Uggh. Want. I’ve actually thought about leaving VZW for this phone. I signed up to be emailed when this phone comes out about a month ago. They sent me an email last week saying that it’s not out yet but coming soon. So I’d expect it soon. Within a month maybe? ---

I had NO intentions of getting a new phone… then my screen shattered yesterday… now I might be upgrading. we’ll see. I still have a brand new mogul as a back up… problem is, its in a box somewhere in my apartment in palm beach… I’m in rochester and will be in orlando all this week. I might just bite the bullet. I better not have to lose my current plan. I, like the OP have a pretty tasty plan that I dont want to let go of yet. Otherwise, id own an Iphone or a verizon phone already. Ughh… ---

So its coming out saturday, Im thinking of upgrading from my centro. What the prices through sprint??? Im a “preferred” costumer, I have had sprint 11 years now so I can upgrade whenever. I know there are deals when you sign a new contract. ---

299 with 100 rebate… so 199 if you sign a 2 year contract… also you only have 3 options for plans… ~450 minutes… 900 minutes… or unlimited plan… They told me they wouldnt let me keep my sero plan. so i made an insurance claim and picked up the HTC diamond… im happy, i reflashed it, works awesome, only issue is i can literally watch the battery drain. :lol: ---

had sprint for 3-4 years now maybe a bit more than that… got on the sero plan back then and slowly upgraded for more minutes, just recently they gave me a 90 minute bump up from 1250… just cuz i said i wanted a “few” more minutes… Its a good plan, they bug me sometimes to upgrade to the unlimited, and eventually im sure i will have to bite… I have a discount from where i work/worked before, it helps with 25% too… Hence why i still have sprint… soooo cheap, sooo many options. 🙂 ---

I’m still rocking the original sprint SERO plan here. 500 minutes, $30 per month, unlimited data, nights at 7pm, weekends. Plus a 27 percent corporate discount, brings me to $26.60 per month after taxes. ---
