as the title says, who has the Sprint Insurance for their Hero? I think it's $7 per month for insurance. so who has them? you think it's worth it?

Are you willing to pay full price if you lose the phone? yes! is worth it!

Very worth it. Water damage, physical damage. You will not have to pay. Full price of the phone. If you even calculate $7 a month for 2 years its still cheaper than the full price of the phone if something is to happen.

YES! I have insurance, and in my opinion it is a necessity for high end devices...you never know what can happen

I've been holding off too, but will probably sign up this weekend. My reasons for holding off... $100 deductible if you need a replacement phone. That seems way too high. Second reason is that as a "Premier" customer I can do a full upgrade every 12 months, so is it worth paying for insurance? Can anyone comment as to how services are handled that don't require a replacement phone? No deductible for cracked screen? What about a cracked case?

Anyway, obviously I'm leaning towards the latter and adding insurance to my phone soon, but... it bothers me.

Does it cover theft, a lost phone and water damage?

don't do it, it's a joke. all they're really doing is charging you more just to honor the manufactures' warranty.

Dude You have to get it, i went threw $1500 worth of HTC diamonds in the year i had it. Its well worth the $7 bucks a month. Plus if its water damaged or you/someone else has a fit and throws it out the car like many people have ben known to do, its only $100. WAY WAY WAY worth it
