Anyone that has successfully purchased a TyTN and is using it in the US I would greatly appreciate some info on where to do so.
Thanks a lot.
I'm a currently an HTC Wizard use, and love it. I really want the video phone capability, and the increased speed for games and such. Looking forward to M$ Live Anywhere!
You're going to have to wait for video calling in the US... Cingular has not yet activated the feature (but are allegedly going to do so sometime in Q4 this year).
buy at http://www.smart-mobile-gadgets.com/ or http://www.dweiniger.com/ (note that I am not affiliated with either one)
or you can always go to trusty old ebay!
Thanks
Thank you very much for the info... And I'm aware of the Video Calling issuie here in the states. I'd like to have it early.... and have the faster phone... the overclocked Wizard just isnt cutting it...
730 isnt a bad price.... Thanks for the links...
Let me know when you buy it, I will follow.
Thankx!
i got mine from Phonesource-usa.com
i ordered and arrived the next day i am in canada but they are based out of the U.S las vegas i belive.
awsome service too always quick to reply.
oh and probably one of the best price's out there at the moment.
I really like the link from the last post. Thank you very much.
I will post here when I end up buying mine!
I bought 2 of them from http://www.PhoneSource-USA.com and I agree the service was awsome. I had mine delivered the next day and my brothers would of been delivered the next day if he didn't live out in the woods where they don't accept Saturday delivery.
Most places tried to tell me they had them instock or where recieving theres the next day but didn't. Give this guy a try if you haven't already purchased it.
we have the TyTN on special 719.99.. lowest price
full USA warranty for our customers ( Thats mean your tytn will be serviced in USA office).. and free USA CHARGER

I just purchased mine from GSM Phone Source (www.gsmphonesource.com). They are great to deal with and super fast service.
Hi,
I'm travelling from the UK to Las Vegas next week and was wondering were is the best and cheapest place to buy HTC products.
Any recommendations would be great.
Thanks

order online and get delivered to hotel. Try frys which is at the Luxor end of the strip but I don't think they've got much HTC stuff.
Try PhoneSource USA (www.phonesource-usa.com)
They have a shop at 2410 N Decatur in Las Vegas.
I don't know what their prices are like at the moment, but they were pretty good in October when I was there. Unfortunately, they had run out of Kaisers so I missed out.
Hope this helps
damn that exchange rate...
if you do hit up phonesource's store front, it's a good $20 cab ride roundtrip from the strip, but you'll get a fabulous view of how different the Las Vegas valley is away from the megaresorts/hotels. Start a stripmall picture collection!
Now that the Sim unlocking tool is out getting a AT&T Tilt and then unlocking it is the cheapest way to go. Get it delivered to the Hotel, even overnight:

Please note that this is for the locked and branded phone. Nothing will keep you from changing that though...

Hi,
Next week I will be at Bangkok Airport for a few hours.
Will I have a chance to buy an Evo.
Can you advice me a shop near to airport which I can buy HTC devices and accessories?
Thanks in advance...
The pre order date for the Evo hasn't even been announced yet. I doubt you'll be able to order it in advance, let alone actually buy one by then.
does bangkok even have a cdma/wimax network? i highly doubt they will even be stocked at htc retailers outside of the us lol
Has anyone here received their replacement phone from any of the Microsoft stores or are we not going to get ours before the 24th? Is that "ordered by the 14th" deal for only online orders?
My brother and I got a phone call from the Oak Brook, IL store yesterday and we both went to get our new units. Only 8GB models are stocked, but at least they are fully functioning. This particular store got 50 devices in the shipment, and with about 20 or so reserved for exchanges there are still plenty for customers. I would imagine, weather permitting, that the other Microsoft Stores will be stocked this week.
Thats good to know . . . I live here in CA and will let people know if my store gives me a call either today or sometime this week . . .
I am waiting for an exchange as well. My store in San Diego has not gotten them yet.
Got one - Denver
Got the call from Denver store, When I went there mine was the last one left.
They got the 8GB model only, Dell was supposed to send a BT earphone with it but didn't, they said they will call back.
Anyway happy to have the VP again..
Yeah I just got a call from the store here in Scottsdale that they have 30 in stock and she told me to get there quick because they'll sell out quickly.
I won't be picking one up from them though since my 16gb has already shipped

I actually got my call from Oakbrook today while I was at the Disney Store haha. So we went to the store and my gf gave me an early x-mas gift
BTW, how much did you pay for it? Because when they first rang it up, it rung for 499.99, but then we told them it was supposed to be 449 and they gave us back the extra $50. 8GB model
Yea . . . they changed the price now . . . and still no call for me yet . . . only 2 more days left before I get really angry!!!

