Black market sprint touch pros?
 

I noticed that there are a lot of almost new or new sprint touch pros on the market and very few Verizon branded. I also noticed that the sprint models sell for almost half of the Verizon version. Seems pretty strange that the superior model would be selling cheaper.

I recently bought a sprint "almost new" phone off of craislist and I went to register it with HTC and they won't accept the S/N. Sprint did confirm it was a clean ESN.

Anybody else find this strange?

how much do you want for the sprint one (assuming you want to sell)?

I haven't yet given up on trying to get verizon to put it back on thier network. If they won't then I will sell and probably go to ATT and get the FUZE or wait for the new HTC to come out in June / July.

no, this is perfectly normal. you can only register unbranded devices with htc.

hmm, i've never been able to register my sprint phone, but I do see that the site say's they now do operator-branded devices too..
if it's important to you, email them.
