The fuze is made by BUFU.:D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] lbhocky19:
yessssssssssss!!!!

after waiting on hold the manager said he will sell it to me

all i have to do now is make it through my next class then drive an hour im so excited
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ramontrotman:
downtown fulton and the wall st. store. both of them have the phones. they're saying they dont want to get in trouble and get written up for selling early. what really bugs me is, the rest of the united states is selling it if they have it. this kills me!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] lbhocky19:
tell them to sign on the website and look

the store i just dealt with said the only problem would be if the system didn tlet it sell but it does
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] NotATreoFan:
She's keeping her Samsung C417 (same crappy phone I've been using since I sold my Tilt last week). I'm just upgrading her line, then tossing my SIM into the phone.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fyr196:
OK,

McHenry, IL. (815) 363-0888 (any one)

Has them in stock and will hold them for you.

Vernon Hills, IL. (847) 247-0378 (Josh)

They have them but will not hold them.

Good Luck, I have one held for me at McHenry till I get off from work. :) Now I just have the wait. Just 4 more hours.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] DSmithZ28:
I also have one on hold in Mississippi. :)

They all knew it was coming in tomorrow and that they should se them this afternoon via Fed Ex.

DAMN IT'S ABOUT TIME!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] enzov:
I would like to buy the phone without a data plan, but can I get the most out of this phone without one? I have Wifi available 90% of the time so it may not be much of an issue for me.

It would really help me if someone can answer these questions:

1) Will I be able to turn off all data through the AT&T and just enable Wi-fi?

2) Would I be able to watch Xvid, Divx, and MP4 files without any dropped frames, etc., if the resoulutions are under 640x480?

3) What accessories are included and where can I purchase a tv-out for the phone?

Thanks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] bugsykoosh:
Thanks - i just tried more in midtown and you'd swear that the Fuze is a made up device... If they can't get it here I'll see you downtown:) If I get told one more time that the release date is next week...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] DSmithZ28:
I don't know how he is going to do that. I begged the manager at my store to do it and they said that they could not physically sell it as it would not be in their system...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] volcomnator999:
i thought about doing the same thing..but i want the rebate and i would have to sign up on the data plan on my moms line. but i also have the data plan on my line...so its gonna be a waste of money paying for the data plan on my moms line since no one uses it. ill guess ill get it without the data plan
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] m.carroll:
hey natf,

did you by chance get a contact name/number for the premier rep you talked to? i just talked to one and he said he can't order it if its not on the website...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] lbhocky19:
the guy i talked to said it woudlnt be but he actually went ahead and checked

since so many stores have sold it their systems are linked so any can sell it
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] aniv:
Just got it from the ATT Corporate Store in Round Rock, TX next to Home Depot and Walmart. I qualified for an early upgrade and paid a $18 early upgrade fee. Total with tax was 378.86 (8.25% tax included) and a $50 mail in rebate.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Black93300ZX:
A hell of a lot cheaper than the Xperia that will be selling for $799.99 at Best Buy in December. ;-)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] m.carroll:
yeah, 2 premier reps have now confirmed that if its not on the website, i can't place an order...maybe i'm just unlucky.

i really find that hard to believe, that to place an order on the phone, they use the same website we have access to?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] nogardtilt:
If I may ask, how far into your contract were you aniv? I'm curious to know what length of time is acceptable for early upgrades.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] centex99:
Anyone have any lucky yet today in the DFW area?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] m.carroll:
omg. this third rep has had me on hold for like thirty minutes... i think i'm just going to tell her to forget about it and i'll wait. yayy customer service. at least shes a domestic rep....
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] marasm:
Anyone in Colorado got your hands on one of these yet? Does anyone know what store has them in stock at least for tomorrow?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] exchguy:
Yep, just got mine from the Aurora, CO store in CornerStar about 1 hr ago. They had a few in stock. Good luck!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] edj628:
FUZE Release

