in the Netherlands for 520 Euro
I can't wait
Dammit you guys, just looking at this thread has got me thinking of the final countdown song lol I can't get it out my head now!!!
Still though, can't wait to get this phone in my hand!
I have order my from handtec.co.uk
Sent from my Milestone XT720 using XDA App
Mine's been preordered as well, from superetrader. Sent them an email asking about when they are expecting stock to arrive, no response as of now. Hmmm..
LOL Damn... Now the "Final Countdown" song is contagious and its playing in my mind non-stop... and is it true that 6th of Oct is available? Damn... I wonder if I can cancel my preorder?? What if I cancelled and later they tell me its gona delay? Then I will be done... Haha... So lets just wait...
REMINDER: Counting down 13 days~
I'm in the UK not sure which website is most reliable for guarantee delievery as advertised. The last thing I want to do is but a pre-order thru, get charged and delivery is not completed as advertised!
The only reason wanting to do this so that I can get it as soon as it is launched rather then wait for updgrade with t-mobile which is on the 18th Oct. Any suggestions and also do websites charge on dispatch or charge as soon as you pre-order?

Was holding off with my order but have just ordered through clove.co.uk so hopefully will have my hands on this badboy next week!
Their website states the 11th Oct which is still better then Nov.
Yer im confused as to what to follow .... maybe 6th is the date but they are saying 11th just in case there is a lil delay
What difference does it make 6th or 11th life goes on, enjoy what you have and make a difference to someone.

I hope you do get it asap. But when I ordered the HTC HD2 from superetrader they advertised as in stock & immediate shipping 2 days before the actual release date. So I rang them & they said yep we have 3 in now for immediate shipping so I ordered & waited the next day & the next, so I rang them & they said that they hadn't had chance to pack it & post it. Another day went by & nothing, so i rang & same excuse.
3 days later when everyone else was shipping did I get mine.
I won't be using them again.
Hope u have no problems with them, I just don't believe a word they say.
Ahhhh shoot...!

SuperEtrader now quote an 11th October release date.
Shame, but I still keep finding new fun things to do with my HTC Desire, so maybe a little longer before I send it off to a new owner isn't too bad...
...
Nope, not good enough. I wish my new phone would f**king hurry up and get here!
clove in the only one that set it to oc 6 ? i hope so...
I'm fine with 11. That would be next week.
I went into Carphone Warehouse and Phones4U in Aberdeen today and neither had a clue when it would be in stock. One salesman suggested the end of November.
I accept there will be a delay between online and retail but even that seems a bit much.
I'm pinning my hopes on orange as I'm due for an upgrade now-ish. Hopefully they'll get their collective arse in gear and stock the HD before too long. However I feel I'm going to be waiting longer than I want to

Got told by Orange that its gonna be November time
Gutted as my upgrade is due now, so my beloved Hero will have to hold on a little longer
I really hope Orange get this phone. I'm due my upgrade in 6 weeks. I'm not that confident and I don't really want to switch networks and lose all my loyalty perks. Fingers and toes crossed.

My HERO is serving well with Elelinux V1.9 but it is time upgrade. The phone is starting to age very rapidly and I think it's slowly dying I can wait until november but I hope it doesn't slip.
