Vodafone UK apparently shipping Touch Pro2s to business customers

by Chris Ziegler posted Jun 12th 2009 at 12:18PM

"Regular" customers still have a bit of a wait yet, but it seems that Vodafone has gone ahead and pulled the trigger on shipments of HTC's Touch Pro2 to business customers -- assuming a post on the carrier's forums is legit. The phone's not due to be released until July 12 for any old chap who wants to fork over the dough for one, though it's not unusual at all for a carrier to offer hot new handsets to its prized B2B channel a little bit early. Windows Mobile 6.1 is still a bummer at this point, but you've got to give an enormous amount of love to the hardware -- and the promise of an official upgrade to 6.5 in the not-too-distant future.

Boobs? Shirt? Facial Structure? Hands? Looking for a argument it was a statement?

He looks a little like a girl I used to know (facial features, anyway). That girl USED to be a boy, so... could be both?

He is gross, first it looks like he is holding the phone with 2 thumbs. Second, looks he has a weird half a mullet. And I would be he has fucked up teeth.

Vodafone is not a 'carrier', it is a network.

I don't understand what your getting at?

Carrier - A telecommunications company.
Network - Radio, television a group of broadcasting stations that all transmit the same program at the same time

This artical is about affairs in the UK. The UK does not have 'carriers' they have 'networks'. Phone networks.

what does july 12th mean, since there will be multiple carriers getting this phone. Hopefully it meant sprint will be the first to get it on the 12th.

These are some lucky people to be getting these new touch pro 2's already. Very jealous... I have the first version running windows mobile 6.1 and I am really excited to see the new version with windows mobile 6.5 and the updated TouchFlo interface. Should be good!