I live in Williamstown New Jersey and I know its being released tomorrow.. I saw the dummy model and they said they got the shipment in today. I'm pretty excited to get this phone, I'm really looking forward to it. UNFORTUNATELY (IM PRETTY PISSED ABOUT THIS) the dummy had symbols on the top row.... which ****in blows. i never use those numbers to dial a phone number, so gay...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] marasm:
BIG thanks to YOU!!! I will head over there ASAP :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] aniv:
I had around 5 months left..till May 09
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Bizybone:
Double post.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Bizybone:
Hmm, I'm eligible for a upgrade in June. Just checked the account and I see my mother is eligible for an upgrade :D now to see If I can grab it from her. It shouldn't be a problem since it's my money but I think she will be floored at the amount I am willing to spend on "just a phone".
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] m.carroll:
:( my sister just bought one. and i still dont have one. and premier wont order one. :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] nyckid211:
she bought it in-store?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] 900SS:
Anybody have any luck in northern California?..

I have been calling around and have heard everything from Nov11 to we dont carry that phone?...

one store in San Jose said that they will be released on Nov11 but that he still dosent having any stock yet.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ilikepu:
i bought mine today at att retail store here in hollywood. . . (Florida) but yea i finally got mine im soo happy
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] renegadebmw:
I have called all four stores in my area again and still no one is budging. One actually said they should have a shipment tomorrow morning and to check back then. Everyone else won't even confirm the release date. I hope I don't have to drive up to St. Louis just to get one this week.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] johndango:
Just picked up mine from an ATT store in Redmond Wa. $107 after all applicable discounts. ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] nthdgreee:
Anyone find a place willing to sell them in Colorado Springs, CO. I found one place that has them but won't sell until tomorrow.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] P1Tater:
Just got mine at my local store at 3:30pm EST. WOOOOOHOOOOOO, let the flashing begin.:D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] m.carroll:
yep, a little store in oviedo, florida. super jealous.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] intothevoid:
Thats good news. Sucks can't even reserve it. Store opens at 7:30am. Hope it doesn't run out.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] wickedday:
I just picked mine up in Emeryville - Bay Street. They were checking in their shipment at 12:30pm and have stock.

So far, it's awesome.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] intothevoid:
R u in nyc ?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] iboj007:
Damnit DC/MD/VA Stand up!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Immix:
Dunno about DC and VA but i just got mine at the Baltimore AT&T store near inner harbor. You might wanna hurry up to this store if you wanna grab one because the rep there told me that they only had a couple before i bought one. Call them
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] nogardtilt:
Thanks for the info, although it makes me sad that I'm not even 8 months in.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] AllTheWay:
No he's in South Carolina.

However Rzanology who is from "Brooklyn" said they stores there will be selling them tomorrow.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] y2whisper:
hahaha gotta love the quotation marks
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] m.carroll:

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] mike19722:

Got mine today ....here in Illinois....West Dundee........THIS THING IS AWSOME

Peace

Mike:D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] hopper13:
Got mine in PA. Had to insist that Customer Service told me the manager had discretion. ;-)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] coldbeer:
San Diego are

Anyone found any stores with them in the San Diego area? Ive called around and doesn't sound like anyone will have them tomorrow. Any one else have better luck?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Nonsequitur:
DC area

Just picked up a Fuze at the AT&T Store in Bailey's Crossroads. They had 2 or 3 left when I arrived and I'm pretty sure they were cleaned out by the time I left. Nice looking phone, feels much smaller than the Tilt, better keyboard.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] rymonday:
Lewisville store of round grove has them in just got mine in hand 263ish out the door with 50 dollar mail in rebate...

Also some one in garland said they had them
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Kraize:
Gay. >=/ I want'z my fuze.

