HTC EVO on Sprint Employee Account ?

[ufjason]

Well, a long time has passed and I finally found a rep that knew exactly what was going on. 3rd party plan holders no longer can have contracts. The way he explained it is that the accounts are supposed to be only as good as the time you are working for the 3rd party company i.e. BB or RS. If you stop working there, then the sprint account rep is supposed to removed your employee status. You then get contacted to change your rate plan or disconnect. So, without any contracts, you don't have any upgrades either. I guess the only way around this is to get them to change your plan to the indirect one but I think that is a huge YMMV. He did tell me that I was free to purchase a phone outright and they will activate 4g on the 3rd party plans for the additional $10.

So, now I'm on the hunt for a new or like new used Evo 4g. If anyone out there wants to get rid of one, let me know. For a brand new untouched model, I'm willing to pay up to $275. For a like new used, up to $200. These prices are based off what I'm seeing on craigslist around here.
