Otherwise, you may as well just go with the GSM carriers and get one from them, however there are differences in all of the versions. One in particular is that the GSM models lack the headphone jack on the bottom compared to CDMA.
As far as being on Sprint, you have to get the Sprint version, and we already had a long enough thread about getting the price-match, etc. However, that was closed, so go read through that thread for tips because it would be inappropriate to try and start it back up.

Thanks!
I did read through a bit of that thread - I guess people aren't having luck getting even a discount on the TP2 if their original TPs break 5, 6, 7 times?
I guess that being on Sprint I HAVE to go with a Sprint TP2. I have the SERO plan, so I can't afford to go with another carrier, so I guess the Verizon TP2 having a sim unlock code is a moot point for me.
I have a feeling the price match isn't going to work since most of the sales reps should be tipped off by now that the price is only for corporate customers.
Where else besides eBay sells these things?
