"They said the Sammy rep had just been by a week before and told them the i760 was not going to be released as planned. It is going back into the shop to get Rev A in the hardware. Sammy apparently believes the i760 cannot sell for long against the 6800 and other PDA phones with no hope of a Rev A upgrade."

Thats just crazy. Weeks before a Release and they are going back in to upgrade a the hardware. I think they should just Duct Tape the new Chip to the back side of the unit and get it out.

This sounds dubious. It's very late in the day for that, it would require all their testing to start again & resubmission to the FCC, etc. And this from the company that released the i730 with 2k3se on it in 05, waiting a full year to release a WM5 upgrade & never including it in their new i730s? Unless they feel they learned something from the i730, it just doesn't sound like something they'd do. Ironic too is the fact that the most anticipated phone ever is being released with EDGE, while Verizon is worrying that their 3G phone may not be fast enough.

Not really sure. He just said the document had old dates on there and they were lined out and then the newest dates were listed but it didnt really say if it would be to b2b, or stores or both? Hopefully now that we are slowly getting closer we will start to see more and more information.

Just one Question on the Release Date that you stated. 7/04/07. That's July 4, Independance day (a National Holiday). Are the Website guys going to be working to update the site that day? Or will it really be THURSDAY 7/5/07 for the RELEASE.
