Probably will just be a USB C cable.....

that sucks :-( And I hear calling Digital River doesn't do much good. CSRs just say to be patient and wait a few days.
Couple more days and it might be worth a reorder. You'll likely end up with two because as @jamezr says the cancel doesn't likely work. But can always return one. Sucks that digital river is so crappy.
I placed a new order, silver version this time. It went through immediately, and paypal recognized it. It even had a different name on the CC. Already cancelled the old order.
I think there might have been a problem with the original payment processing. We will see what happens .
[doublepost=1463077033][/doublepost]Funny story....
Five minutes after placing the new order I get a fedex notification....
From Brightpoint North America, Planfield Indiana.
Ring any bells?

LOL!!! There are stories like that on XDA too. So are you going to try to cancel your second order? Likely it has already gone to fulfillment and past the point of no return.
At least you will be able to compare colors

I got a call from FedEx for delivery tomorrow. I guess to notify me it needs to be signed for, the earphones not the 10.
I am getting the 10 from tmo when it is available.

It's here! Now just gotta set it up.
Duuuuude. Very nice. Can't wait to hear your thoughts between this and the S7E.

I'm so tempted to JOD this sucker. I mean, it's why I got JOD in the first place, right?!
But I'll wait for further feedback from the folks here, particular those who have the S7E to compare.
First impressions.
Build quality is top notch. Feels great in the hand. The screen is very nice too.
Got a little warm going through setup. Restoring my apps from the s7e.
Better in hand than the S7E?

Yeah mine got very warm on setup - it's fine after other than when turbo charging it gets v.warm too.
Black / silver looks very attractive too.
Different rather than necessarily better. It's more like a cross between the Moto X style / nexus 6p in feel in the hand.
Meanwhile my phone is enjoying the view by truck from Indiana to Oregon. First stop, Minnesota.
It's different....glass versus metal. I love what they did with the home button / FP scanner. You don't have to push it to wake it. Not a fan of the button placements on the right side. The volume and wake buttons are on the same side. So when grabbing the phone my fingers are on the buttons.
But overall very satisfied with the HTC 10. BTW I got the silver.
Crazy that North America was able to get black front with silver. I for some reason thought it was white bezels, but seems that is the rest of the world. Nice combination.
Yeah my import was from HK and they only had White / Silver or White / Gold option when I ordered so I went with the Silver. I would have probably have gone black/silver if I had the option at the time, but in hindsight I like the white
Yeah I'm left handed so maybe why that hasn't been a problem for me.
I thought they would have been an issue with the Z5 also, but weren't for me.
The FP scanner really is very good on the 10, I would actually like to see Apple go this capacitive home button route and maybe incorporate force feedback into the capacitive button.
Yeah, I got used to them pretty quickly on the 6P. Actually I was thinking before I edited my post, why do we even need a power button anymore?
Does the home button launch Google Now? I could see a capacitive button getting in the way with triggering that too much possibly depending on how you hold the phone.
I really like the home button FP scanner functionality. It reminds me of the 6P too.
At the moment I prefer physical buttons. Capacitive button I have to be careful not to inadvertantly touch when in landscape and on-screen buttons take up screen real estate. I'm hoping a form a 3d touch comes to android phones and they start using that along the capacitive buttons, so it doesn't matter if you touch it, they won't activate until you hard-press. Then we get best of both worlds.Yes. I'm all for everybody moving away from physical home buttons.
That'll be cool. I could see Apple getting there first with their 3D touch and the simulated haptic feedback found in their macbooks.
Yup, I do too. But hopefully Android OEMs get going on this too. I wonder this could also be done with the power and volume buttons? Then no more moving parts.
Looks like I am joining on the HTC 10 party too. I can't believe it either because I said HTC was done before the 10 was announced. Then, I was pleasantly surprised.
I look forward to the DAC audio, boom sound, QHD LCD panel HTC uses, near Nexus experience, the newer and improved FP scanner, etc. If I like it, I will return mine, wait for a price drop and buy it. HTCs are notorious for tanking in value pretty quick. I love my S7 Edge a lot, but for the software hassles Samsung has, it is scary what the future may or may not hold.

$100 off, free gift, uh oh protection. Possibly around $200 off in value. There might be price drops close to that in 6 months or so. But then we are close to the Nexus release. I think it is a pretty nice price right now.
