Plastic is still on the phone, if you look close, you can see the bubbles too... I talked to the guy over a few emails, I don't question that it was real. If he didn't sell it, I was going to drive the 4 1/2 hours each way to get it.

We've all known that all along that it was not a high end WP7 model but, there really isn't a HIGH END model to start with, unless it's got a 4'3" display or a keyboard, 95% of the specs are the same. 3.8" SLCD along with everything else, it does not look like a "BAD" phone.
Look on XDA, most people who have the Trophy love it. I only wanted it for a 1 year contract (as I know better models will be coming soon) but, I might try to buy it off contract (figure it's around a $400 price point at full price).
Wish they were getting more but, Sprint only has the Arrive on their release model (AT&T had a few) and I don't see them getting another phone any time soon (right away)
EDIT: I wonder how true this is....
