Nothing yet for me :(. I wonder if orders are being filled as they were recieved? I actually ordered on day one but couldn't get through until 6 p.m.-ish that evening. Another interesting thing is that my account STILL SHOWS A CREDIT due :confused:. Anyone want to interepret that one for me? Did those of you who recieved a tracking number have a credit up until yesterday?

I would call Sprint and ask about your order. As far as the order, I have seen others on other sites who got their tracking numbers before I did, but ordered days after I did. I ordered within half an hour of the pre-orders going up.

At the store level we have received no info at all as of today. Originally The rumor was a release on Thursday or Friday...but no hard info yet :mad:

as posted all over the web..all pre orders placed online should be shipping now.

Usually they let the staff know by now of a launch so they can require managers to work. I would have thought with a Friday launch you would have known by now. If I hear anything I will let you know. What area are you in? ( don't be specific just generalities for you own safety who knows who reads these things. )

It seems like you have good sources and know what you're talking about.. I reserved a galaxy s3 in store, do you think this friday is when the stores will start selling them??

I am presuming you ordered a 16GB. I am not sure if you read the posts above or not but apparently store managers and reps have not been made aware of any launch date that is supposed to be Friday. This concerns me and doesn't make sense that managers wouldn't be aware of this yet since phones should be arriving to the stores tomorrow. As of 9am today no has mentioned changing the launch date. But when this happened last week and the announced sometime at night it was delayed.

UPDATE based on the mood I am getting from my girlfriend I don't think anyone knows whats going on with the store launch date. The only thing she knows for sure is the that all the 32 pre orders are supposed to be shipped today and tomorrow. Sounds like very frustrated company right now.

Not to mention frustrated customers. ;)

Nice man can you post on here tonight after you get it and let me know how much memory you have? I am curious to see what the actual amount of space is on the device.

That's one of the first things I was planning to look at before I install anything. I'll let you know when I get the phone. I can't wait to get this phone.

But you have an awesome network with Real LTE already LOL

Your real LTE should be coming out in the next few days if you live in Houston. There are a few other places but that is the only one I remember.

The other cities getting LTE on July 15 are Atlanta, Dallas, San Antonio and Kansas City

Thanks, that pretty much stinks. My business order was placed on the 21st when they opened it up (though they said they got an email notice at like 11pm on the 20th that they would not be doing the launch that day). So, they cannot actually process now until the 2nd when the business offices are open. So, it'll probably be the 5th before I get my two phones assuming they actually process and ship on Monday and Weds is a holiday so no deliveries then. Argh, that stinks.
 
I got my Blue 32. I must say I really like the look of the phone. I have not activated it yet. I am going to fully charge it then check the memory. The phone feels really good in the hand and the blue looks amazing!

Thanks man, glad you got it! After you have it charged before you put any apps on it just let me know much hard drive space you available out of the box please.

That link you posted is from the 19th. I just asked the GF about it and she ripped my head off. So I am not sure if its correct or not. I guess I dont understand why that was posted on the 19th with a July when have been talking Friday on these calls. I wash my hands of the in store launch dates lol.

I think that was the original message saying it would not be launching on the 21st and has been edited. However, there's no update or indication that it is an edit on the site. The same user posted the LTE rollout message too.
