Sprint Confirm HTC Touch Pro Smartphone Release Delayed Sprint Touch Pro Launch Set Back

Sprint have confirmed that the launch of the Windows Mobile 6.1 powered
HTC Touch Pro smartphone, which was supposed to become available via
Sprint from 19 October, will no longer be launched on that date but will
probably now appear towards the end of October or the beginning of
November (unless its launch is set back yet again, of course).

A Sprint spokesperson told Crave, Sprint expects to slightly delay
launch of the Touch Pro by HTC to ensure we have adequate inventory in
all channels before making the device commercially available. Customers
can expect the device to become available in select national retailers
by the end of the month and then in all Sprint sales channels including
online at and Sprint Stores by early November.

In honesty, it's hardly a colossal delay, but those looking forward to
getting their hands on the highly desirable HTC Touch Pro will obviously
be hoping that this delayed launch date transpires not to pass into
further setbacks on the basis that their anticipation is already
undoubtedly at boiling point.
