Retailers blamed both T-Mobile for underestimating its popularity and HTC the Taiwanese manufacturer of T-Mobiles MDA range for failing to meet demand.
T-Mobile said that sales had exceeded forecasts and that more handsets had been ordered and delivered. "The problem should now be resolved" said a spokesperson.
HTC was unavailable for comment.
One independent dealer said: "T-Mobile still hasnt sorted it out. There was a mix up with HTC and it delivered much too few. All T-Mobiles smartphones have been difficult to get hold of."
High street multiples and T-Mobile direct retailers both on the high street and online are also out of stock.
A staff member at T-Mobiles Lewisham branch said: "There is a worldwide shortage at the moment. We are waiting for HTC to deliver them. We have got a waiting list of 10 to 12 people at the moment."
Luke at T-Mobile in Macclesfield said: "We had 10 two days ago we have only got one left now and there is no sign of new stock. The whole of T-Mobile is awaiting delivery from the manufacturer."
A salesman at the T-Mobile store near Blackfriars in London said: "No one in the supply channel has stock of that device. No T-Mobile stores have got it anywhere. Either HTC hasnt made enough to meet demand or T-Mobile hasnt ordered enough. We have only received two in the past two weeks despite putting orders in."
A flurry of activity around T-Mobiles Flext tariffs has caused all sorts of stock issues since March. Dealers have complained of shortages of Nokia 6111 sliders Sony Ericsson W810is and T-Mobile SIMs.

The deal announced last week involves a combined cash and shares offer valuing Virgin Mobile at £950 million. The new company will offer fixed and mobile telephony pay-TV services and Internet connectivity something NTL CEO Steve Birch has labelled a "four-play" offering.
Both Virgin and NTL executives claim that consumers will warm to the prospect of one bill for all four services and that churn can be reduced. NTL chairman Jim Mooney predicted churn would be reduced by one percentage point for each additional service on the bill.
Virgin Mobile will see managerial changes once the deal has been finalised although no details have been revealed.
A Virgin Group executive will sit on the board of the new company unofficially dubbed Virgin TV.
"A change in roles is in the melting pot" said Alexander. "There are going to be lots of changes in the next phase of the business."
Alexander also expects expansion in the new company´s channel to market although he declined to go into any details. Nor could he confirm that independent dealers would see the same benefits as Virgin Mobile´s multiple partners.
"We´ll be expanding the number of our points of sale" said Alexander. "We´ve been expanding in waves. As we start to sell more convergent services we will be looking at expanding them to our existing channels." However he conceded that not all services would be available through all channels.
"Our channels are still not as wide as we´d like and we are still looking towards independent dealers" he added. "We´ve talked about the possibility of an SME offering maybe a converged product which offers fixed and mobile telephony together."
NTL will rebrand once the two companies have merged and will pay Virgin Group £9 million a year for the next 30 years for the rights to use the Virgin brand.

"Providers and retailers who join up will have immediate daily access to hundreds of thousands of the country´s most savvy consumers" claimed head of mobile Robert Kenley.

GNER said the move was in response to public demand. It started to trial WiFi in 2003 on 10 trains running between London and Leeds Newcastle Glasgow and Edinburgh and now claims "several thousand passengers" use the service each month.
GNER CEO Christopher Garnett said: "We are keen to bring the benefits to all GNER passengers as quickly as we can. It turns train travel time into productive time."
First Class passengers can access the service free of charge. Standard Class users pay between £2.95 and £9.95 for 30-180 minutes´ access.

At Nokia´s annual general meeting in Helsinki last month chairman and CEO Jorma Ollila said: "In addition to continuous growth in voice other industries like music and digital imaging are quickly becoming integral."
Nokia previously predicted the world market would grow 10 per cent in 2006. However "strong subscriber growth" and increased sales in Asia and Africa suggest the market could grow a further five per cent this year.
Nokia predicts 80 per cent of the next billion subscribers will come from Asia and Africa.

The service can be downloaded for free from the emoze web site to any compatible mobile phone. It gives users access to home and work e-mails as well as Personal Information Manager data such as contact information and diary dates.
Commenting on the launch Emoze vice-president of marketing and business development Doron Cohen said:
"More than 50 million wireless PDAs and smartphones capable of receiving push e-mail were sold in 2005 and another 80 million will be sold this year alone."
However he noted that there are only around 10 million subscribers to push-email services and most of them are limited to employees of Fortune 1000 companies.
"Emoze is targeted at the rest of the world" he claimed. "It covers hundreds of millions of potential users currently untouched by all other solutions."
The technology works with any Microsoft Mobile or Symbian device with a GPRS or other data connection with Microsoft Outlook and POP3 online e-mail services such as Hotmail Yahoo! and Gmail.
It will support Palm devices and MacOS and Linux platforms within months claimed the company.

Harrison assumes his position immediately. De Bezieux is stepping down from the board to begin his new role as chairman and chief executive of Virgin Mobile France.

According to Britain´s police forces the number of fixed penalty notices issued to drivers caught using mobiles on the road has risen from 80000 in 2004 to more than 140000 last year.
To clamp down on the illegal use of handsets in cars the £30 fine introduced in December 2003 will rise to £60 next year. Drivers will also incur three points on their driving licence in an attempt to deter them.
The law was introduced after research showed using a handheld mobile phone quadrupled the risk of having a collision.

"The W700i builds on the legacy of the first Walkman phone the W800i" said Sony Ericsson head of sales and marketing Jan W¤reby.
He added: "This phone will appeal to anyone who wants a quality music player in their phone for occasional listening."
The phone available in titanium-gold comes with a memory stick PRO duo for extra storage. It comes with 256MB of memory equivalent of 6CDs´ worth of music and will be in-store in the next couple of months.

Both Dextra Solutions and Data Select have been notified of Nokia audits in recent weeks as dealers and distributors have warned that the market has been flooded with fake Nokia accessories.
Nokia director of communications Mark Squires explained that it was a general stock audit to ensure that distributors adhered to correct stock levels stock processing and stock flow as well as to verify the authenticity of the stock they carry.
"The audit is intended to make sure that they are doing their jobs properly as well as to check for counterfeit stock" he said.
"Distributors have to make sure they maintain a certain level of stock so that the industry isn´t starved."
Squires said it was a random audit of its distribution partners.
Eric White marketing director at Data Select parent company Phones International said: "Nokia is looking for counterfeit products. It doesn´t mention that on the audit letter but one of the elements of the audit is to search out fake stock."
Dextra Solutions CEO Mark Ormerod said:
"We welcome the Nokia audit and any move that prevents counterfeiting and helps the Nokia brand and the industry´s credibility. We have processes in place to ensure that counterfeit stock does not get into our supply chain."
Unique Distribution marketing manager Graham Jelfs said: "We´re aware that there are problems with counterfeit Nokia products.
"We are doing our best to support Nokia in any way we can and ensure that such products don´t come into our supply chain."
The quantity of fake stock has increased as counterfeiters have become more sophisticated and policing has become more relaxed.
Go Mobile managing director Iain Humphrey said: "I have never found it anything but a problem. Nokia seems to have relaxed lately and it is time it got tougher. There are too many fake accessories in the market."
Elite managing director Ajay Gokani said: "There is so much out there. The quality is so good now. This is a good move. When we buy Nokia stock off its partners we want to be sure that we don´t get caught out."
According to Gokani Nokia used to offer a verification process of stock through its Nokia service centres but withdrew the service six months ago.
