How can you compare a car to a phone lol. Sprint knows that there are people like us, here at PPC geeks that actually read press releases and stay up to date about releases. This isn't the first time they released the phone via internet and telesales first. You act as if they aren't releasing them in stores yet which isn't the case. They release via telesales for those who want the phone first and release in the stores when the have sufficient inventory. And this damn sure isn't the first time they haven't advertised a phone so i don't even know why you mentioned that. How many commercials have you seen for your touch pro, the touch diamond, or any other windows mobile device launched on sprint. The answer is a big fat 0
