Switch to Sprint?

Simply Everything starting at 70 bucks?

Better phones?

What more do you want?

By the time Verizon finishes testing their version of the Diamond quality assurance the rest of the carriers will have released a new PPC from HTC for us to play with.

tech support that doesn't have a hard time speaking english.

Actually, the in store support I've gotten from Sprint is pretty decent. Company store I go to have very competent employees and hell, even the phone support I dealt with for my g/f's new Instinct was very thorough and wasn't hard to understand.

I had to spend an hour on the phone to merge two accounts and get a discount on a new plan when I bought the Diamond; the guy was clearly a level 2 CSR out of Sacramento who was VERY helpful and took care of everything w/out any hiccups. I think the whole "Sprint has bad CS" is really receding into the past. And it's really hard to argue with the phone selection, the pricing, AND the quality of the network (esp. the data).

tech support ive always gotten US people, just have to make sure you get to tech and not just CS trying to resolve a tech issue.

Unfortunately there are a number of us who cannot just switch to Sprint or any other carrier. I am stuck with Verizon as my employer is paying for my verizon plan and won't pay for any other plan. I am not about to go spend $70+ a month on a sprint plan just to get a better phone sooner. And better is still up for grabs as there has been no official word from verizon on the specs of their Diamond.

I pay for my own phone so I employer can't reach me when I'm not at work

sorry to say but id eat my hat if the Verizon phone was better then its announced specs.

its going to be crippled, horribly. just like every other device they release. you're in lala land if you're thinking Verizon is going to switch up there tactics now.

the Verizon diamond will be a paper weight compared to the Sprint and telus one. also Alltel is going to have a crippled device just like verizon.
