I looked at the Motorola photon page on sprint today they have July 31st listed as the release date.

You get post of the day, especially as a first post. Thing is, it should be noted that when it came up for me, it says July 24th!

-EDIT- Nevermind. When I clicked the link from my computer, it doesn't say anything. Weird...LOL. I wish I could do print screen from my EVO, which is where I initially clicked.

Sooner than I expected, but AWESOME news for my last day of vacation.

Figured out it's something with my Google Chrome at home not showing the full flash visuals, so I used Internet Explorer to confirm!

$199 on July 24th!

-EDIT- Okay, I saw July 24th on the screen, but then in the description it clearly says July 31...LOL...I'm a little to hype about this...hahaha

For those of you with odd browser issues I thought I would add a nice little cropped screen capture :D

- I just noticed Drexappeal had a picture posted already, but mine is bigger :D
 
im curious to see if the release version of this phone differs from the one i have. i have noticed a few difference in lots of pictures and videos i have looked at on the net. most notably is the placement of the Motorola and Sprint banners. i have see Sprint printed on the back and Motorola on the front below the capacitive buttons. the business pro pic above shows just Motorola on the front. the Photon i have shows Sprint at the bottom below the capacitive buttons and Motorola at the top below the earpiece. just curious to see the final product.
 
With people talking about possible July 24 release, I went to a Sprint Corporate store yesterday to see if they had one to mess around with and I was told it is "delayed". He did not give me any more detail.

You might as well not have said anything about it, unless you had more info...sheesh, now I'm thinking I wasted money on express shipping for my gift cards, just to have them in time to buy the phone at Best Buy...ugh.
 
Well its the 24th and I do not see anything other than the pre-order stuff on wirefly, Amazon, walmart etc being that it comes out on the 31st and premiers get to order 3 days early on the 27th, I am wondering is it worth waiting or just do the pre-order now. I am so getting anxious. lol :D

Hmm. Well if its supposed to come out July 31 Sprint would have a pre-order by now. So I wonder how long this delay will be? Damn, I want this phone this week!
 
I was at the Sprint store Friday and the manager didn't mention anything about a delay. He said to call this Friday night to see if they had gotten any in to sell Sunday. It didn't sound like there had been anyone asking about the Photon (besides me).
 
Same story at my local Sprint store, the manager there told me I was the first one to ask about it. He is making sure that he has some coming in Friday, so he can sell me one Sunday morning. (No UPS delivery on Sat/Sun)

Well I hope the guy I spoke to was wrong. There's another store on my way home from work. I'll ask there tonight.

Either that, or maybe that particular store will be delayed in getting it, but not other stores?

OR...maybe they're just preparing for more sales than they originally anticipated for the Photon now that it's getting close? 4 days away from "early" premier customer purchase.

As I was looking at this, I noticed something odd.

Why does that lens say zoom??? this camera cannot have an actual zoom in it does it? I'm not talking digital zoom as it has been established that digital zoom must be labeled as such.

don't derail this thread, but I am just curious.

And three of my local stores say the 31st and no report of a delay.
