I had mine pre-ordered from Vodafone.

I received it this morning instead, along with the free beats headphones which I'll sell off somewhere.
Very happy, phone is amazing! 8D

Are you guys going to be using screen protectors? I've heard it seriously reduces screen sensitivity.

Just jumped on Facebook and HTC Australia posted this.

Well from the general response I have gotten from the stores around Melbourne, only official Vodafone stores will be getting them.
I've heard Westfield Sydney and North Sydney stores will have them by the afternoon.
I just bought one from a vodafone store in melbourne. Well half way through

Just been to worldsquare Sydney vodafone. No dice and they told me their not getting them. Was recommended qvb. Will update.

Made my way to westfield, and raindancerau was right about them stocking the 10.1v but they sold out already by people calling up this morning. More stock in a few days but as there is no waiting list you have to call on the day and they will put one aside.
# there is a display model to play with if your in Sydney and unsure if you want to buy #
Anyone know of any other places to try?

Just came from Melbourne Vodafone store (corner of Elizabeth and Bourke). Stock is sold out - but at least the do have one model for display purposes 8) I've tried to start it - but battery meter was showing only 2% charge, so device went to sleep mode straight away.
Friendly stuff member said he'll charge it so I'm heading back to that store after 5 pm to get a feeling of honeycomb ;-)
just picked one from the Chatswood vodafone store in Westfield seem to have quite a few. Very impressed with it. Lighter than the ipad and the new Vodafine 850 network is getting fast access.
the store I got mine from told me they were only getting the ten they got today in.
Called chatswood at 10 today and they just sold out.
Found one in newtown and just picked it up. I asked for you guys and they have 5 left so call now!
Let me know if these posts have been helpful to anyone

Got mine technically yesterday at 7:00 pm CST. I love it!
I picked mine up day after release at a t-mobile store. Was already a customer and didn't mind the contract renewal. Love the device. Apparently 20 stores in my area were sold out or didn't get their shipment, and the last store in my area had 2 devices left. When I arrived (They wouldn't hold the device for me...*sad panda*) They had 1 left....I got it. So happy with my purchase.
holding/caressing it now lol

Im still hoping that the orders are dispatched 2 days before and they arrive on the 15th...a guy can dream
So Amazon, expansys, 3 and various other retailers have officially delayed stock.
Clove is still showing the 15th, here's to hoping they don't get effected by this delay

The international htc one is not compatible with usa 4g networks afaik and any sim free phone is unlocked from the uk.
You have placed an order with us for the HTC ONE, we appreciate the order.
The original launch date was due to be the 15th March. We have today been advised officially by HTC that the UK launch date has been put back to the 29th March.
We apologise for this delay, but you will appreciate that this is out of our control.
We hope to ship all back orders as soon as the stock arrives and will update you as soon as we can with further information.

So delayed. Bravo. I think I will go for sgs4)))
Just got it too.
Well, if it means that the devices are more thoroughly checked, so be it.
I'd rather wait the extra time for a solid device.

I'd cut them a bit of slack TBH. Samsung did the same last year with the SGS3. Anyone remember the "hyperglaze" thing didn't go to plan. I think the white was delayed? Speaking of white... iPhone 4 in white... how delayed was that?!
So HTC have caught something in their QC. Cool.. just means we're going to have less chance to come on here complaining about poor hardware as they are working on it. I'd rather have a working device than something buggy that needs to be replaced.
Its a bummer but its only 2 weeks... don't wish your life away though!
I don't get this whole because the one is delayed I am going to get the S4, is the S4 likely to come out before the HTC One if so then I can understand but if it isn't then I don't get it! Also tbh I think those that are easily ready to jump ship because of a launch date rather than the phone being poor, were not really that interested in the phone in the first place imo.
