BEWARE!!!!! that link leads to the touch HD page but with a touch diamond already added to the cart. are you hoping people will blindly check out and have a free touch diamond shipped to you? or do you just want to get a kick out of people spending extra money on a phone they didn't intend to buy???

I logged onto the site and when I went to the checkout, it was the HTC HD unit!
Not sure why you got a HTC Diamond ????
But always good to check first !
Cheers

my apologies to the OP, i jumped the gun. i dont know what happened either, i clicked on that link multiple times, i even cleared the browser cache each time. blah.. must be my computer acting up again. my bad once more

Well but the site is not worth my confidence or true..
they have on the bottom of the page this:
Copyright © 2006 Inkino Ltd.
2006?! outdated no?

No - that is when they asserted copyright. I can vouch for inkino (having visited their stores and purchased from them several times). They offer great and reliable service.
Others think so too -eg:

Can I just add that I have bought my QTEK S200, Trinity and Touch Pro from INKINO. You may not get the very best price (you are generally talking only a few tens of pounds on a £500 product), but the service and assistance I have had from the guys who work there is second to none.
I went in yesterday with a problem on my Touch Pro and it was sorted straight away with no quibbles whatsoever. All the people who work there know their stuff when it comes to HTC and will be very straight with you. They are an HTC Authorised Ultimate Partner. They do not hard sell or push something they know is not what you want or need. A BIG contrast to some of the other stores in that area!
There are in fact two INKINO stores. The one at 48 Tottenham Court Road is within another shop and can get busy, the other is a little down the road at 9 Great Russell Street, bigger and generally more staff but no less quality of service.
(A big thanks to Alan, if you're listening, for yesterday - its working fine)
PS I don't work for them either.

Interesting email from Clove Technology....
There are some things in life that are worth waiting for; the new HTC Touch HD is just one of those things. You registered to be notified when the HTC HD became available, we can today confirm that as of next Tuesday, the 4th of November, we will have limited stock arriving.
This exceptional unit has received phenomenal levels of interest and is the ultimate Windows Mobile device. Want to be reminded of what all the fuss is about?
If the answer is yes, take a look at the following:
- 3.8-inch wide, WVGA (480 X 800 pixel) for a rich viewing experience
- Vibrant TouchFLO 3D user for complete finger navigation of the main features including contacts, calendar, music and video.
- Surf the web and download pages at broadband speed with HSDPA internet connectivity
- GPS on board with Google maps offers street level navigation
- 5 megapixel camera for quality stills and video
- 3.5 mm audio jack makes the HTC HD compatible with the majority of audio equipment available
- Bluetooth and WiFi for complete wireless connectivity to other devices and the internet or networks.
With such a feature rich specification this is the device that everyone is talking about. Much of our first stock is pre-sold but we do still have a number of units available.
Priced at a very competitive £445 + VAT the HD is available for order today by clicking the following link .................
If you have already placed an order, you need not do anything more. We shall process and ship your order as soon as stock arrives.
The Clove Technology Sales Team.

Just to point out, I followed that website from the main HTC website and that I just copied the link..
I wasn't encouraging or promoting the website! Just pointing out it was there!

Expansys UK - You have been warned!

If you are considerin an order with Expansys - think again!
I tried to post this in the Expansys forums but it was deleted within minutes and it seems they have now blocked my right to post!
Ordered the Desire HD with free accessoy pack (204815) when stock was showing as available and confirmed that the item was in stock with customer services prior to placing the order.
Order summary showed everything in stock but when the order moved to 'in progress' the Desire HD then showed 'Estimated 1 day'. This then moved to 3 days and is currently showing 6 days!
Called customer support and was told that everything is in stock but the Desire HD - this was obviously the main part of the order. When questioning why the site said 'in stock' when ordering I was offered no explanation and was told that the Desire HD is in high demand.
Poor Expansys, very poor. If you don't have the stock, do NOT say that you do!

This mirrors my experience 18 months ago with the my HTC Magic order I finally cancelled my order having been told good luck but no-one has any in stock and got one from phones4u delivered the following day. I have stayed away from Expansys since but if you look they always claim to be getting items in much earlier than anyone else

I really do hate it when any online company shows something I want as "IN STOCK" when in actual fact they have nothing, www play com also does this.

Worse still is being lied to when calling to check stock level on the site. On two occasions I spoke to Expansys (two separate orders) and on two occasions I was told they were in stock. Guess what, on two occasions the order reverted to 'awaiting stock' following payment!
Not impressed with Expansys at all. The part that annoyed me even further is that my query and warning to others in the Expansys forum was removed within minutes and I was barred from posting again!
Not good business!

