hopefully they wait, so those of us who got the tp1 first will be able to do an upgrade instead of having to wait.

you guys are both trippin, im not an idiot, as you can see VIP member. if you follow the conversation i was having with that person he specifically asked if he bought a pre or instinct at full rate could he activate it on a regular plan. i responded and said he was correct even with purchising it full price you still have to have sep, we were talking about pre's and instincts only. if you click on the button you can follow to the previous post.

Well I definitely don't think that you are an idiot so don't take it like that please, but if just because you are a vip member that doesn't mean you can't have wrong info, I mean all you have to do is post a certain amount of posts and get thanked a certain amount of times and you are vip. But anyways no I didn't go back pages before that post to read the conversation, so I do apologize I was just commenting on your statement, which said the person was correct by saying that buying a phone full price you had to have a SEP. The post before yours that the person wrote that in said nothing about a pre or instinct, so I just didn't go back far enough to see that. Its all good though, and again I don't think your an idiot at all.

I am really not trying to be smart here but how is this any kind of news? Several posters have already posted basically the same exact conversation with sprint. Not trying to be rude, I have had a very long and stressful day.

Edit: Thread got merged

It happens whenever a new phone is near release...do you remember all the TP1 Sprint rep chats that were posted? Things would be a lot easier if Sprint would just advertise these types of phones more with their release date.

I have to agree, and that is why I am merging his thread with this one.

Ah, didn't realize it had been its own thread when I posted. Makes more sense why he was annoyed.

LOL, I edited my post slightly. I didn't want anyone else to think I was talking to them and I get flamed for it when it was meant for someone else before it was merged.