Anyone have luck in the Sacramento or Bay area in california?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] centex99:
How'd you get it for 263? I thought it was $349 + tax
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] dodgebj2:
Finally got my fuse went into the corporate store in west springfield and they had just gotten in their stock at 2pm.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] rymonday:
I dunno? I will check the receipt later tonight to see
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] DavidJ84:
Thank you so much for the tip! I went down there and the salesman immediately tried to add on $100 of accessories and kept pushing additional services down my throat... I then had to argue with his manager to either sell me the phone with my FAN discount or let me upgrade 8 days early. Everyone I dealt with at that store was an asshole. He eventually realized that I wouldn't leave without the phone and he sighed and told the salesman to just take care of it. Nothing like the ATT store by me... Anyway, I got my Fuze now too! If anyone else in the west or north west Chicago suburbs wants a Fuze, the St. Charles and Wheaton stores I called earlier both had them in their shipping logs (or so they said) so they should have 'em tomorrow.:D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] verks:
Cleveland Ohio here. I just picked mine up from the North Olmsted store on Lorain. They had plenty. The first Fuze I received had a loose keyboard. I could grab the section with the screen and wiggle it. I went right back in and they exchanged it. Woo Hoo!!

Time to hack. I did notice that the screen seems more responsive. Also i tried to install a new clock and the FInixnOverBattery it wouldn't take either. Hmmm.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Kraize:
Corporate discounts are a great thing ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] slyng1:
wow... things starting to heat up here - keep posting where you got your fuze. Anyone in the NJ/NY area get one? If so, where?

Planning on getting it tomorrow - i think the Wall Street store may be getting some.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] isaacfinnegan:
Just came from ATT store in Cupertino (on stevens creek near Lawrence) they have them in stock ( 9, I think after mine) When I called, they told me that they had it but it wasn't released, so they couldn't sell it. I told the guy on the phone that my brother was able to get one in MA. So he left me on hold for 10 min while he went to see if he could sell it. Came back and said, yup I can sell it now. So I drove down and am now a happy fanboy.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] AllTheWay:
No luck so far in the Sacramento area / Folsom area. Called the Folsom store and they told me they had but didn't have "expected release date yet." Whatever that means. I then called the Placerville, CA store. The girl there told me they got them in but to come in tomorrow and then she could sell me one.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] 900SS:
great .. thank you just called on my way to pck mine up...

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] enzov:
Edit: never mind
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] MikeGL2:
Anyone in Arizona have any luck finding a Fuze?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] bartimeus:
I just talked to a rep at the store near me and she said that they must be sold out of Tilts before they are eligible to sell the Fuze so maybe your store isn't sold out and they don't know when they will be. She said I can come in and get one tomorrow =D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] AllTheWay:
Yes...I am happy that I can get my phone tomorrow at a local store. The girl ensured me that I could come in tomorrow and pick one up. :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] RizwanKhan:
well tomorrow is not as good as today :D going to the att store by my house right now :) they got two left !!!!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] AllTheWay:
Sorry...believe me I wish I could have it today. I really do, but in the scheme of things one day does not make a difference. Besides all you guys that mess up your phones today by flashing will let me know..."what not to do" Sorry that was just mean.

I'm not bitter or jealous by any means. No....not at all.

LOL
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] RizwanKhan:
hahahaha ofcourse no jealousy :d
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] TeslaTrav:
Got it in Oklahoma.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Kerensky97:
If we're all speculating here's the answers I got from 7 local stores (in their own words).

-In the next few weeks.

-Soon

-2 weeks

-Maybe 2 weeks

-I don't know

-This week

-We don't carry that brand

A nice cross section that pretty well represented what everybody else here has been saying (ie nobody really knows for sure). One rep gushed that she was getting hers this Friday and couldn't wait. Another said that no matter when they come in they won't say its for sale until I shows up on the web site.

