Re: Sprint replacing Touch Pro with Touch Pro 2!
Keep at it - it's definitely YMMV at this point. Like anything worthwhile, persistence pays off.
I got lucky and got the call this morning, my TP2 will be in tomorrow afternoon. I don't know how the system works - I was in last week and was offered the usual phones EXCEPT the TP2, so I left the store with my regular Touch Pro in hand. I called Sprint to see if they had any advice and they called the local store on my behalf to see why I wasn't offered a TP2, because it wasn't in stock it turns out. So the local store said they'd order it for me, but I wasn't sure if it was fact, if it was ordered at that time, if I was placed on a list or whatever. I still don't know - it's possible it's back in stock in their system today and they ordered it this morning - they'd told me in the past that ordering a phone before 4pm gets it in the next day. I'm just thankful for the upgrade, hopefully it's not a refurb. My experience echoes jdmcivicguy - The guys at the 3rd party store were very helpful. I just watched PhoneDog's unboxing of the TP2 - I'm happy it has a standard 3.5mm headphone jack. Sweet! And a SIM card? Welcome to the 21st century! Now, what's an easy way to get the MSL code from them? Tell them there's a Windows Mobile update that requires it? |

Re: Sprint replacing Touch Pro with Touch Pro 2!
I am playing the waiting game right now too. I brought mine in today and they agreed that it is not working properly. They are happy to order the TP2 for me, but it was not in stock. I was hoping to get lucky. I guess I will just keep my eyes peeled on the post to see if anyone has an update. My case might be difficult as I am on the West coast as well. It would be great if there was a way to receive a text if someone found out that they were in stock otherwise this game might take a long time :)

Re: Sprint replacing Touch Pro with Touch Pro 2!
so i just called and my TP is having issues, 3rd one i have here. they said they cant replace with anything else other than a touch pro. I said can i upgrade, they said it might be $100-150 extra. I said i am interested. then they come back and tell me it would be $500 with the $75 discount. WTF!
Next i say, what other options would there be, this is my 3rd TP and i dont want another one sent to me. They say no other options until i have 1 more replacement phone sent to me. So i said ok, well can you send a replacement TP then. they say sure. as I am waiting, they said they can replace with an HTC Snap or a Blackberry... ???huh? I said that would be a down grade, so no. Got another TP sent to me, but I really dont want it. I am hoping when this one breaks to get a TP2..... |

Re: Sprint replacing Touch Pro with Touch Pro 2!
I was told that as of the first of the month the TP2 was no longer being offered as a replacement, since people were taking advantage of the offer. Since my TP lost the display last Saturday, I was offered a variety of smartphones to replace it, but nothing comparable in value to the TP. So, I called Sprint and had to fight on the phone for more than 2 hours to just get them to replace my TP with a refurb.
So, to all those who made up stories just so you could get a new toy, thanks for screwing us that really did need a new one. :disgust: |

Re: Sprint replacing Touch Pro with Touch Pro 2!
called *2 on sunday.... had the backlight/freezing issues and wifi kept locking up the phone if it was on for more than 5 minutes. They sent me out a refurb TP which i got today. Plugged in and used mymobiler while working to reload all of my apps and such onto it. unplugged to go home and tried to answer a text, the keyboard was locked up, tried to pop the center of it from the battery compartment,which helped it from not working to working randomly. so i drove to the sprint store. 10 minutes later and the girl said we are getting you into a different phone...
i think oh great, they are going to try and push a BB on me.... she says that they are going to get me a TP2. i play dumb and ask, "it has a touchscreen, keyboard and winmo right?". Yep..... all without ever saying anything about the wel or memos or anything... maybe its not a ruined system after all. oh and it should be in thursday, which means that TP2's are in stock at the sprint warehouse?? |
