Sprint’s Red HTC Touch Diamond launching on September 2nd, maybe?

Here’s a quick recap on the current Sprint Touch Diamond situation (HTC Victor): the device looked to be ahead of schedule at the end of last week and we heard internally that we would see a launch by this Thursday (August 28th). The original information we had received put the launch date on September 2nd, but then PhoneArena got wind that we were all wrong and that ‘the launch has been pushed back a few weeks’.

$Sprint\'s Red HTC Touch Diamond launching on September 2nd, maybe?$

The current consensus puts the launch date back on September 2nd assuming we don’t see any further developments. With the product manual leaked earlier today and the device confirmed to be released in Red, the Sprint Touch Diamond launch is becoming quite the build up. We also have confirmation that the device will remain at $299 on a 2 year contract or $549 no contract.

We will keep you posted with any further developments.

Update Sept 10th: Today Sprint issued a Press Release outlining several device launches but most importantly they confirmed the September launch of the Touch Diamond and October launch of the Touch Pro. According to the Press Release, the HTC Touch Diamond will be available beginning in September. It will cost $249.99 with a two-year contract and after a $100 mail-in rebate. HTC Touch Pro will be available Oct. 19 for $299.99 with a two-year contract and after a $100 mail-in rebate. It looks like Sprint will take the cake as the first US carrier to launch either of these devices unless we see At&t bump up their release date unexpectedly.
