What's a planogram? What does having it on a planogram means for us?

We are not all familiar with how Sprint stores work

planogram is what the store calls "changing all the stupid posters" and starting new "sales".

It *was* on the planogram but after the managers meeting and yesterdays conference call, it is no longer ready for release. On top of the delay, the speculation is that the 6700 is being re-released until the 6800 TITAN'IC is ready to ship.

That phone does put the 6800 to shame! I thought the imate ultimate line was high end... Oh well its Monday morning and that f-n 6800 is still not on the sprint website. just for this long wait, we should DEMAND the 6800 to come with wm7....second edition.

Well, the Sprint site has the Treo 755p variants on there now, but no 6800.. that's all the confirmation I need.

*waits patiently for his 6700 to show up*

here's another angle...

what if Sprint is passing around the word of an Aug/Sept/Oct release for the 6800 so that people get used to the idea ... but, they've been working on the WM6 and/or RevA updates already and the 6800 comes out in early June. Then Sprint can say, "Look, we told you later in the year, but we actually got the device out a lot sooner."

at least this is what I keep telling myself to counteract the agony of a long and drawn out wait before the 6800 is really released.

That would be nice, but a user here who was able to get a test unit showed WM5, so my guess is that they are just really starting to test it with WM6 and RevA.

I brought my 6700 to the Waterford Lakes store (yeah, i'm also an Orlando boy) to get it activated (there was a problem doing it over the phone) and the sales rep had never even seen one! The techs at that store are pretty good though, just not the reps.

I know! I was comparing the Ultimate 6150 to the Flame, and the Flame wins hands-down due to the on-board video card and 2GB ROM!

I'm just tired of getting d-cked around by Sprint.
