AT&T announce the Windows Phone is coming soon

[jfa1]

At this point people should refuse to buy any at&t WP to make a point that the lack of info is ridiculous, this is more than a farce now.

IMHO thats just as stupid as ATT's announcement coming soon!

AT&T isn't the only one. VErizon is also non-committal on dates, and T-Mobile will have theirs "by the 14th".

It's like you reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllly gotta love WP8 to buy a device in the US. You have to do all the work on keeping track of when you can get it and what you're getting.

Yeah, maybe I should have said ANY WP, its not as though its going to sell to anyone other than users of forums like this one. No Windows Phones, no Windows 8 tablets, so much for Microsoft's big comeback. :dry

The clear reports from non US markets is that Nokia cannot produce 920s in significant volumes. As a result, it is possible that AT&T is delaying all WP8s until the 920 is in sufficient supply.

The wait for the 920 could be weeks or even months (as it was for the 900). What a cluster.

I just find it ironic that we had all these rumors on Verizon having issues with WP8 and how they might delay or even cancel it's launch, then all of a sudden they are the ones with all the info and their launch is looking solid.

The "premier" carrier? Sucking it's thumb while all it's customers are frustrated at the lack of information.

I hope that's not the case. If it is then it's a big fail on Nokia's part. Even though the 920 is the better phone and that's what I'll be getting, I can understand why Microsoft is trating the 8X as the flagship.

Nokia needing a hailmary, but keep setting themselves back with penalties.

Funny if ATT is the premier why is Verizon the only one launching Data Sense with the new phones?

Right? I actually made a thread about that yesterday. Verizon appears to have their WP8 sh*t together more than AT&T does at this moment.

ATT is just too big for their own good...they really throw their weight around.

That could potentially bite AT&T in the as*.

Breaking news: Soon AT&T will make an announcement telling us that more information about WP8 will be coming soon.

I can't even get my head around this mess at this point.

LMAO!!

Seriously.

LMAO that's a good analogy!

I'm no water carrier for AT&T, but Verizon hasn't confirmed a single WP8 release date officially have they?

Truth be told, no. The only US carrier with something close to a release date is T-Mobile with the Lumia 810 and HTC 8X "available by November 14."

The reason a lot of the heat is directed towards AT&T is because they're supposed to be the "Premier Partner" and are the only US carrier that will sell the Lumia flagship 920.

Looks like November 11 might be the date. In the past AT&T released their phones on Sundays

Based on an old rumor. Might be true. Might not.

The latest is that the date will "officially" be announced this weekend.

May not mean much, but the Best Buy "Pre-Order Windows Phone 8 Mobile Phones" link has gone tits-up today--and I've been checking it on a regular basis.

No carrier marking on the ATT 920? Very nice. If ATT wasn't terrible in my area I'd be tempted.

The phones at the show are dev phones, not carrier branded ones.

 

[Stadifer]

It would seem that 11/11 is going to be the date for AT&T unless otherwise announced hopefully this weekend.

I'm curious if it is a supply chain issue or an issue with AT&T or Nokia getting the final bits of WP8 setup correctly on the hardware or the carrier. Typically in these sorts of hold ups it is the carrier trying to monkey around with the software.

eBay on the 9th according to wpcentral.

There's an unboxing video out there somewhere (slashgear, maybe) of an AT&T device- name on the phone, globe on the startup screen, etc

 

[brmiller1976]

It makes a lot of sense... the best carrier, T-Mobile, gets the best Windows Phones first!

AT&T peeps, hop in... the water's great, and so is unlimited 4G!

 

[AngryNil]

It's coming this month. Everyone's pegging it to come out in the first half of the month. Calm your cottons.

Windows Phone so powerful?

Very powerful.
