this is what i was waiting for.....i think i will get the hero instead of tp2....or atleast try it for 30 days, then return if i dont like it, and get the tp2.

Just be sure to read/ask about the BB's return policy as for they might tack on a 15% or even the 25% restocking fee for opened merchandises. If from Sprint, I know for sure they charge you $35 for activated handset.

i agree with Darren, that it wont require a SE plan... the Hero isnt a flagship device for sprint... their pride and joy Android device will come from Samsung as theyve claimed often.... so it looks like the InstinctQ, which is made by Samsuing will probably get the Android Franchise tag...

I didn't say you did. I said, granting Sprint will let you put the phone on a SERO line. I just wanted to know if BestBuy can do SERO upgrades in store or if you have to go through Sprint.

Re: Best Buy to presell Sprint's HTC Hero starting September 13th
 

AFAIK, people were able to upgrade to their TP's while still on sero plans.

i talked to sprint today and they said they have no news on it yet. they doubt it will be out before x-mas.

Re: Best Buy to presell Sprint's HTC Hero starting September 13th
 

Best Buy was able to upgrade me to the TP back in October. It wasn't was straight forward as it should have been; the Best Buy rep did have to call Sprint and have them complete the transaction.... however all was done in Best Buy.

Re: Best Buy to presell Sprint's HTC Hero starting September 13th
 

i doubt best buy is getting the hero in less than two weeks., as i said sprint told me they have no release date yet. the rep i talked to did not even know they had one coming, lol! ](*,)

Re: Best Buy to presell Sprint's HTC Hero starting September 13th
 

They are just pre-selling the unit. You won't walk out of BB with one in your hands on Sept 13...or 14th....or even the 15th. But at least we will find out whether it's like the GSM version, with the chin, or the rumored CDMA chin-less photos that recently surfaced.
