Judging by the time of the post and the ~400 miles from Cincinnati, you could be the fellow that I talked with at the authorized Sprint service center in West Bloomfield, MI.

Careful what you say about people, not everyone is a liar or looking for an undeserved gain. I've personally been unhappy with my 800w for a long while (> 1 year). Even though it's not "broken" it has many annoying issues. Of course any unhappy phone owner is going to jump at an opportunity to swap it. Especially since they paid hundreds of dollars for the phone and are locked into a contract. Shoot, I've even thought about trying to swap with a Centro owner just to shake my 800w. We'll see how my replacement pans out.

Hope this sheds some light on the other side of the counter for you.
