I honestly believe that the people who have a "perfect" Touch Pro, really don't. The earpiece is definitely muffled, and the battery cover squeaks--even with tons of paper towel stuffed in there... ARG!!! the speaker is the worst part though... a hard-reset fixed most of my volume issues, but the earpiece still sounds terrible...

I can't say my Touch Pro is "perfect" but it's pretty close, I was fortunate enough to not encounter any of the problems you've described. Aside from some minor software gripes with the Sprint customizations my device has been operating flawlessly. One thing I can report on is that it appears to be a dead pixel on the CCD when I'm taking photos. I haven't investigated it in-depth, but it was fairly provident on my first few photos. But it's nothing you can see unless you take a dark photograph and import it over the the PC at full 2048x1536 resolution and then ZOOM in to see the dead pixel. So it's really nothing to whine about. I love this device, hope the rest of you are able to acquire one soon. -- and to stay on topic -- I want Sprint to stock up asap so if god forbid I damage the phone there's an insurance replacement waiting already at the local Sprint store.

You can go to the local sprint store for an insurance replacement??

You can replace in store for just about any reason depending on which insurance you have. If you have the full $7/mo TEP insurance (like I have) then you should be able to get it replaced for most reasons. I bought a 6700 off ebay a while back that I ended up cracking the screen on and they gave me a brand new replacement in store.

I've heard that for certain things they will make you get it replaced through Asurion for $50. The reasons I've heard are water damage or if the phone is horribly damaged (i.e. beat with a hammer). I can't verify this as I've never run into either situation.

If it does, hopefully they will provide an advanced replacement like the other phone... If they dont I will pitch a bit** fit... I will not do without my phone!! EVER!!

i just want them to say...well...lets release it tonight at midnight...then i can have something to look forward to the rest of the day. but that prob wont happen....and i will be sad and then have nothing exciting to look forward to. just more work lol

[dancrosoft]

Well see if they do release it tomorrow, we probably wont see it until Monday, even with Next day shipping. I dunno if they use a shipper that does Saturday delivery.

Looks like the babysitter is gone again. Come on kiddies, don't you know better by now to not ask questions to the Sprint Tele-Jockies?
Sure, the ones that frequent this forum know what's going on, but the 99% of the rest....well...It's just like talking to a mythical imp. You would be retarded (psychotic rather) to expect a real world answer from a sprite.
However, the sprite imp isn't necessarily retarded, it's just what it is, and so it goes for Sprint Emps.
