I'm still very curious about this. Radioshack won't have a MIR, just an Instant Rebate, correct? So I'll only be paying $199 (plus taxes) when I'm at Radioshack...?

Your better off if you want to get rid of the first line to port that number out and then back. It will cancel the first line and Sprint will then charge you #10 for every month left on the contract. If you do that, get a disposable phone (line virgin wireless phone) and port the number there.

I went through the porting this week on Monday. Took about 12 to 13 hours to port the number out of Sprint and then the next day about 3 to 4 hours to port it back to the new line. I now have that number on a new line with a 2 year contract and $150 upgrade eligibility and the old line is gone.
Well the unfortunate part here is that my number I want the Evo on was just renewed to buy the Hero for my mom. So I'm stuck for another year, lol.