So my $10 prediction:

Phone shipments will start arriving in stores end of this week and will go on sale Tuesday the 11th.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] MRFERRARI23:
how does the discount work if your account has a fan #???? i was reading about it in the other fuze thread thats now closed, do they automatically know or when ur in the att store do u have to make mention of it??? please if anyone knows id appreciate it :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] XGear:
Congratulations to Barack Obama!!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] g2tl:
The first thing he should do is tell at&t to release the stupid fuze
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Phantisy:
We are screwed either way so it doesn't matter who won.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] thunda_chunky:
Yeah either way we still don't have the FUZE :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] asingic:
regardless of who won, and who you voted for ...

I LIVE IN THE USA

ok so where is my fuze?? is there any more rumors?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Phantisy:
Exactly what I was thinking until someone jacked the thread with something that reminds us where the economy continues to go. Now back to the waiting game.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] baboola:
i'd guess bring your fan # when you buy the phone
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] lbhocky19:
OBAMA give me my fuze!!!!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] JimmyMcGee:
Yes He Can! ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Black93300ZX:
Words of a tyrant, leave our nation immediately.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Kraize:
They should already know. Don't mention it unless they don't give you the discount.

Wrong thread. Phail lawlz.

(Wrong thread I know) but economically wise, I think we'll go up

How mad would you guys be if you were watching the news and Obama picks up a call on his phone and you see it's the fuze :rolleyes:

On a side note:

WOO HOO! Can't wait any longer! With schap's TouchXperience almost in public beta and the fuze almost ready to be released! It's the perfect b-day gift! I've always loved November ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Black93300ZX:
November's gonna suuuuck for me.

At least Question 2 passed for Massachusetts, as did Question 1 for Michigan. I'm as happy about those things as I am about Obama.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Kraize:
You meant Prop 1 and 2??? Prop 1 is gonna suck money and so is prop 2 =/
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Black93300ZX:
...I don't think you have a clue of what I'm talking about. Question 1 for Michigan legalized medical marijuana while Question 2 for Massachusetts made under 1 ounce of marijuana a civil offense, bringing a $100 fine with no arrest or criminal record. If you think those suck money, I don't know what country you're living in.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ACMilan07:
guys guys guys, can i buy an htc touch pro and somehow get the 3g to work with att? somehow down the line.. as in in the near future.. like in a month? or is the issue hardware completely?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] lbhocky19:
both of those need to happen nationally
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Black93300ZX:
They've been trying for months and months and no success yet... Just wait for the Fuze.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Black93300ZX:
I agree 100%, but baby steps are the way to go. I'm living in Massachusetts now so it was a good step to take, even if it can't happen all at once I'd much rather pay $100 than have a criminal record.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] bartimeus:
I am so sad I am not eligible for an upgrade...bleh. How much will it cost w/o an upgrade?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] dokomo:
Thanks for the heads-up. I'm going to swing by and try to pick one up after work. Do you remember the person you spoke with, and did you enter into another 2-year agreement or just buy the phone by itself?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] t3t5u0:
Great... my local store (Nashville,TN) is still telling me that it hasn't shipped to stores and won't be released until next week. When I pressed and mentioned many internet sites claiming to have purchased them today, I was told you guys were lying.

So either I got uninformed bozos in my local store (lucky me) or you guys are ALL lying?

;-)

May have to drop in tomorrow and see if they have them...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] clitcommander:
Sweeeet! Glad I could help someone on their quest. Sucks that you had to deal with d-bag salesmen, though. Whoever I spoke to sounded like a decent enough dude. Whatever, you got your Fuze!

Enjoy!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] intothevoid:
got mine yes!!!!!! At the rego park, ny on continental
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] RizwanKhan:
.

it is 499 without contract... i don't know but you could inquire about early upgrade exception which costs 75 bucks plus 18 processing fee. So that would set you: 350+75+18=443 - 50 mail in rebate so around 393 after you get your rebate.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] RizwanKhan:
definitely its them ... my local att store told me they have 5 or 6 of them in stock right now and would be more than happy to sell me one now.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] bartimeus:
Would that sign me up for another 2 years?

I want it so bad but I am tempted to see if anything in the way of android hits AT&T in the next few months
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] will6316:
Bitter Sweet for me.

