Is there any info on approximate release date?

This year....who knows. I've heard everything from late June on. Hopefully early, I'm do for an "upgrade" in July

Yea I heard over at howardforums that it was scheduled for early july, but got pushed back to august due to a hardware change.... I'm betting it'll be out by late july though

According to the Wall Street Journal, Motorola is going to launch two smartphones on Verizon in July.

You and me both. Just wish I didn't have to add a line or pay full retail to get this one.

Guys - guessing you're all american. I am based in the UK and I can't remember how long it was between the Droid and Milestone being released, can anyone remember? It was finally released in late Nov 2009 here I think.

I recently lost my Nexus one (still hurts everyday) and I had been contemplating the HTC Desire (very much like the Droid Incredible I think) but I love my Vanilla Android (and the upgrade benefits that come with that).

I'm really loving the looks of this phone, just not sure how long I can go for without a smartphone!

The droid was Nov 09 early in the states as well. So if you got the milestone then sounds like a simultaneous release really.

Some time in July according to an insider on HoFo!

So it's looking like a father's day announcement and a july release... sweet!

I'm guessing the same. My Verizon rep told me to wait on getting an incredible because 2 new droid phones will be out in July. Glad I didn't pull the trigger on that incredible purchase yet!

I read a post at HOFO that it is going to be late August..

Interesting, that changes things a bit if that has any validity.

Latest info on Hofo points back towards a july release though... The comment about moving to August was from long ago.

I believe the consensus on decyphering the code talk was a Father's Day pre-orders and July 4th release.

Yep... this is the latest, the August prediction was from a while ago.

 

[Flying_Hellfish]

I guess we will know in a week and a half what really will happen on father's day.

 

[CriticalMass]

It's coming in the next 30 days. Think Early July. It also won't be sold under the Shadow name.

That's the information I have.

And no, don't ask about where I got my info. Nobody is getting fired over it.
