the video is now public and absolutely worthless.
The page changed. His link use to go to a page about all new fall devices. Now it just goes to a Note 2 page.
It's downright ridiculous that the 920 was announced a month and a half ago and will not have pricing/release or even be available before a product that is announced today (iPads/all other products announced today except the iMac).
I agree. At this point, might as well just call it a ghost phone. Don't announce a phone and make people wait so long just to get a confirmed release/pre-order date. MS just has a terrible track record for phone releases. I want WP8 to succeed. But they need to get their calendar cleaned up pronto.
Is anyone thinking about how carrierers launch these things? Apple is the only dominant figure that can dictate timing (disagree if you want, the proof is in the pudding). Most phones for carrierers (not OEMS) get some sort of true announcement a few days before release/pre order. Seeing is how the 920 is NOT supposed to hit shelves until Nov, we have at least a week to go.
Why don't we all hold tight for a bit before we hang MS out to dry? Especially since their major W8 (everything) has yet to happen...
Meh... I see your point, but don't necessarily agree with it...Because MS and Nokia thought it was a good idea to announce the product in the beginning of September but not allow people to actually use the phone because the OS wasn't ready. It doesn't look good when a product is nearing 2 months of public knowledge and still hasn't been handled fully or given a release date/price. And it isn't just carriers, they did the same thing with Surface.

Everyone knew that the MS event was going to be held in late Oct. Therefore, it is not unreasonable to expect devices running the WP8/W8 OS' wouldn't be available until then.
Having said that, what would we have done IF Nokia/HTC/Samsung (yeah, lets not forget they all did the same thing) announced the price 2 months ago? Sat here and over analyzed "is it worth that?" "I can get this much memory for this much money." "The camera tech isn't that valuable." Blah blah blah.
The internet is always going to have something to complain about.
And besides, we all should have a pretty good idea of pricing after the whole BB debacle.
Either that event should have been later or there should have been a stream of info or leaks to keep it relevant.
100% on this - it could have been done with a little more "bait."
I disagree entirely. It staved people from jumping on the iPhone 5.
