@tx_dbs_tx The instant rebate is only applicable for people who have full upgrade eligibility. You will pay BB's full retail price minus $75. BB's SRP is rumored to be $599.99, but if they price match Sprint it will be $449.99

$599.99 - $75 = $524.99 or
$449.99 - $75 = $374.99 w/ price match

Ok so being as BB did not guarantee me a device on the 4th i went to radio shack and they told me same thing.They do not know how many devices they will get on the 4th so they cannot guarantee anything,lol i really want this phone the first day.
I then called the best buy in which i pre-ordered and asked if they are making appointments and what not i was told they are not (i pre-ordered the 16th of may)I was also told that if i just show up early on the 4th i should be getting a device.


anyone know when best buy started taking pre-orders?

So I guess I have multiple issues. I have a pre-order in at Radio Shack. I am eligible for $75 dollars off on a new phone. In just talking to RS I guess they don't do the $75 dollar off deals only $150s. I called the Sprint store they stated they are opening at 8:00am Friday. Sounds to me like my best plan of attach would be to show up at Sprint between 7:00-7:30am and purchase the device at the store. Manly because they will give me the $75 off of the device. Then just keep the RS gift card for later use. OR if I can't get a device at Sprint then possibly fall back to RS and pay full price. One thing is no one really seems to know what the price of the device is yet it seems. Is it $499 or $599? I don't know if I'm going to be willing to pay $599 @ RS. The Sprint girls said you could pre-order on Sprints web site but I couldn't find it.

To my knowledge their isn't a Pre-order through sprint store more like a pre-registration which is here http://www.sprint.com/evo total retail is $449

you can also try calling sprint telesales if you have not done so.

Seems like someone did not do there job at RS when you pre-ordered. They were supposed to make sure you were eligible for a full upgrade.

RS has confirmed their unactivated price will be $499.99. http://radioshackwireless.com/templa..._SITESEARCHEVO

Agreed but I still have a pre-order so thats ok. Had he done his job I wouldn't have my pre-order to fall back on. The guy on the phone from RS told me that the in store price maybe different than the online price. He said it could be $599 for out of contract. Of course he wasn't sure and couldn't pull up the price on his PC. I should ask the RS guy thats been floating around. Either way if I can get $75 off at Sprint or $50 off at RS looks like I'm going to Sprint.
