I imagine as long as you have a plan that has data and text included you'd be safe, right?
I wasn't planning to utilize the rebate, as I'm not eligible anyhow, but I'd like to keep my nice retention plan that I've had for some time, and it has data and vision included at $0.00 so I imagine I can still get the phone at full price, and just do an ESN swap then, correct?

I wouldn't count on it..... There were many people who tried to do the same thing with the instinct: Buy the phone full price at best buy then do an ESN switch. I heard they were forced to either switch phones or Sprint would cut off their service. Believe me, I am in the market for a more multimedia oriented phone and I tried EVERYTHING to get that phone on SERO. Even the manager of the local sprint store was going to do it for me until one of his minions piped up ans said "Doesn't he need a SEP plan for the instinct"? Needless to say I was pissed off. I hope they don't try to pull this S hit with the Diamond, or I might slap the store manager. I would even be willing to pay full price if they let me keep my SERO plan, for the diamond or instinct. Its too bad sprint has to play games, because they are not subsidizing the phone for me, so it shouldn't matter what cell phone I have on that certain plan as long as I keep paying the bills. Boy, these cell phone companies are just out for your money......
