I've been keeping a keen eye on Sprints stock price, if this keeps up and Sprint's ability to maintain profitability remains low another corporation is going to swoop in and gobble Sprint whole. And you know what happens after consolations. Less innovation and eventual higher prices. So please keep the health of the company in mind when you're on the phone screaming for credits and rebates. It may come back on all of us in the end.

I disagree. Sprint or any other company does not give anything away for free. Every decision they make is toward the outcome of a profit. If they can profit by selling this phone for $199.99 to some lucky customers then they can still make a profit by selling it for that price to everyone. The fact that several members have gotten the lower price by haggling is proof that it's a fair market price.
Indeed, it is Sprint who is nickle and diming its customers by charging a higher price for those not lucky enough to stumble upon this thread. That is unethical in my opinion.
