Waiting on the 8600M to ship. Hopefully in the not so distant future!

I figure it's going to be a while before I get my 8600M. I ordered February 4th of this year. I traded in my 6600M and also paid the balance of my order a few days ago. I wanted to get all that out of the way. I was told 12 to 14 weeks before actual shipping. So, if I am lucky maybe by mid to late May. Having read another post by Michael Walker, Flex Radio is still experiencing supply issues. So, it's quite possible it could be much later than next month.

I ordered a 6800M May 21st of 2024. I received the invoice April 11, 2025 and paid for the radio. In the invoice it states…."Once your payment has been received we will contact you within 5 business days to provide you with a tracking number for your shipment".

So far nothing more from Flex so I am assuming they are still having supply issues.

I bet you will hear from them tomorrow. It's quite possible that they gave their employees a long weekend off for Easter.
