Release Date Woes - Desire HD General

After Play, Amazon and Expansys all had their release dates set at 11th October, they all got pushed back.
Play now states the release date as 19th October
Expansys also states the date 19th October
Amazon however pushed it back to 25th October, and now they're saying 15th November..! That's a full 5 weeks later than the initial date of October 11th!
I really hope the release date won't be as late as November, end of October is long enough!
Apparently it's down to Google not completing the testing on this device. You would have thought they would try to get this phone out ASAP, with the launch of Windows Phone 7 just around the corner. Not a very smart move by Google... very disappointing!
Here's hoping Amazon have got their dates wrong and 19th October is the day of release, however unlikely it's becoming to seem.

GOD DAMED!!!

Wouldn't hold your breath. They missed the last release date they gave (6th october) so it would hardly be a surprise if they missed this one too.
The latest is 36 October 2009 NOt 6th or 26th !!

well obviously there is a reason the dates are getting missed. perhaps it isn't perfected yet. Perhaps it has issues they were working out. It'll come.
Official WM6.5 ROM Upgrade for Topaz is already released unofficially. Check the Sticky at the top of the Topaz ROM Development forum.
Well at least it got it's unofficial release on the 26th

Sorry id like to believe you, but since it falls on APRIL FOOLS DAY, i reamain a bit skeptical. Sprint Buzz -1,taking me for a sucker....EPIC F A I L.Not once in my life have i ever rode the short bus, thanks for the effort...
well theres two meetings one on the 31st, and the 1st. sprint always has 2-3 meetings just incase you can't make it to the first one. very much common for sprint our last big meeting i missed the first two meeting because of school, and had to catch the third one.
Sprint CS says the Nexus One is slated for a late Spring release..Whenever that is..LoL..
the N1 will come before the evo, that's a certainty. id say nexus in june and the evo in late summer / early fall.

Isn't Spring, March April or May though....I hope we get it like April or May..They need to release the phones while they are hott and have the buzz..
Call me pessimistic, but 1 date is April 1 and says APRIL FOOLS right on the calendar. Dont surprise me, im not getting worked up till I actually see it.

any idea when this meeting is supposed to happen today?
I think since it's a marketing promotion, it will have to do more with 4G and updates to its plans, rather than new phones. But I wouldn't mind if I was wrong.
you know what would be an awesome april fools joke? if someone make a rickroll boot animation on an "OFFICIAL" 2.1 hero leak.... and it just hung on boot, infinite loop rickroll.... that would be classic
oh man bodies would be hittin the floor

HOW do you know it? Speculations!
I am waiting for the oficiella version, (modified roms here now have too many bugs) even if it takes in the autumn
But I am impressed by chef´s which has done a great job for us to test version 2.1
there's more chance of a dual booting iPad running Android 6.4
coming out than a timely update for the hero lol. September doesn't seem so bad, my contract is up for renewal then..Sent from my Hero using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
There are already many threads to the update!
We have to wait,I think all other speculations,
because HTC seems to be unsure themselves!
so, is it tomorrow then? on the 16th??

if you don't have a source for that you could be so kind to mark it as sarcasm somehow, not all newbies get it necessarily.
So whats special with that update
Custom roms are better anyway
How many of you guys will update to the official ROM...and stay using it...
Like i said Custom roms is still better

No sarcasm, I have a friend who's working at a phone house who told me. That's, by the way why I don't trust the other source who's telling everybody 16th of April (and now, like magic, end of april!).
BTW: Is it that bad that newbies wouldn't get it? People are announcing wrong dates almost everyday and my indication gets flagged somehow?
This was the only official statement from HTC regarding something new for Hero, all the rest was whishfull thinking, rumours and foolish comments:
Press Release from February 16th
Availability
The new HTC Legend will be available in Europe through Vodafone and in the direct channel beginning in April. It will roll out to other parts of the world including Asia in early Q2. HTC Desire will be broadly available to customers across major European and Asian markets in early Q2. The HTC Desire will be exclusively available in Australia through Telstra. The enhanced HTC Sense experience will also be offered as a free upgrade on the HTC Hero in Europe and Asia.

So, the dates for Legend and Desire were very precise, a date for the enhanced experience on Hero was intentionally left open ...
I got this info in a sms today from my operator Ventelo:
Information from Ventelo:
HTC will shortly come up with an updated version of the operating system on some of their mobile phones. The update must be loaded directly onto the phone, and is 100Mb. Ventelo therefore recommend that users of these mobile phones updates via wireless networks and mobile networks.

Eric Schmidt has even started his speech yet, has he?
He has started it. You can watch it live; http://www.web2summit.com/web2010/public/content/livestream
I don't think Gingerbread is going to be shown off at the Summit. When he started his talk he had a Nexus S with him and gave a preview of some chip technology which allows products to be purchased with a phone.
They've moved away from talking about Android and he said Gingerbread is going to be released in the next few weeks.
EDIT: You can read about the chip technology here; http://goo.gl/O1QPV

Hi all,
Wondering if anyone has any info on the new update that Sony has promised for our phones? I know there is 2.3 custom roms but they don't seem to be stable enough for day to day use.
Not holding my breath on Sony though

Yes, except in some parts of the world there seems to be 5 quarters in the year.
The reason I asked is because of this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiscal_year#Chart_of_various_fiscal_years
Fiscal year: Accounting year, individually chosen and internal.
Calendar year: Jan - December, fixed and standard.
I was tripped up on the whole quarter thing too. Fiscal quarters, regular quarters, quarters differ by country, etc.
However, SE released Q1 results which encompassed Jan 1 -> March 31 (as per their press statement). End of Q2 would be June.
