Does any one know as to when these devices are likely to hit the market? Samsung Galaxy S5 is rumoured to be compatible with this band - is it true ?

HTC M8 is the only device commercially available that supports this band.

There are rumours of an additional upcoming S5 variant that supports this band.

Over the coming 6 to 12 months more devices should be popping up all the time, Then fingers crossed it should become the norm

Telstra have also announced a couple of dongles (ZTE + Netgear) and a WIFI hotspot (Huawei) that will be on the market before the end of the year across the ditch for band 28 use.