This is my story. after calling many att stores I finally got a store that was willing 2 give it up. Check this out. I had my hand on the box and while he was processing my order he said . youre not eligible for an upgrade till aug 2009. I said what. then asked can i purchase w/o contract. He said no. Bad news people. U can only get this phone as of now with a contract. I told the rep i should me eligible. after investigating more. he found i had i bought and return the tilt back in march come 2 find out the rep never marked it as return she kept as upgrade status. Now they had 2 do a reverse upgrade that takes up 2 24 hrs. so i guess i'll b getting mine 2 morrow.

that ***** should b fired for making me suffer like that. NYC Midtown area

Broadway
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] burr:
I've been trying in the Bay Area but no luck so far. Interesting seeing how someone posted one from Cupertino!

So far, no luck on some stores in Peninsula and several on East Bay.

I should post more. :) Been a member long enough and have been using all the great ROMs!

I thought about getting another WinMo phone but this community is worth it with all the mods! So Fuze it is.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] aruppenthal:
I went into my local ATT Store tonight in Parkersburg WV. They were unboxing the 8 fuzes they just got off the truck. I was able to purchase one. It was a little more expensive than expected. $392 and a $50 rebate.

They told me that the 8 was all they would get for 2 weeks.

Oh and all tilt accesories are half off until sold out. BT headsets are all half off. They said ATT is going to a new type of BT headset.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] btprice2001:
Blurgh! None of the stores in the South Bay Southern California area will sell them until tomorrow. So frustrating!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] adamantypants:
2 weeks :(

I only have 2 possible stores in the Las Vegas area that can sell me one tomorrow. Well, maybe 3. Nobody wants to sell me one today :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] hidden_dragon:
It's the same up here in NorCal so don't feel bad...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] beachboyde:
Yes, I went to my Att store in Rehoboth Beach , Delaware today about 5pm and they got in 5, I was the first one. They're all interested to see how I like it. However, when they opened it up for me and put my sim-card in they were amazed at the screen quality and the quality of the phone in general. I'm just now going to start playing with it. I'll be back later with a update.

Beachboyde

ps. I need to change my signature immeditally
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] sdlopez83:
noe in Li!!! I will call rego park asap.. Thanks broski
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Surelock:
Is this phone only able to be purchased by extending a contract? I can't just go in buy it, full retail?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] c0nn0rxx:
Haha I live in Los Altos, and called that Cupertino store and simply asked if they had any information about the HTC Fuze. My answer, "Uh no."

Wow ahah they better be out tomorrow :P
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] RizwanKhan:
well hopefully this means we can look forward to you cooking for a fuze :) :D ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] beachboyde:
Can buy at regular price, but I did a new contract, even though my contract we not up for renewal, they let me do it. I do however dial with the same stroe all the time. I know you can get it done on a existing contract for a small upgrade fee. But you might have to stand tall to ATT. It would be worth it, and you will go into a new 2 year contract. But can be pruchased without contract at I believe 499.00
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] blackout203:

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] c0nn0rxx:
For all you guys in the Bay Area, I called the Mountain View store and they said they have them in stock, but can't sell until tomorrow. I asked about how many he had, and said, get here early and ask for Rob. Haha at least they're in stock!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] AllTheWay:
I think that is going story for a lot of stores right now. I know I will be at my store tomorrow @ 9am to get mine. Not like a lot of people are going to buy the phone in a town with 3,000 people but you never know.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] g2tl:
Where exactly? 23rd st?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Msingh999:
Damn, I'm not eligible for upgrade until December 15. This sucks. >____>
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] yzf750:
Minnesota got some today. I picked mine up at a corprate ATT store this afternoon. They got 6 and 4 were on hold already. Time to play :) i wasnt due for upgrade till June next year but they let me have it by adding a year on my contract for 349 plus the 50 rebate for final price of 299. time to craigslist the Tilt.
