On SERO? And/or without the $10 fee (which we accepted, so the claim they don't know, and "trust" we know the plan system is bogus)?

No not on SERO. On a Business 200 plan ( basically just 200 minutes). And yes without the 10.00 fee... But like I said it told we I would have to have one of a few plans or compatible. To me compatible would be unlimited data, text, etc and the 10.00 Premium... So There is an argument there. Playing the Devil's Advocate as always though Sprint was pretty upfront about what you would need to have for this phone. Either way... Definitely good luck to you.

Sprint has been vague and contradictory in press releases (evidence the Dan Hesse issue), and who says anyone needs to have any info channel from Sprint? Did this just come from Sprint through the media? Did they ever call or email me about the EVO? NO, they never did. And how can I be expected to have a better info channel from Sprint than Best Buy? Best Buy made me answer a bunch of things, including my wifes SS#, DRIVERS LICENSE # and Expiration (I guess you need to be able to drive to get it, though you can't drive and talk on it, except on Bluetooth), and you are claiming that with that need for personal data, AND their ability to check it all in 90 seconds (can YOU do that?), they don't know what they are doing? Well, I guess there is a price for ignorance.

Not true..if you don't drive you can get a "None Drivers License" which pretty much is a drivers license but doesn't give you license to drive...aka simply an ID card...

Yeah, I know. I've been licensed since age 14, as I grew up in South Dakota. By the time I hit 16, I had driven in 33 states, and most major cities in the country. In those days, there was full recoginition of other states licensing policies, and they were respected everywhere. Now, here in CA for instance, they repect licenses that meet their minimum standards for their own citizens. This is a big issue with Concealed Carry Permits now too. I have permits good in 30+ states, but not everywhere. You have to know a ton of individual state laws. It's stupid. Bring back the good old days..........

Hold on... I never once said Best buy didn't know what they were doing. I said earlier that the third parties essentially screwed up by not flashing the same screen that Sprint does when you purchase the phone with an incompatible plan therefore that is who the problem should be with on that
end. Next.. I was basically saying that you have a valid argument because it seems to me that the sero plans are very cheap plans that offer unlimited data etc so the only reason Sprint has not to activate is because they don't want to. Not sure what you read in my post to elicit that response. Were you calling me ignorant?
