Actually, I started off with a ppc 6600, it died, blackscreen of death after about a year, they had none on hand so they had to replace it with a 6700. Same thing happened to that thing and it was replaced with a mogul. Basically, when the new model comes out, the old one is discontinued, but it's just a matter of how long it takes for them to run out of stock of the old one. If your phone is completely inoperable, they'll replace it with a brand new one within half an hour, and if they dont have the same one, but have the new, next generation model, that's what they give you. If your messed up phone can still make and recieve calls, they make you wait 3 days for a replacement which, by the way, is quite insultingly a used refurbished piece of junk!

So my question really is, bout how long do we suppose it takes them to rid their stock of the old model when the new one comes out? I think the new price of the Touch, at $99 on the sprint site must secretly be a clearance price to get rid of it by the time the Touch Diamond is out...

You're a real lucky guy because here we don't get a replacement of a new type of phone. I had the 6700 and the 6800 and the Sprint store did what ever they could to keep giving me the same phone operational. I got a new one, but I never lucked out and got a better model phone .

After thinking about what I said I looked at Sprint's website and the Mogul's price has yet to drop from the price I bought it for and it's beyond outdated. The Touch Diamond is even cheaper, so someone in Sprint's marketing staff needs to think this over. It's like selling a Pentium 4 at 1,000 and the core 2 Extreme also at a $1,000.
