im sure they have had the release date long ago to make plans for advertising and strategy long before now or have constant communication with there suppliers on every aspect of supply and demand, thing is supply and demand goes both ways - demand and supply, people research what there next 2 year commitment will be, those who are choosing there new phone dont want comming soon or left in the dark, would you ?.
at&t etc in the us, and what i have read of other contries, had a contract release date, never o2, and a contract is a big commitment.
any way i recieved a txt from o2 to be told - sorry we're out of stock at the moment, we are expecting more on 12-dec-13 we'll text you again as soon as we have a delivery date.
i received that on tue night, just seeing that date put my mind at ease, so the air strike and ground attack was put on hold if i hear nothing else this week tho' then its back on, when you ask, comming soon lol
