You hit the nail on the head. Sprints phones simply aren't as hot as any of the other carriers, and the phones they have, other carriers have too. My friend has a Moto Clique with MOTOBLUR, and what does Sprint have? The Big Bulky Silver Brick Moment.
Granted, I've played with the Moment at least 4 times, and I must say the software IS nice and speedy, and the apps for android are cool (The Sprint rep was showing me his Digital Compass and Police Siren App), but the Moment just doesn't LOOK cool, especially with that weird alien looking keyboard (That does type well, but nevermind that). Verizon's Droid is also hotter.
Point blank (I could go on and on), I'm on SERO $30. If I upgrade to anything, it'll be $70 ($60 if I go with EPRP, or $50 with recurring credit), but with T-Mobile, for the same price ($70), I can get the Nokia N900....I mean, come on Sprint! They'll be getting the HD2 as well. I mean, come ON Sprint!
LOL I'm just venting because I don't want to waste my upgrade on the Moment (as nice a phone internally as it is), yet I'm tired of my Diamond and there's nothing really to upgrade to. :Sigh:
I guess I'll buy a Blackberry Tour off ebay with Blackberry Buy Up ($10) and ride that out till next year.

Sprints biggest problem in my opinion, is their toys arent as shiny as the other carriers. What is preventing Sprint from launching better devices? T-mobile, Verizon, and Att all have some very nice handsets released, and are releasing better ones soon, while Sprint has nothing concrete in the near future. This is a major reason why they are loosing so many customers.
I am waiting to re-up my contract until some better phones come out...Pssst, Sprint.....Htc Dragon?
The one thing that might have me jump ship, is this mysterious google phone, and the whitespace technology thing. Other than that, I am pretty satisfied with Sprint.
