I need some help/advice
ok so i was wondering since i am not to familiar with the whole lingo with cell phones if i could get some of your takes on what i should or what i can do. So i am a premier customer with sprint and plan to be getting this EVO when it comes out. I don't have any eligibility for an upgrade nor am i going to add a line to get the phone. I was wondering since i am a premier customer if there is some way i could be able to get the phone for a 199.99 price tag. I know one option might be to buy out the contract and then renew to a new 2yr and be able to get the phone in that sense but i dont want to have to wait for the 4th and go to the sprint store because what if they sell out? I want to be guaranteed a phone so i can have it on the 4th and not have to wait for the next shipment of EVOs to get to the store which could be god knows how long. I think i heard someone say that if you have the Employee Value Program and being able to pre-order it through sprint that way. If that is true then i think i will be able to do that. But all in all what should i do here not knowing if it is true about ordering the EVO through sprint being with the EVP?

Re: I need some help/advice
If you're not out of contract and you're not close to it, I wouldn't think you have good chances of getting it for 200. However, there is always luck and maybe you can find the right people that will hook it up. Chances are, you have to pay full price though.
I have no idea about the EVP or anything of that nature, but Sprint says they are not doing pre-orders on the EVO. |

You will want to check the Pre-Orders thread that is above, there is alot of info in there about who are getting phones and from whom. I do know that BBY has stopped their pre orders.

Re: I need some help/advice
sigh.... i guess i didnt make myself too clear on my question. I am a premier member... does that mean ANYTHING? like i said i dont know what i am really talking about cause i am not too literate in the cell phone field. This will be the first time i buy a phone like this and didnt know what my options are and what i can do about being able to buy out the rest of the contract and re-up to get the phone for 199.99. and i just mentioned the preorder through sprint cause someone said something about if you had the EVP then you could and i was simply asking if there was any backing to that statement. I dont know if being a premier member will help me out in being able to get a better discount or what?

Re: I need some help/advice
as far as i know, being a premiere member means you get to upgrade once per year instead of every two years. I think that's all you get in regards to getting the phone itself cheaper.

Re: I need some help/advice
If you are a premier customer, after one year of service on that line you are eligible for a 2 year ($150) discount. You get a "one year perk" over others.

and as for your initial question, if you're not eligible for an upgrade but you're willing to pay the termination fee on your account to get the upgrade price, you're going to spend about $450 anyway so why not just pay unactivated and save yourself the hassle |
