Locked in a footrace with AT&T’s Fuze to become the first US national carrier to launch a variant of the HTC Touch Pro, Sprint has declare that folks can start ordering the QWERTY smartphone this week from “chosen national retailers,” making good on a promise made at CTIA last month. That’s not Truly as cool as a full-scale launch, but at least we’ll start to get ‘em in the wild in the next few days — meanwhile, a more full-scale, fanfare-filled launch is planned for November 2 when the Touch Pro is made available online, via phone, and in all Sprint stores. Any Touch Diamond buyers feeling lingering regrets right about at this time?

Bad news, Sprint users. That HTC Touch Pro you’ve probably been waiting for won’t be ready for your soft, delicate hands on Sunday. According to an undisclosed contact at the carrier, the outfit is expected to “slightly delay [the] launch of the Touch Pro by HTC to ensure it has adequate inventory in all channels before making the device commercially available.” If you’re looking for specifics, we’re told that consumers can expect the handset “in chosen national retailers by the end of the month and then in all Sprint sales channels (including online at www.sprint.com and Sprint stores) by early November.” It’s not that next month is really that far away, it’s just that next month isn’t on Sunday. Bugger.