I paid 449, he paid the upgrade price, which I think was 199. It was a direct exchange though, no extra money involved.
Picked one up last night from the Park Meadows Microsoft Store here in Colorado and they told me they had a healthy amount of them in stock (8GB only). Lady who checked me out knocked off $100 with a coupon she had Can't wait to open it up tonight.
They have to have them in by tomorrow . . . THEY HAVE TOO!!! For the CA stores . . .
I not gotten a call from the San Diego store yet so not sure if they got them or not but I was told that I would be getting a call when they came in. Of course at this point I do not think I would have wanted to venture to the mall anyway to get it.
Any Microsoft Stores in Either Buffalo or Detroit??
Hi Guys
I'm located in Toronto, Canada and am trying to get the DVP, but not having an luck as Dell USA will not ship to an Canadian address. Does anyone know of a Microsoft store in either the Detroit or Buffalo area?? Looking to get the device ASAP...
Thank you
Dude, there are only seven Microsoft stores in the entire country. Here's the list: https://store.microsoft.com/Locations
This is so stupid . . . no calls from the ca store and its past the 24th . . . I want something else than a stupid headset . . . like a price drop or give me the htc hd7 for free . . . this is getting really tired some.

Played with the phones yesterday at p4u in oxford street (bond street), however today the store doesnt have any demo units. says they will get demo units soon.
Gonna have a look around later......i read somewhere late yesterday that more P4U stores would have units in today (21st), will be in MK later for some physio, so will try and locate a store there, then back home to Northampton, so i will have a pop in the store here see if i can get lucky.

I don't know about stores in the rest of the uk but a few phones 4 us in london and three stores are expecting demo units next week between the 26th-1st
So, apart from someone elsewhere saying they tried one out in a Birmingham store, and some stores saying they are getting them soon, do we have any definite sightings yet?
I would like to try and populate the OP with store locations so people can go and try for themselves.

Yes there is definate sightings in london. The phones 4 u store in bond street that did the launch now have a display model however, you can't check out the camera/video or front camera or music in headphones because of the way they secured the phone.
The three store also down bond street a bit further up (opposite selfriges) had a clean demo yesterday i.e it wasn't bolted to anything so i got to test out camera/video, front camera/video, audio, phone calls in the shop and got to walk around in the shop with the phone to test out the camera on different subjects. I don't know if they would have bolted the phone down now but I am glad I went in search again yesterday as i finally got to play with it without any restrictions as such (apart from obviously not being allowed to go out the shop with it)
I thought HTC distributed demo units for reviewers,but 4 days later still no reviews apart 1 or 2 short amateur videos.
Good thread idea! I'm going to go searching Oxford Street sometime next week, I take it it's only the Bond Street stores?
Definitely not in P4U in Manchester Market Street. Person said check in first two weeks of march but not to quote her on that
Re: Demo units.....updated 23/2/13
Dont worry there will be lots of vids from MWC shortly

Thanks Phil, OP updated, was it you in another thread that said you had a play in a Birmingham store?
It has been advised by the HTC staff that go around demoing the phones to shops that the demo units are running atleast 2 month old software and is not retail software.

yer i mentioned it on the uk pre order thread
So, any more of you lucky folk in the UK found somewhere to play with the One?
hello Guys I have a update for this thread.
Three store islington angel - London has a demo unit however the guy is such a pr**k and won't let anyone play with it. He claims it is his personal phone when I know it isn't because I saw him in the morning but because I had to go somewhere i said to him i will come back after he said ok. When I went back he was on lucnh and I asked the staff they said I would have to wait for him to come back as he was the only one with the demo and demoing it to customers then when he came hes telling me its his personal phone.
I thought you know what let me leave it because the staff in the three store in islington angel are FOS anyway, no wonder when I walk past it is always empty and there is like 6 or so staff members sitting in there twiddling their thumbs or talking aboslute rubbish amongst themselves on top of that they are absolutely clueless about phones but that's another matter.
Also three store in Kilburn - London also has a demo unit thankfully they let you play with it. So far all the three stores that have the demo units they are not bolted down to anything, the staff members have it around their necks.
Thanks chief, OP updated.:good:
I was in my local 3 store (AGAIN) yesterday looking for a unit to play with, the young lad who approached me as i walked in store asked if i was after anything, i said i wanted a One to play with, he told me that it was only announced a couple of days ago......i told him i already had it on pre order since last Tuesday, he sort of looked as if i was lying, then said they wouldn't have any for a while because it's not out yet, i pointed out the Xperia Z that they have had for the last few weeks wasn't out either and he just shrugged his shoulders, i then pointed at the big A frame in the store front that showed a big pre order poster with the One on it.....again he just shrugged.......kids eh?
haha yea, i swear it never ceases to amaze me how little the people who work in these retail outlets (not just phones) know about their products.
usually i just nod and agree when i realise that i know more than they do lol

Hopefully next week we should be able to play around with the phone in at least a couple of stores without a trip to london or birmingham.
