Does anyone have the latest 411 on this phone? I saw one this weekend but the guy said they havn't set a price yet. I heard Dec 1 for (hofo)release. Anyone have any info?

The phone is major badass

My mom kicked me off of her account, and I have had time to build my credit by getting Credit cards and keeping them paid up. I know I want to come to Sprint but I am stuck between 2 phones. The Nextel Motorola I870 and the Sprint Sanyo 9000. I want to know which one do you guys think I should get.

I am looking for a dependable, durable phone, that has cool features. I am more into coolness than anything. I want the MP3 player and stuff.

The only thing that really tears me apart as of now is the fact the Sprint phones has the TV and Nextel phones doesn't.

What do you guys think??

Is the upgrade program a instant rebate or a mail-in-rebate?

I'm with Cingular right now, and it's okay. I live in Minnesota. And i kinda live in the country, where I get little to no service. And the whole network at Cingular is messed up, 3G, PTT etc. I was just wondering do you get good service execially in the country with Sprint. Because I know that Sprint goes on CDMA technology and Cingular goes on GSM. And I don't travel much, just from Minnesota and to Wisconsin. So just give me your opionion about Sprint's service in Minnesota. Plus cingular's data plans SUCK!! I think Sprint's 3G is faster and cheaper. And with Cingular you can't even get unlimited text. The only reason i went with it is because of rollover, and i don't even use one minutes of it.

i'm w/ t-mobile right now, and i'm thinking about switching. i need to know where sprint is at in terms of reception... i know with the other three it goes like

1. Verizon
2. Cingular
3. T-mobile.

but i'm not familiar with sprint. also... why should i go with sprint? what do they offer?

Does anyone know if Sprint will produce a basic phone with Bluetooth? I think there is a need for those of us who use the phone more as a phone and less for multimedia and would like Bluetooth for the car. I heard the A920 by samsung might have this???

this forum reminds me of an empty field in the country at night.

everytime you enter it all your hear is crickets and that annoying noise.

eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,e et,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,ee t,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet ,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet, eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,e et,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,ee t,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet ,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet,eet, eet. 😲 😛 🙄

even known sprint/nextel fans and consumers are annoying other forums.

please call life back to this forum. so what sprint/nextel has a hard headed son named "partners". that doesn't mean you run away from home and no...

Will the 5600 support power vision service?

I'm looking for a Family Plan, Two Treo 650's with the $10 vision plan.
Questions that the rep could not answer (I think they were new).

1. If you are roaming, does your internet still work?
2. Is the Vision internet really the internet, or a version of T-Zones?
3. Does their 650 have the same problems as Cingulars?
4. Why is their data plan $10 and everyone else charges $45?

It seems too good to be true. I hear bad stories about their coverage.

Sprint: No coverage, bad Customer service
T-Mo: No PDA's, worse customer service
Cingular: $45 data plan, stingy on the minutes.
Verizon: Mercedes Benz? I giess you get what you pay for. I don't have the $ for these guys.

i have just been told end of life on both of them is end of december. i really wanted the 9000. this sucks.

If you go to the Sprint website or any store selling Sprint & Nextel service, you see multiple price plan brochures and you see essentially both services are completely separate (I mean, for obvious reasons). Does anybody see the odds of them completely eliminating (phase out) the Nextel name?

ie: we all know dual-band iDEN/CDMA phones are coming out. Sprint offers ReadyLink as their PTT solution. Do you think when all is said and done, the only remnants of Nextel would be: Sprint w/ Nextel Direct Connect service???

Sprint is the devil and there customer service blows goats.

Just had a customer show me Opera-Mini browser on his 8300. It allows you to view any web page correctly formatted........ANYONE know if i can run this on my 5600? If so, how do i get it?

i am in search of a new phone. i want to put an effort into staying someone organized and professional as i finish my degree and get settled in my business. I really like the Treo 650, but would love to reap all the benefits of a brand new samsung a920 evdo bluetooth music and all. i havent heard anything about treos getting set up with evdo and the music store. anyone have any input and/or advice? thanks

Farwell T-Mobile

After years of “thinking about it”, I finally made the switch to Sprint today. Just took my 6700 off charge and was just thinking about all the calls into T-Mobile over the last year.

Q (November 2004): Are you going to get the Treo 650?
A (Representative): Yes, very soon. I think in a few weeks.

One year later.

Q: Do you have ANY PDA’s?
A: You mean a Blackberry?

Get serious. I feel like a ton of bricks has been lifted off my shoulders. Funny, I was never able to get over one bar at my home. I have “full” bars right now with this new service.

I hope this doesn’t sound like a total T-Mobile slam because they were OK for a few years. They just went down hill over the last year. I had to bail. Good luc...

Does RS do number porting? I want to port a Cingular number over to my Sprint account, under a shared plan. Thanks for the help.

Anybody else getting pitched by Sprint-Nextel telemarketers on their cellphones?

Yesterday, a very nice lady from Nextel cutomer service called (unfortunately busy so I had to say call back later which she didn't) saying that they've noticed in the past five or so billing periods my DC usage has dropped to almost nothing. I explained I haven't really had a need for DC (just between my wife and I) because of what I'm doing now. The company provides me with a Nextel... But, couldn't talk so I was curious to find out what she could offer...

Today, phone call, couldn't answer it but the message was from Sprint this time saying sorry we missed you and will try again later. the message also said something about discounts on this & tha...

First, Anyone have any info on the Moto Q or any other PDA phones coming to Sprint in the near future?

Second, Why does Sprint's phone line-up suck so much?

i have the sprint pcs vision pictures pack. is aim free on it or does it cost?i also have unlimited txt messaging

For those interested I contacted Sprint and was informed that the new Samsung SPH-A920 Phone will be avaliable on line and at stores by the end of November. Looks like a nice phone.
