Re: Sprint users ditching the TP for the TP2
 

My touch pro broke a couple of months back and i have the insurance through best buy, so I took the phone in and they said they would call me and let me know when my replacement had come in. It turns out that best buy has no more touch pro's at any of there stores in the US. So basically I have a $750 credit with Best Buy to get any sprint phone I want and I'm waiting for the touch pro 2.

Hopefully Best Buy will get that smartphone deal again like last year...

Re: Sprint users ditching the TP for the TP2
 

sweet!!!

Re: Sprint users ditching the TP for the TP2
 

i will get a touch pro 2 when it hits the stores!!! unfortunately, i will have to pay full price. i am currently 9 months within a 2 year contract. not to worry though, i've been saving!!!

Re: Sprint users ditching the TP for the TP2
 

I hope so as well. I got the BB deal and the Sprint 2 year upgrade discount even though I was not up for the 2 year upgrade discount!

Do you really think you can get $200 for your TP on e-bay? I'm on the fence. Currently, you can get a TP for $175 to $200. I'm either going to get a TP2 when they come out, or, after the TP2 is out, I'm thinking the TP will go for $100 or less and get one of them.

I got in on that deal. I returned the tp but I did get mine for 150.00 and that was a awesome deal. With all the keyboard issues I am glad I did. I hope the touch pro 2 does not have the same fate but I don't think it will. It seems like this thing is built pretty good

I logged onto Sprint.com and did the live chat with a rep. Didn't go so well. I basically told her my keyboard goes out from time to time, my battery life is atrocious, the thing overheats and the GPS lags behind causing me to miss turns. She said my only option is to bring it in for repairs or get sent a new one. I told her I can find pages upon pages of people reporting the exact same problems, it's not just my phone, it's every Touch Pro, so what's the point of being sent a new Touch Pro? It's going to have the same problems. I said "I know you guys are coming out with the TP2 in the next few weeks, why don't you just send me one of those instead" lol

She then said they haven't determined a price for it yet, and still my only option was to have it repaired or get sent a new one.

SO...try #1 not successful. I'm going to call (cancellation dept) the next time instead of the online chat. And I'm going to do it after the TP2 is out.

Anyone else thinking of trying a method like this? Is this bad? I mean the problems I'm mentioning are real. It's not like I'm making stuff up.