Expansys are scammers, pure and simple. I've had a couple of similar experiences and now wouldn't touch them with a barge pole.
I strongly advise everyone to keep well away.

They're showing 99 in stock at the moment so you should be getting yours soon. Hopefully. Fingers crossed.

I always stick to ebay when buying new phones and the sellers with excellent feedback usually dont let you down.

I was going to buy a couple of charging docks from Expansys (my wife has a DHD too) and I was pleased to see a voucher for 50% off. At the basket it would only discount one dock and not two so I had a grumble to myself and decided to buy neither. Nice looking little dock though, but I am put off buying there by the stories here.

The exact same thing happened to me when I ordered my htc desire a few months back, they said they had it in stock on the website, then then out of stock, then estimated 2 days, then 5 days then 10 days .
It was so bad I almost harmed myself!
Anyways why are you ordering from expansys, they have the highest price at the moment for the Desire HD, there are other places selling it cheaper.

I STRONGLY suspect they are not in stock at all and this is just a ploy to secure 'pre-orders'. Let's face it, their price is that far inflated over the competition what else would make us buy from them, the fact they have it 'in stock' even though they don't!
There is no way they would suddenly have 100 units in stock when I was told today they are having trouble maintaining stock level and that they expect a delivery on Tuesday, therefore mine SHOULD be shipped out Tuesday or Wednesday.
My order still shows 'Estimated 6 days' even though stock shows as 99+ A complete joke!
Good luck to all who place an order with Expansys!

They MIGHT be ok for accessories but then having had first hand experience of their sly ways I can not recommend them. Buy at your own risk :-/

Simply because they had them in stock, or so I was told!
Personally I no longer believe a word these cowboys say and I will definitely be recommending that people to not buy from Expansys after my experience.

Not surprising to hear, unfortunately. I ordered my Hero through them last year, and the days kept creeping up, with stock levels showing as available. A common trend, it seems.

I really can't see why they are allowed to say they have something in stock when they clearly do not. Moreover, to be told they are in stock when ringing to verify the stock level on the website is just plain dishonest!
Removing my post in the forums and blocking my access is just the icing on the cake!

Another one with a bad experience of eXpansys.
It took them over 2 weeks to deliver my daughter's HTC Snap even though it was supposedly in stock. Ignored e-mails too. Terrible customer support.
Complete and utter shysters, plus that annoying t**t, Peter Jones has his sticky fingers in the company.
Please, for your own good, avoid eXpansys like the plague!

I would also recommend avoiding Expansys.
In my experiences, their stock numbers are not reliable (i.e. fabricated). Their deceptive business practices lure you into ordering with them then keep you hanging on waiting for your product.
On one particular order when I queried when delivery was to occur I was told to "relax" and that it was "on it's way." If their pricing was cheaper/competitive then you could reasonably put up with this.
Other than a poor customer experience, inflated prices and deceptive/misleading business practices they are fine (i.e. you'll eventually get what you've purchased in good condition).
Would recommend Handtec first, then Clove as better alternatives.

I agree that this quite nicely sums things up with this company.

Expansys also shipping Vodafone branded DHD as "sim-free, unbranded"!!!
1) Expansys do get 100 handsets but it seems they only update the 'in stock' numbers once a day when they 'process' orders. If you are customer 1-99 then great, no problem but if come online in the evening and are customer 100+, and they haven't updated the numbers, then you essentially become a pre-order - even though it says in stock. Dodgy.
2) BUT, way more dodgy... I just got my DHD yesterday: sim free, unlocked, unbranded and clean ...or so I thought.... But what do I see as soon as I boot? Vodafone branding. Called them; "oh, but it is just the boot logo, otherwise it is a normal DHD" Not good enough, I buy unbranded cos I want unbranded!
And Vodafone 360 replaces Amazon MP3 in the HTC music player too - so more than just a boot screen. What else is affected? Where do the upgrade ROMs come from? HTC or so I have to wait for a Vodafone ROM??
Worst of all, when I call HTC to migrate my Navigation subscriptions they tell me I should return the DHD as I shouldn't have a UK Vodafone branded handset in Sweden, and that Expansys shouldn't be selling it to me.
3) To give Expansys some credit here (a little), they send TNT in a few hours to collect the Vodafone handset and supposedly have a replacement, real sim-free, unbranded handset to send me tomorrow. Just hope it exists and shows up.

Wow, that IS dodgy! Wonder how that slipped in there!

