I would be so heart broken and furious and would probably give up and boycott meizu in future.

lol, come on, this isn't JW's attempt for anything.. it's just a user expressing his concerns.

As for any possible further delays, I would say that it's not likely at this point. But even if it happens it's not because JW wishes it, you know? Technological development is hard and full of unforeseen problems, and thus unforeseen delays. This has already been debated over and over.

Let's just wait and see.. the 15th July is not that far.

PS: I believe the 15th July is actually just the date when they open registration for the alpha model.

I agree I think the 15th is when the "registration" begins but still I've been very patient like many others. It's the fact that they keep promising dates that they never fulfill so yes I think some of us are a little annoyed.

Not quite sure either but it seems to me to be a buffer for another disappointment. Then again i could be wrong.

I'm not so sure about the 15th just being for registration. I remember reading on here that the alpha models and I think most of the beta models were going to be given to members who are most known and respected on the chinese bbs. So they already know who they are going to be offering these models to. Unless the 15th is when these people will find out about it and say weather they want one or not. If that's the case I don;t see why that was announced as a date at all to be honest as it would have nothing to do with the normal user and could have been simply emailed to those users.

All i'm saying is that something better be coming on the 15th and it very well better be astonishing news!!

Yes,I remember,but just like iriver G10,it also appeared on 2006 Barcelona 3GSM,even Prince Andrew handed on it,so what?it never official announced,too.

SteveMB93 · 07-08-2008

Is the iRiver going to have a beta?

DusL · 07-08-2008

Lol what does it matter whether it is official or not?

This really is because there's nothing else to talk about.

@below:
OMGROFLHEXXORS - this counts as news?! Most funny thing I've seen today.

LOL!

Seriously now, they start their "news" saying that "There’s some commotion over the Meizu forum". First this is a not "the Meizu forum", and second... what kind of commotion is that, in a 2 pages thread?

I can only think that either PMP Today are desperate for something to post, or they're just completely idiots.

EDIT: to be honest these "news" have made my day. I laughed my ass off :D
EDIT2: I was rude in calling PMPToday "idiots" and I appologise for that. What I meant was that IMO, they're out of their mind for posting something like this as news.
