If you're waiting until 10/01 to buy a 4G device on SERO
 
Be aware that you can order an Epic on your SERO line right now but it must be done through sprint.com or telesales. You don't need to activate it until the magic October date... hopefully this will ease the expected surge in orders at that time.

My buddy recently put his TP2 through a box creaser and was looking for a new phone, so I suggested he look into the Epic 4G. I offered to use my upgrade discount since one of my lines was eligible. We ordered the phone at sprint.com and the total came out to $371 - $100 rebate, shipped to and taxed in IL.

We spent a lot of time on the phone trying to activate it on his account. It looks like all those fraudulent insurance claims and phone orders from last year have forced Sprint to lock down the purchased device to the account used to buy it. "Freeing up the ESN" also carries implications with the rebate, 30-day exchange, and manufacturer's warranty, but he didn't care about that lol

My Epic should be here tomorrow.. This will give me lots of time to get to know about the phone instead of learning on the go.....

Geez, don't mean to bring up this up, but I tried last nite calling Sprint telesales & another # I had for SERO acct holders. I spoke to 2 separate people and none of them could confirm the changes coming up on Oct. 1

Can any1 pass along a number where I can call and ask about this ?

I currently am on my old Diamond, but have a new TP2 at home I want to sell and add the extra cash to get an EVO. I don't mind the $20 hike either, so I'm swing for it. I was going to 'droid the TP2, but I like the size of the EVO.

Call *2 from your SERO line and try to get customer service. You will be automatically forwarded to Employee Care which manages SERO accounts as well. I have called twice for unrelated issues and the 10/01 date and details were confirmed each time.
