got from handtec, and it has 2 manuals, one in english, and one in another language, like thai or something. the box is all english on the front and back. what does this indicate about the unit?
p.s. handtec is awesomw, shipped device right away and got it in like 20 hours in texas. fully sealed and brand new.

Shift availability

Does anyone know where you can buy the Shift for immediate delivery in the UK or do you have the details of any overseas supplier that is reliable. I have the money to purchase one but cannot find a supplier at the moment.
I got mine from chicago, they import from europe. Onthegosolutions i called them to verify stock, bought online, called again to verify i would recieve the next day and wala, it was in my hands. They were very helpful.

your in uk (from our view, i know not yours) your in europe and will contact usa store that imports from europe so you can export it back to europe.

Has anyone already got a German Shift (QWERTZ keyboard) and if so how and where did you get it?
Amazon.de just mailed that "the item is very hard do get. Do you want to cancel your order?"

Hi Einsiedler,
I ordered with Amazon on 2nd December now the site says availability 9. April and in my account the date has been 8. April for weeks now.
I guess we have to wait a little longer. Today there was an offer on Ebay without specifications of the keyboard layout. I asked for it and a little bit later the offer was taken off by Ebay I guess.
And I got an email by Ebay in which they said that a doubtful email was sent to me by the the person I asked for the keyboard specifications.
We must swallow the truth that there ain't any Shifts around in Germany. Geteiltes Leid ist halbes Leid.

Und ich teile
same for me: No qwertz-Shift. Also no pictures yet. Mid April?
My Amazon order has NO date at moment.
By now HTC is well-known for its strange (i.e. non-existent) information policy. But their distributors seem to kid their clients in the same way. My amazon-order already has been postponed a few times after giving me fix dates for delivery. Today I got the same mail as EinSiedler telling me that at the moment they don't know nothing about a forthcoming delivery. At the same time however Amazon changed the availability status of the Shift from "bestellbar" (order now) to "lieferbar ab dem 9. April" (available 9th of april). What is the name of the game they're playing with us?
amazon.de will deliver mine on the 11th of April.
Maybe I order the normal English version and use tipp-ex on the keyboard.....
Received the same Email this morning - one day after postponing the delivery date to infinity. Quite chaotic.
But hopefully they are right - this time.
BTW: I assume it's the quertz-version. Anyway: Better we learn blind-typing instead of messing around with Tipp-ex.
Date shifting
Hi,
no, I don't think that it is Amazon. I guess it is the information policy of HTC, but it is another question how the distributors handle their cluelessness. Worst of all is Expansys. For months they have been giving out exact dates olny to put them back when the time arrives.
At the moment is says: Verfügbarkeit (availability): ca. 1 Tag. Just for the fun of it have a look what will happen today or tomorrow. What they do is downright disgusting.
I ordered the Shift with Amazon on 2nd December 2007. For weeks now the date in my account is 8th of April. On their site it is 9th of April, supposing that I am lucky I might get it on 11th of April.

Shifting availability
Hi,
from Amazon I just got this email:
Wir liefern vorbestellte Artikel so aus, dass Sie sie am
09.04.2008 in Empfang nehmen sollten. Wobei wir die übliche
Transportzeit hier miteinkalkulieren und Ihre Sendung entsprechend
rechtzeitig losschicken.
So, if lucky I'll get it on the 9th next month, but who can trust the month of April funniest of all the months starting with the first.

For the Krauts here in the forum:
Shift qwertz ist available from Monday. Some dealers report they got a tracking number from DHL today, so Monday it should be in stock!
Hi,
I live in Australia and noticed on expansys AU that the Shift is on there twice, one as HTC Shift http://www.expansys.com.au/p.aspx?i=157607 and the other as HTC Shift X9500 http://www.expansys.com.au/p.aspx?i=165677
All of the specs seem the same except the X9500 has a 40GB hard drive instead of a 30GB and the X9500 is heaps cheaper........
The other thing is Hong Kong sells the X9500 $650 cheaper than the Australian HTC Shift but the language is (Traditional Chinese), what does this mean...... is the operating system chinese only or is the keyboard and everything Chinese??
Does anyone know what is going on here???
Thanks

First link is not good, remove the "and" from the link and it's working again
As I can see only the HD is different yes.
I think the Chinese version has another keyboard layout. Maybe also the WM is Chinese and maybe also Vista, but can't tell you this..

Sorry I fixed the first link it had "and" stuck at the end of the address.....
OK, I have found the X9500 in English so the Chinese is no problem now, The HTC Shift in Australia is$2194.95AU and the HTC Shift X9500 in Hong kong with 10GB more is $1511.13AU Thats $683.00 AU difference....... Thats a massive difference for the same device and if you pay less, you get a bigger harddrive...... Something is really strange here.
For that massive saving I am willing to send it back to Hong Kong for Warranty if something goes wrong.

HTC Touch HD NL & FR delayed at Ingram Micro Belgium

The International English models already arrived early last week, and the NL and FR versions were set to arrive today or on wensday, but the status has changed and the delivery date has change to the last week of November.
Anywhere else where English versions are available but other language versions are delayed again?
Just bought my HD at the FNAC store in Brussels today. UK version, of course. Vendor told me FR/NL versions were due in store next week.
nl versions here in holland in the shops, just took i walk to the shop to look at one....
I bought my HD NL last Saturday in Vandenborre Belgium
I bought my HD FRL (benelux) Friday 07 november in Mediamrkt Belgium.
Ingram Micro is a supplier, the reason for this message is to tell anyone who ordered or waits for a store or company that orders HTC trough Ingram Micro, will have to wait for the NL and FR versions.
I can surely say it's here now.
It came in today, and I immediately bought it.
I was just on the phone with vodafone NL, and they told me it will come out end december begin 2009 if you want to get it with a vodafone contract. So i think thats also by Ingram Micro.
For those waiting for it to be supplied by vodafone, like me, this is bad news.
I think I will have to look for the phone without a contract. This will hurt my wallet.

To people who have bought the EU versions...

Have you bought an EU version of the Galaxy Note either from Amazon.de or one of the UK retailers selling them, like Handtec?
Are the manuals, box and documentation etc in English, or are they in German etc?
I got from eBay, the guy shipped from Germany so it's most likely the German version(Especially since the default language was set to German). The box was in English and the quick start guide came in English and German.
I'm awaiting delivery from amazon.de but I have already downloaded and browsed the user manual....

Question to those who bought from amazon.de

If you bought your phone from amazon.de web site, was it intended for german market or is amazon re selling units for other world market? There was an issue with guys purchasing Samsung Galaxy 2 from amazon.com where they find out that their unit was meant for Chilean or Vietnamese market. I am going to purchase from amazon.de and want it to be with german firmware version.
Can you please check? Thank you

Initially on bootup it is in German. At the wizard press the bottom right button. Select English. Then that's it its an English OS.
Some issues with the market. Its suggestion German ones to me like amazon app and google translate. Fix will be easy.
The instructions are EU and first language is English. Also note it comes with an EU plug.
Also some of the pre-defined browser shortcuts are for .de websites - notably Samsung. Again no problem.
A similar "localisation" occurs wherever you buy it from.

Belsimpel only delivers in the Netherlands and Belgium.
MediaMarkt Nordhorn already has it. The webshop doesn't (4-7 days), but the shop itself does.
Anyway, yes you can just change the language (I do it the other way around, I'm from the Netherlands and buy my phones in Germany.).
Thanks, talked to 5 Media-Markts in my near and they said all "no we dont has it" ...grml, now orderd online and its on his way, bought it from "talkthisway"
