I tried to order a DIALOG from my local dealer last week. He was very keen to do that and also wants one for himself but it's not clear whether the box is covered by the same bizarre exclusive agreement as the Phantom.

I just checked the english Devialet site and its not possible to order a Phantom there yet.

It appears on the german Devialet site at €299 but no mechanism to buy one as far as I could see.

Devialet have changed the message on the English Phantom page to say that it will be possible to order one on-line from December 23rd. So it's looking positive.

My dealer has today confirmed my order for a DIALOG (they're £249) so now all I have to do is enjoy Christmas and wait - In their press pack Devialet said they would be shipping from 15th January Smile

So today my (UK) dealer contacted me to say that he would not be able to supply a Dialog until May at the earliest and suggested that I should order from the Devialet site...

He's a fairly recent convert to Devialet (this year) but is very keen on their products and has sold a decent number of systems. I can't help but think that Devialet have made a serious mistake by not keeping their existing dealers properly informed of their plan for the Phantom launch and sales roll-out. Its very easy for a dealer to guide prospective customers towards alternative products if they so wish... Still, as I said to him, I don't think he will lose many Phantom sales to Harrods or Devailet on-line as most people will want a proper (ideally home) demo first.

EDIT: Just to add that I tried to order a Dialog from the Devialet site but was sent an e-mail saying that they will send the code allowing me to do this sometime in the future...

Phil, I've just received an invitation (having asked for one last week). So yours may not take too long to arrive.

If you're in a hurry I'd be happy to swap my code for yours, assuming they're not tied to our e-mail addresses. PM me if you'd like to try that.

I Just got an invitationcode and ordered a Dialog. I payed in advance and I just got a reply that they will send the order after January, the 21th.

It was also possible to order the Phantom in both varieties, which I did not do. The 'Branch' stand and the Remote for the Phantom couldn't be ordered as yet. Neither was there any information about the prices of both.

By the ordernumber it would seem that I am number 31 to order. Well, I'll drink a lot of tea and I'll be waiting patiently. Cheers, ChM

Hey Thumb that's exceptionally kind of you Smile but I just logged into e-mail and saw that I have now received a code - so they're not so difficult to get after all Smile. Signing off in a semi-inebriated state after a very pleasant evening at our neighbours house....

EDIT: OK, I entered my code and tried to order a Dialog and the site won't let me - with no explanation. Will try tomorrow when I'm more motivated Sad
