Re: To All the "Second Wave" BB Customers!

i was on the second wave at best buy but they had enough i got one anyway with the free bluetooth headset. I know one woman did walk in and get one she has no clue how luck she is. someone cancelled so there was one available. and as far as eligibility goes i bought mine on a new line 200 dollars. and i will cancel one line on monday at a cost of 80 dollars penalty fro early cancellation. so there are ways around these issues.

No one cancelled at my BB, and there were 20 people ahead of me... And I was told that after I put down $50..

I personally called before hand and confirmed on the 31st to see if there would be any problem with the pre-order for the 4th. I was assured not, but lo and behold come the next day, after selling my TP2 (stupid, I know, but I needed the money to pre-order), I was told that I would not get my phone until the tenth, most likely...


Well after much whining, bit**ing, and harassing, I found out that the stores have been hearing rumors that they will be getting in the second wave for the lied to like me from Monday, the 7th to Thursday, the 10th. Just rumors, but the sources are reliable. So don't fret, only one more full day to go EVO-less hopefully!
I would have cancled and just order from sprint took a day to get the phone 5th

Don't take this the wrong way, but If you dont have $100 available to you, why are you buying a $200 phone that requires a plan thats over $70 a month?? Just curious.

Lol well... I'm a minor, and technically can't even sign the contract :P I have the bill covered, but to get the phone I had to buy it myself.

Thanks for inquiring into my financial situation though
