Right, but that's Verizon. Guess I will have to talk really good to get Sprint to give me $100 credit or something like that

Don't think the price of a new TP2 on ebay will go below $200 in next 2 months even after Evo.

You had asked for the site for "Sence Big Red".

"Sence was prolly a typo and should have been "Since".

And Big Red is Verizon. So the statement could have read... "Since Verizon is selling..."

Just wanted to try and stop a wild goose chase for "Sence Big Red". Lol. Tryin to help but I think I just confused us all more...

There is a way I think to get them to give you 50$ for renewing your contract which does not remove your upgrade eligibility.

I'll be riding out with my TP2 for a while. For business, you can't beat it. Besides, an extra $10 a month with Sprint for the EVO? Come on! Don't we already pay enough for these plans???

im a tech junkie, can never have too much hardware laying around...and for 199 why not get the most specced device about to be on the market anyways..

the evo is saving me from buying a BlueRay Player... i can download blueray/hd movies, put them on my phone, and use the HDMIOut to play it on the TV.. no need for a seperate player now

i, like some others, am not really looking forward to win phone 7 so far... doesnt mean they wont show something good at some point... and if its cost friendly, ill prob still buy a win phone 7 anyways when they come out.. just because i like to stay on top of technology, especially when it comes to phones... i have 4 lines, so ill have no prob having 4 diff phones with various OS' on them...

how are you going to store a 30-40gb movie on your phone??? that would take some serious compression. (though I am thinking about converting avatar dvd, not bluray down to my phone, just to see how it looks.

and I thought the evo only did 720p out???

be careful with that. they talked my wife into the 50.00 credit, then extended her for 2 years. I called and got the extension cancelled, but that is their way of giving you something if you don't want a new phone, to get you into a new contract.

Isn't that what I said?

You do not loose your eligibility for upgrades either way.

If I can get a TP2 on ebay for <$240, I'll go w/ that so don't have to sign contract and wait for rebate

If I can get'it from Sprint for significantly <$199, then I'll go w/ sprint

There is sooo many GREAT programs on this site that make's WM truly what it should be and how it was meant to function, Co0kies Home Tab is something that should have been stock with sense and its great communities like this one that makes WM what it is today. Just my thoughts on it.

We needed this thread great Idea.

Thanks

I'm not sure what you mean by WM is truly the only phone OS you have full control over. I haven't found a feature on my Android phones that I couldn't change / modify like I could with my TP2, TP, Diamond, or Mogul.

You can install packages outside of the Android store, go to a forum (i grab something from Google's Code Repository once in a while) download the appropriate files and install. But the Android Market is once of the best features of Android. One place to look for software.

I loved windows mobile, don't get me wrong, but forum jumping for software got old.... and I never realized how much I disliked it until I started using Android phones.

Anywho.... I'm not getting rid of my WM phone just yet.... there still isn't an Android world phone.
