Re: Why does sprint boost up the Rant and the Instinct but not the Pro or Diamond?
Two reasons:

1. Windows Mobile phones are still by and large aimed at business users rather than end-user consumers. Ridiculous, I realize, since the Diamond especially is the most consumer oriented WinMo phone I've ever seen, but that's the reality of it.

2. Marketing for business-oriented technology just isn't "popular" these days. The iPhone 3G commercial bragging about how it's works really great for getting work done (talking about their support Exchange server and all that)-- the least showed and least popular of their ads, and yet it's the only one that is honest from beginning to end. Go figure.

The best buy mobile flyer which has all carriers, phones and plans, has a full page on the Sprint TP. In the same flyer is an unlocked TP that is not significantly advertised.