Expansys is known for a dodgy rep , if you are buying sim free from the uk stick with clove or handtec dont even consider expansys.
i boughts something a while ago from them i received an empty box :\, when i asked questions i got no answer i did a charge back thingy with my bank and got the money back, was for a replacement phone charger luckily it didnt cost too much

DVP - 6th of january in UK according to WMpowerusers

This link tells me it's very near!
http://wmpoweruser.com/dell-venue-p...the-uk-on-the-6th-january-2010/#idc-container

Didn't realise it supported 3G T-Mobile USA roaming. That is definitely another point in its favour over the Samsung. This has put my decision making process back to square one...

Got a voicemail from Orange UK today - probably the upgrades team. "After investigations" they have no release date for the Venue Pro. It could either be in testing (e.g.: some Orange engineers are unnecssarily fiddling about with the phone/software/painting an Orange logo on it) or it may not be released at all.
Probably the former.

Hmm, I was just wondering about sniffing around the net if there would be any news about a european release...
Fingers crossed for some good news... Maybe I'll need to twitter Dellcares or Lionel...

Anybody else order the DVP from the Dell.co.uk website?
I put my order in on 2/3/2011. Expected delivery date is 10/3/2011.
Went back to check the website just now to see if the prices changed (they had free delivery until 2/3/2011... now that its 3/3/2011, I wondered if anything new was offered), and although the DVP product site is there, you can't get any further when you choose "Select this"... almost like its disappeared!... Ominous signs?
I'm taking a huge risk with the DVP, especially with the crashing issues I hear about. But we'll see. I've never seen the phone in real life, but most review websites says its the best Windows Phone device out (if it works 100% of the time). Either way, I checked the cancellation policy and Dell UK give 7 working days for a full refund. We'll see how it goes.
There simply isn't any other WP7 phone out there that I like in the UK. I would have gone with the Omnia 7, but with 8GB it's just too small. Ideally I would have chosen a Samsung Focus, but its not offered here.
One bonus with the DVP in the UK is it costs only £5 to get another full year warranty. Another omninous sign?! who knows .

Have you take a look at the new HTC 7 Pro? I heard from a review that it has the best QWERTY Keyboard so far... Might wanna check it out. If not, Why not call Dell and check up on your Order.

To be honest I've been waiting for the DVP for a while.
I know I want WP7, but the current range of devices are pretty limited really. Other than the DVP, all the rest of pretty 'normal' I suppose.
I'm waiting it out, it only has been a few days yet. I'll update the board with my findings.

Free Gear VR - How to claim!

Claim here: https://promos.samsungpromotions.com/gearvr/Mobile

You wait until 3/4 for the website to go live. Also that reciept isn't going to help you fully. You still need the Mac Address. So either way you still have to wait for the phone.

Same! i feel like very few people go in a store just to preorder, ya know? If you're preordering a smartphone, you most likely have internet access, ergo, not getting a paper receipt

Yes they allow screenshots of the receipts. I did that last time with the Note 5 for the free Netflix.

On sprint you have to add the gear vr manually or purchased manually and the CS said it comes together as a package.

This. I just ordered two S7 Edges to get one half off and when I added the Gear VR it zeroed out. Only thought it would work for one VR but I decided to add another and still $0. It wasn't til I added the 3rd VR that the price went up.

I pre-ordered from Best Buy online, and it appears that the two free items are coming to me from Best Buy directly.

I received my phone and have to wait till the 4th. The Samsung offer website only allows me to input my email to be notified when it's up I guess.

Looks like I will be out of town the week the vr form is open and when the phone comes in from att. Do I need the phone or can I use the emailed receipt? If I need the phone will they keep allowing the orders to come in for the free vr till the end date since I will be out of town?

Just got my S7 Edge today and had the same experience trying to claim the perks. Nice to find this thread and that I am not alone in trying to figure this out.

Its always better to buy in a shop , mainly because you get to see the phone in real life , plus if there is something wrong with the phone you swap it on the spot , also shops have coupons to claim the free vr as well

Well if t-mobile gave us our pre-order phones in store 2 weeks before the official release date that would be great but we all know that's not happening.

Website is live to claim the VR. Just finished the process. Make sure to have a copy of receipt for final steps.

I attached my purchase confirmation email from T-Mobile. It has all of the information they should need, hopefully that works.

I just submitted as well. I printed my payment processing email from T-Mobile to a PDF file as my receipt and listed the date that they charged me as the date of purchase (transaction date as listed in the email) - it wasn't clear if they wanted the order date or the date that the purchase was actually processed so I went with the latter. Hopefully they spot both dates when they go to match it up.

