I am going next week to pick up my new Pre and was curious if it would be better to buy it from BB or the Sprint store.. At Sprint I am going to need to send in a $100 mail in rebate however at BB it is automatically $100 cheaper... Is there a substantial difference in the tax charged though...

Hello everyone, I was thinking of switching from Verizon to Sprint to get the Pre. I am just worried about Sprint loosing the Pre come Jan. 2010. Is it worth the switch? Is Sprint better than Verizon? Any help or opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Scott

Hey.. So I think I have decided to buy myself a Pre, but like a kid waiting for Christmas I can wait no longer! I have been dealing with my non-charging Treo for the last couple of months waiting to get a new phone... My Sprint contract is available for a full upgrade on August 1, 2009.. Do any...

In recent weeks, the Senate Commerce Committee has been holding hearings about handset exclusivity. That’s when a phone maker (like Apple) offers a particular model (like the iPhone) to a carrier (like AT&T) exclusively for a period of time (like five years). Come to think about it, that...

Sprint Nextel will offer a tri-mode phone compatible with CDMA, WiFi and WiMAX and may expand 4G coverage to cities not previously disclosed, a spokesperson told Unstrung. The new phone provide a mix of CDMA coverage and high data speeds where WiMAX is available. Analysts also believe this upcoming...

Today the WiMAX Forum announced that it has begun the certification processes for 2.3GHz mobile WiMAX in the 5/10MHz and 8.75MHz channels. Mobile WiMAX is being certified in three separate bands around the world, including 2.3GHz, 2.5GHz and 3.5GHz. The 2.3GHz bands will be used mostly in Indian,...

It is gratifying to see that the leviathans of mobile telecommunications in the United States are finally drawing the attention of regulators and Congress. Exclusivity contracts, with which the Big Four cellphone companies lock in the hottest new phones, are a good place to start looking. But...

Hey, does anyone know if I can get a rebate on a phone purchased from ebay? If so, where can I get the form?

With Cincinnati Bell my current cell phone carrier. I had a phone go Bad and was able to just add insurance at that point to get it fix. I didn't have to carry the insurance on the phone the whole time. ( i didn't have insurance on the phone before it went bad) I had to keep the insurance from that...

hello guys, i received my first bill today i there is a surcharge fee for over $15. Nobody mention this when i got my sprint account setup, the statement says surcharges are not taxes wtf ? any way to get rid of this bull crap ?

At Sprint.com under "View latest bill" I used to have that option and now I can't find it. Anybody know if it's gone or am I just missing it? I used to use it 0':

When I log into the sprint.com/sero website and provide the credentials, I see this: "Because of unprecedented demand, the Palm Pre is not yet available to Everything PlusSM Referral Program shoppers." Does this mean I cannot BUY the phone online or does this mean I cannot apply this plan...

Is it unreasonable of me to be angry that Sprint is requiring a move to the Simply Everything plan in order to get the upgrade for a new phone? I've got an old plan and moving to SEP would cost me $10/month for the exact same thing I have only 400 less minutes. I know I can go $99 for all in...

For those Sprint customers who use iGoogle to manage their day lives, a coworker told me about the Sprint widget/gadget. It shows your account activity, minutes used of total, breakdown by phone number, billing information, total data used, text used, provides a form to send an SMS text...

In my efforts to buy a Pre, I’ve had two terrible recent run-ins with the customer service that has made me almost leave Sprint on more than one occasion. First, in calling to find out when my upgrade eligibility came of age, the first sprint employee I talked to told me that I was actually...

I'm, and m wife's are getting no texts in NYC. Anybody before I call Sprint. The NYC coverage is pissing me off.

Hello everyone, If anyone here is a sprint customer, and would like to cut back on their costs without loosing any features, or minutes but actually possibly gaining new features such as free texting, free power vision/bis, or getting your nights and weekends bumped up to 6pm for free go check...

Do u think the phone is worth it at nearly full price?

(or another US network) I'm sorry, but people keep making excuses for AT&T, and I don't by it. More people, then on any other US carrier, use data on Sprint then other carriers. I mean out of 50M customers sprint has, a bigger precentage of people use data then on, say, AT&T. And it's sad that...

I come from an iphone and blackberry I also had the touch pro for at&t and for some reason I can't seem to browse the internet on the pre at the same time. Does sprint not offer this service?
