We have Sprint because my hubby needs his two way for work. I'm supposed to be getting my Blackberry Curve this Friday. Maybe I should wait?

I been everywhere man, I been everywhere!

I have sprint, and its okay. Where I live the coverage is better than what it was, but there is still some spots where it drops out. But the phones are great!

I came in here to troll, but that phone is a beast.

I agree with everyone else who says that nobody uses sprint.

Sounds like I'll be getting this phone when it comes out, seeing as how I live in Boston, my fam lives in Minneapolis, and might be moving to Chicago soon (one of the next cities to get 4g).

Please show me this plan.

I ended up getting a rumor touch. Before all you geeks start hammering me for it, I use the phone to 1) talk 2) text. The internet and GPS are nice to have, but my whole life is not my phone.

You can upgrade at anytime you want. I have. I have a Curve 8330 now, but thinking of jumping to the Evo. Say goodbye to the iPhone.

Is there going to be a 4g surcharge?

If so count me out.

Kiss your plan goodbye if you wanna go with this or any Android phone on Sprint. SERO plans aren't compatible and they are going to force you to pay more.

In any case...that phone is absolutely sick looking. Should be interested to see what comes out in response to this later this year. Between the Incredible and this...HTC will be atop the cell phone world for a little while. I wouldn't be surprised though if they lose that top spot by Christmas.

Actually I have the SERO family plan and it still comes out to 30 a month for me and it's the upgradeable plan with the any mobile anytime.

Right, and if you upgrade to something like the Pre or an Android phone...Sprint makes you switch to the Everything Plus Data plans. If it's just an individual on the account, the minimum plan is 500 minutes, any mobile any time, unlimited text, unlimited data for $59.99. If there's two people on the account, the plan is 1600 minutes, any mobile any time, unlimited text and unlimited data for $109.99. Each additional line is $14.99.

So like I said...you would have to upgrade your SERO plan to get this phone.

If this phone is $199 I will be switching from Verizon. Also It looks like Sprint will give me a $100 credit for switching.

Latest rumor is June 6th release, It'll be a 1st day buy for me unless Palm announces a new phone.
