Thank you for your advice, sorry to hijack the thread.
Long story short, I took the bricked 700wx to a Sprint Corporate store where they tried to reset it, to no avail. They offered me the option to pay a $55 repair bill and they would swap it out for another 700wx. Sounded OK to me cause I was in a bind so after searching the store, they couldn't find one to give me. They told me it was going to be 5 days until they could get another in stock.

I had a little chat with the guy and told him how I've been with Sprint forever and just upped my plan for 2 more years the day before (both true). I guess he felt sorry for me, chatted with the manager and made it happen.

Outstanding service from that gentleman =D>
