Gotta agree with Riley. This should have been released eons ago. To have missed the Christmas rush while it's direct competition made it (Touch Pro, Iphone 3G, latest Blackberry etc) is just ridiculous. I heard they are aiming for a summer release now which is far too late cus everyone is locked down in their contracts now. It's too bad because it looks like a decent phone (could use a faster CPU and a better keyboard) but when you're the last horse to cross the line, no one cares how pretty the saddle is.
Well, it actually did release in time for the holidays, in Europe anyway.
And I dont know what youre talking about with this summer release thing. The X1a is out already too o_o (although I have no clue if stuff is still out of stock/recalled lol)
Sorry, I was talking about North America. I haven't heard of anyone over here selling it yet (save for the non-carrier full price ticket), and even more specifically to me (I live in Canada) the earliest I've heard is August. So for me, I walked away from my Titan and went for the Touch Pro because I couldn't wait for the X1 (Titan was dying), though I would have had a tough decision even if the X1 and Pro were out at the same time. I think I went the right route, but I would have liked that bigger screen that the X1 has.
