Seems like a scam. The website is not official Sprint. The logo in the above right goes nowhere. Steer clear.

You always look at the last server name before the suffix. In this case, bluefish.SPRINT.com

It is an official sprint site. Bluefish is their network management affiliate.

Sprint has said nothing officially BUT I have seen printed Sprint material saying the 28th of August AND the 2nd of September AND Mid-September. I have yet to have seen any Sprint stuff saying the 5th or the 14th or any other day so everyone can just stuff it and stfu until the phone comes out. We all want it, just wait for it.

I agree. I'm pretty sick of all the speculation myself, I only join in when I get official documents. All this speculation is lame and most of it based on garbage. Originally, it was the 2nd. They pushed it to the 14th. Thats it. I don't care if your sister's normal palm reader was sick and the fill in palm reader foresaw a touchpro/diamond dual release date on baby jesus's birthday, hence, bringing the apocalypse. For me, unless I see it on official Sprint documents, that are sent out to us, I don't believe anyone or say anything. It's just a shame that they told us that we won't have them in the stores right away, we will only be able to order them. I however, am lucky since mine is being shipped to me on TUESDAY!!!!

Sorry, you are wrong. It is not a scam. The site is real. Scam sites would be something like Sprint.yourmamasacrackbaby.com...

Anything that is something.sprint.com is fine.
(and no I'm not really calling your mama a crack baby....if I was wanting to be insulting there was SOOO much more I could choose from.)

I worked at an internet provider for almost 4 years, been doing tech support for 12 years, and I have had a small website hosting business for 4 years. There is nothing to fear from the bluefish.sprint.com website unless it gets hacked and someone puts something on it. Of course it wouldn't take long for that to get detected and shut down.

All I know is, it almost seems as if the Government has something to do with this phone launch because all these dates are being tossed out and no one knows whats true anymore, wtf?
