So I then told him about the whole evp thing on 11/2 and bestbuy on 10/26. He said he wasn't sure about the bestbuy timeline but was positive that sprint would have it on 10/19. At this point I have no idea when its coming out, I already have my mind set on 11/2 so anytime sooner will be freaking awesome.

I'm the same way! I'm expecting nov 2nd any sooner than that is cool

Your right about that. I am the administrator of the Sprint/Nextel Account at work. We have about 80 phones and I sent an email to our corporate account rep telling her about thg1ffers that we have had from AT&T on iphones and T-mobile on the g1. She is supposed to be sending me a diamond "demo". She also stated as many have, the release for the pro is going to be the 19th and at that point she will put in a request for one of those. If all goes good I will be rocking one of each. It's really nice to speak for 80 customers at once.

Later,
Yamus

So they are shipping me a ruturn kit on a overnight delivery. She said that I will get it Monday. And the credit adjustment should be applied to my account once the phone is processed. So its all good but now its a terrible, anxious, nail bitting wait for Oct. 29. Arrggg! Its like torture! But worst! Oh the humabity!

If the Diamond is so crappy, why the rush to get the Pro, which is essentially the same thing?

^^ performance wise...... the pro is MUCH better than the diamond.

Have you tested one vs. the other?

SkunkApe · #**1038** (**permalink**) 10-12-2008, 10:44 PM

no....im just stating from what ive read unfortunately..... from facts...it would seem that the pro is much better in performance. i mean hell....i could be wrong

.... but just passing on what i read.

Gotcha...I was hoping maybe you were someone who got to test one before they were officially released. I'm going to wait until some people here post reviews before I decide whether I want to go with the Pro or not.
