you cats kill me with the sprints better stuff. I had to drop sprint/nextel as an option as I like to use my cell phone in areas other than downtown. No matter how you feel about the cosmetics of the phone (I don't wear mine around my neck), its all about the network for me. I'm on verizon because I can make a friggin phone call. period. GOod to hear the XV6800 is almost here!!!

Thanks Verizonguy

Every time I see a Sprint customer post on here, I picture a Paris Hilton-type person carrying a Chihuahua in their purse.
To the "Sprint's 6800 looks better" folks: Ever heard of a case? Not just a pouch either. I mean fully functional protection. I have yet to OWN a PPC that wasn't snuggled in leather. Oh, and I'll chose company reliability over plastic coloring any day. My last phone was cheerfully activated ON CHRISTMAS MORNING by customer service.
Also, I'm looking at three bars while sitting here in a concrete-enclosed production factory, located in the middle of farmland.

So this to you ;-P nyaaaa

Is that before or after the new every 2?

Im fairly certain 499 means full price without any discounts/rebates/contracts

499.99 on 2 yr, before any rebates or discounts... 619.99 full retail price.

Are you freaking serious? There is no way in Hell that phone costs even a fraction of that to produce. But you know what? Thats why I will stick with my 6700. Myapologies for being incorrect and I stand corrected (and shocked)
