Still, i have a broken mogul that they keep telling to take a touch for, and im just going to hold out. Im thinking that this phone will probably cost about 600 USD new, so i have to wish that i can get something in return for my mogul. And if not, i'll just swap to the treo and hit ebay for the extra doe

yes but big difference being the apache -> mogul wasnt THAT great a jump in hardware which is he expensive part. You got a little extra ROM space (256 vs 12
and a 2mp vs 1.3 camera, thats about it. SAme wifi, same screen, little slimmer, same RAM etc.
The mogul -> Raphnel would be a MUCH bigger jump in hardware and pricing if this has a VGA screen which would be the most expensive component.
Id venture to guess Sprint would be pushing a 800w as a swap in that case since its a cheaper phone for them and more comparable to the Mogul. Id guess the Raphnel will be more than $600 full price at launch. Also realize they dont swap new ones for the old model until MONTHS after launch. Very few people got Moguls for 6700's until id say Oct-Nov which was months after the Mogul launched. they alwasy have stock left to use as swaps of the older model.
Just get your mogul fixed/swapped for another mogul and just sell it when the time comes. This is still rumors and could be 8+ months away. Even for the treo, dont expect a swap out. Theyll stil have plenty of moguls in stock since they are different manufacturers and the mogul wont be EOL.
And the prob said take a touch since recently the moguls were out of stock for ROM updating to the GPS/rev A rom but im sure they have them now. Plenty of people report getting theirs swapped daily.
