Most UK online stores have stock

Ordered mine today should be with me soon.
Although once the misses finds out i'm done for!!

Yes me too. Got mine from devicewire (still have about 60 in stock if anyone wants one), but then due to a misunderstanding with Clove found out that they are also sending me one out and have already charged my card! Not sure if its coming tomorrow as well, if not I'm hoping I can cancel. I'm not even sure I can afford to go home and be killed by my missus. Still, what she doesnt know wont hurt her. Just need to sell my eee pc and HTC S730 that I bought last week now.

So Clove actually have stock now? They haven't updated their website.
Time to dig out the credit card - I'm also gonna get in trouble for this with the wife...

Yeah they have stock although not sure if its for people who have already pre-ordered. Devicewire.com do have 60 free stock (available to everyone). Luckily as I work in mobile technology I can claim that my many devices are 'from work'.

I also have two on order, one from clove and one from expansys-usa. I think the clove will get here first and then I can cancel the one from expansys. This will be the second from expansys that I have canceled.

Managed to cancle my Clove one although wish that had come first as it was cheaper.
....Just got a call from reception - theres a box waiting for me! Yipee! Only a year of waiting.. Thats my night sorted...no doubt speak to you lot later!:

Mines turned up as well, except i'm in London, and its at home!!
Misses threw a double wobble as usual, good job I not there really!!
She'll have got over it by tonight.

HTC Shift in a London Store (INKINO again!!!)
Just a quick heads-up. Inkino have their stock in and also have one HTC Shift out on demo. It is better then I expected. Surfing was very quick and they let me try it with my SIM card so that there was no 'smoke and mirrors'. There is a nice protective case in the box too. The actual box looks like a big box of chocolate so sneaking it past the missus should be a breeze....
I witnessed 5 going out of the door whilst I was there so it is safe to say that this is going to be a hugely popular machine. Any voicecall hacks yet??
For those who are not aware, Inkino are at 48 Tottenham Court Road and 9 Great Russell Street in Central London and also at www.inkino.co.uk I have no business connection with these guys apart from being an addicted customer who appreciates the old-school style of service.

Well I just pulled the trigger with Devicewire, should be with me tomorrow.
Let's see if Citylink couriers can mess this delivery up, like they do with most of my Ebuyer purchases.....

Anyone looking to buy a WING?

I've had my wing for a little less than 2 months. I found an awesome deal on an IPHONE I can't pass up. It looks brand new. Always keep it on my hip in the leather pouch. I paid almost 350 for it back in Feb. I'm just looking to get what I need for the iphone which is 275. I have a friend who can ship stuff for me cheap, so that price will include shipping. I am listing it on EBAY tonight as well, but I thought I would give someone here (who actually appreciates this phone) a chance on a great deal. I am listing it on ebay for 300. That seems to be the going rate. Since so many people here helped me after I got this phone, I figured it would be a nice gesture to help someone else here out and give them a great deal.
I do have paypal or I will accept a certified cashiers check.
PM me or email me at [email protected] with any questions.
Thanks!
Brian

Oh forgot to mention.... It has Ttrans OpenTouch 4.0 on it. I will upload pics tonight when I get a chance

I hope you read the blogs on the Iphone before you purchase the phone. In my opinion you should keep the wing & add the the program thats almost the same. there are alot of issues on the iphone

taz is right, iPhone is real buggy at the moment.
I suggest you keep the Wing and buy an iPhone seperatly. If the iPhone is really good, it'll pay back itselfs

These are for zagg.com he is talking about the invisible shield they make for the touch pro. Over at ppcgeeks.com a guy said techound1 works. I think the ones listed here are one time use only. The one from ppcgeeks has worked for a lot of people.

Poor guy
InvisibleSHIELD really suck!
www.bodyguardz.com are better... and you get 2 sets!

I agree with the above poster
I will never again order a invisbleshield and in fact I am going to cancell my order with them.
I purchased a so called invisibleshield on Saturday. A full day later another user purchased his and received his order yesterday. I then e-mailed the company to ask about the status of my order. Received no response.
I then called the company and the incompetent individual they had answering the phones could only tell me that the order is processing. I then asked when it might ship. He had no idea.
If this company is a reflection of it's customer service I would steer clear of this product an in this company as a whole.
I would just purchase one of these and be done with it. http://www.bodyguardz.com/Articles.asp?ID=132
If you purchased one from them return it.
Sorry for the rant!

Oh yeah I got 2 of those as well. Guess what. Tried to give those to somebody else to order a device and they didn't work. Yet again another shinning example of the excellent quality support this company has!

I ordered an invisibleshield last week and received a shipping confirmation email within 24 hours. Of course, now it's been 7 days and haven't received it yet. We'll see what the actual shipment date is marked on the package. I had a bodyguardz on my Tilt and it worked very well. Not sure why I switched, guess I'll see which brand I prefer.

Please let me know which one you think is better.