I just completed my claim form as well.
I know someone is going to ask so you need 4 things to process the claim:
-Date of Purchase
-IMEI (In Settings>About Phone)
-Wi-Fi MAC ADDRESS (In Settings>About Phone)
-Photo of your Receipt (I sent a PDF of a email I got from t-mobile that says "Here's your Receipt" which includes the information they request on the receipt being, Qualifying Purchase or Lease, Date of Purchase or Lease within the purchase period, and the Name on the Receipt must match the name on the offer claim form.)

Where to get it "from stock"

I ordered mine from efox-shop.com
Shipment by DHL Express was fast, but it takes around 5 working days (after the order/payment) until it is picked up by DHL and shipped from their Hong Kong warehouse.
So expect 5 - 10 working days before it reaches you. In Germany, DHL also does tax and VAT and collects the amount cash at delivery... Don´t know how that works in other Countries.
AOSP apk are easy to get in the Google Play Store (which is already installed and easy working).
Hope I could help.
best regards

According to Elephone Facebook site, US version will probably not be released until July. Originally, back in November, I was told January, then before April 20th and now it's July?

Have you got your phone already then? I've ordered mine via Elephonestore and am deciding whether I should cancel the order or not as they aren't clear when mine will be shipped.

No, I have not ordered yet. Been waiting for the US version, which they keep delaying and can not give me a definite date when it will be released. Makes you wonder about the quality of their work, when this is the way they do business.

Dunno let me know how it goes though. At most you'd probably get stung £20-£30 which isn't bad as it still puts the phone under £200 which seems about right. I'm deciding now whether I want to cancel with elephonestore and reorder this via another shop or go with a Xiaomi Mi4s or Redmi Note 3 Pro. Both around the same price but then I'd be losing NFC and Band 20 (not a big deal for me as I might switch from GiffGaff to EE if I do). Did order a £5 glass screen protector for the P9000 that hasn't arrived yet so might just write off that and just go with a different phone. Annoying thing is Xiaomi probably locks boot loader or isn't close to vanilla android. Lots of good phones out there for around the £200 mark!

I think a lot of people still awaiting shipment these days. Next weeks community will start with lots of discussions. Lets keep connected with first experiences of tax & device itself. @DaBountyHunter: I also thought about switching to Xiaomi or Redmi (Note) device, but will give the P9000 a chance first (i also like the NFC, QI-Charge, USB-C features and also i hope for a working gyro in the P9000). I have tested the Elephone Trunk for couple of days (handed over to a friend) and was pretty ok with the quality (also with 3 OTA updates within first weeks for the Trunk it seems that Elephone is working on ROM quality for their new devices).
Br Arangato

Personally I definitely wanted Android v6 Marshmallow, and neither of those two alternatives have I believe, but the P9000 has.

Yeah that's definitely one of the things that drew me towards the P9000. It's got everything there the only negative is the P10 is a bit underpowered but then all I do is surf the web... whatsapp and play Clash of Clans and it'll be fine for that. Just wish it was easier to get hold of !

I have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 2s, it's a well made phone and before the most recent ota which redeemed my Neuxs 5x it was my daily driver but it's frustratingly poor Android experience. You can replace the launcher so it looks like something other than the bastard child of IOS but miui 7 is very very aggressive in killing background apps, which makes listening to music difficult so I'm hoping the P9000 with stock is a better experience. I'll let you know.

It came this morning with No customs & excise duty charged :victory:
I first ordered it on 26th March and received it today 9th April: that’s 14 days (10 working days) I’m happy with that.
So in answer to the question “Where to get it from stock" e-Fox for sure.
It looks good came well packed, I haven’t had a chance to try it out yet only put it on charge so far.

Was it via DHL? Thanks for reporting back. Wish I didn't waste time with Elephonestore and saw these people first. Please update if you do get Tax because sometimes they are crooks and send you a letter a week or two after you've received the goods. You can normally dispute the admin charge on that but you still have to pay the customs and vat unfortunately.

The shipping agent (from HK) was Netherlands (PostNL International Mail) then it was passed on to Royal-Mail to deliver, I didn’t have to sign anything, (but I was still in bed when the postman came) the package had a declared value of $75 US on it.

Cheers mate looks all good then! Hope you enjoy the phone !! Happy days !! also does yours come with the silicone case in the box as others have?
Also which shipping method did you choose as there's three there...
Registered airmail... german express... and dhl

I order my P9000 also at eFox. But since 02.04 the status is "Shipment ready to be shipped". Nothing happens