But bodyguardz.com don't have HTC Fuze yet, only Touch Pro

ordered my invisible shield on last friday. got mine today (thursday) fits great..kinda. evidently zagg got lazy and reused the front shield from the htc diamond. its obvious as the corners arent rounded like the touch pro, instead squarish exactly lik ethe diamond

yea those guys at Zagg are aholes. I had it on my previous two phones and i had to re-order each time because they didnt cut it right to fit the phone initlaly and they wanted me to pay for it again. Had to argue my way out of that one for some reason. I am hoping bodyguardz come out with the fuze shield soon

What is really the diff between the two? There shaped the same right? Or am I totally off?

fuze and the touch pro is the same device just different names for it

the touch has a camera up front the fuze does not. i had a invisibleshield on my herald and it worked great, the full coverage i bought. the screen protector actually gave my phone a better feel when i touched it compared to my friends with a stock protector.
i praised them alot during my time with the herald, i bought it for the fuze and it was extremely hard to get on and now that its on it looks terrible. im guessing it was easier on the herald because of the material they used. the tilt and fuze and other phones use the more common material.
ill try the guard and let yall know how it goes

well, i got 1 set touch pro, 1 set for iphone 3g lol

Yeah, when I ordered mine (By phone!) from Micro Heaven in the UK, they sent me an iPod Touch one not a Touch Pro one. I spoke to cust services and they confirmed that touch pro was on the order, just some [email protected] in the warehouse picked it wrong.
Oh well, they sent me a prepaid return bag the next day, so at least they don't expect me to return it at my own expense.

evilc:
Holy crap on a cracker!!!! i didn't receive yet, shall i afraid of the mistake??

Well this topic was switched me from Invisibleshield to Bodyguardz lol.
Any recommendations for avoiding getting fingerprints on the sticky side of the plastic?

IIRC make sure your fingers are kept wet... But, just follow the instructions that come with it and you'll be fine.

Unlocked Athena (7501) Sold

Acution Closed. Thanks everyone for your interest.
I bought it new, unlocked from Amazon.co.jp about 6 months ago.
It's an awesome machine in perfect working order. I wanted to give the people on here first grabs at it before I put it on ebay. I will give extra consideration to ROM cookers / software developers who need a second test device.
It is a X7501, and started out life with a Japanese 6.0 ROM. It now has Michy's 4.1 on it.
The keyboard does have some Japanese symbols printed on it, but the hardware beneath is the same as the English variety keyboard.
The hard black plastic on top is scuffed a little, but nothing noticeable. And there are two small dings in the back near the battery door.
The screen has had a screen protector from day-one, and the screen protector itself is still in pretty good shape.
I will throw in my LG Style-i as well for free!
Make me an offer!
Post any questions you have about it, and I will answer them.

Some Pictures
Sorry, here are some pics of the device.

too bad you are in japan it will be a lot to ship it.

Nah, I wouldn't think it would be all that much. Japan is a long way from most places, but the mail rates are reasonable - especially to the states. Anyway, the buyer won't really have to worry about that.

I bid 400

Do you still have this? Do you know roughly how much it would cost to ship to UK?

Just so people don't get unnecessarily excited, you either have to pay $5.00 or $5.21.
Option 1: $0.01 + $4.99 shipping.
Option 2: $5.21 + Free shipping with Prime/Super Saver

I ended up going the $5 route because I didn't need to get anything else at the time. It came in yesterday and I'm REALLY impressed with this case, especially at 5 bucks.

Kewl deal. I ordered the red one it was 1.23 I think total 620 with shipping. I have a nice leather case but the stand folds forword under thr device.its the fully open case. And boring black.
Thanks for thr info.

Just ordered the brown one! I was going to do the red but wasn't sure what the shade would look like. To be honest I am pick bout my red....

Lol sorry, i read your post wrong. Thats what happens when you browse these forums at 2 in the morning lol.
And I just came across a way to get a free $5 amazon giftcard that you guys could use on this case. My buddy referred me to this and it worked, I recieved the giftcard code in my email within a minute.
But anyways, to get it all you have to do is install an app called Clover on you android PHONE or iPhone and verify by sms/voice that its a phone and go through a couple steps to set up the app and once your done ( itll take like 2 mins to get everything set up) youll get your GC in your email.
Use THIS LINK to download the app since its by referral only I think, but even if it's not, it helps me out if you do because I also get $5.
I have 4 referrals left, so if you get a message saying that there are no more referrals than its because my referrals got used up.
BTW, no CC or anything required, just your email and phone #.

Be warned in advance
if you give any app or offer your phone number you will be very sorry..
I had to change my cell number from such a offer.
They sell your number to many places. and your email address as well.. YOU PAY MORE THEN 5.00 IN THE LONG Run...
If something is free its free with no restrictions or requirements .

This app actually seems legit. I think their just trying to spread the word for their new app.
But even if something like that does happen than I can just block numbers through GV .

Shipping troubles From this seller .
anyone had trouble with shipping from this company..
mine is still NOT Here said i would get it by the 28th the company is not returning my email to them.. I guess they shipped it from Mars riding on a microscopic snail ..
Learned my lesson about this so called ups innovation second package sent to me this way.. the other NEVER DID SHOW UP. Will insist conventional ups always in the future ..
Going to file a complaint with Amazon Monday..

I got mine and I'm loving it Awesome case

Ordered my case Monday/Tuesday, got it Saturday afternoon. Great looking case, great overall fit. It does slide just a hair which causes misalignment with the speakers and front camera. Not really a complaint though, more of an observation. Doesn't look cheap at all either. Great buy!
Sent from my A500 using xda premium

The Bold Standby case is no longer $0.01, but the supposed upgrade to that case, the Bold Tri-fold is now $0.01. Only in black though.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005IY9VIA/ref=ox_ya_os_product

I ordered one and got it in 4 days. About the misalignment, I found if I just tightened up on the velcro retainer then everything lines up nicely. I now have two different cases and I like this one due to the full frame hold vs tabs gripping the screen. I also like that it uses a magnet to hold the cover in place. I am very happy with this case.
