Well why not just get one new phone and save upgrade of 2nd one for later? You can also attempt to make use of the 30 day rule to try to be eligible for an Evo 3d within the 30 day cycle...

Edit:Just realized you said off contract...nvm on the 30 day thing then...
Thanks for the response gTen...

Please note that I added a few things to the wants list. Was too sleepy when I wrote this post.

Additions include:

What's likely to include Netflix support, and Free Wifi Hotspot, I'll pay for the app if I must, not the service though.

The reason I say the Epic is more buggier then the Evo is that it seems that Samsung just can't drop a reliable update. I mean look how long it took for them to drop Froyo officially, only to be pulled right after, I actually stopped following the Epic development after that eff up. I guess the better question is did Froyo finally drop officially? How bad is it, can you point me to a bug list anywhere? While I don't mind flashing my phone, I already have a full time job, I don't need two of them. I just don't feel like making this a daily/weekly adventure, every few months is fine, but once I move into a phone, I really hate starting over, and over again.

Recent rumor mill suggests that the Evo 3d isn't dropping in June, it could be July/August. That's why I figured just buy 2 phones now out of pocket and use the upgrades later--if I even decide to stay with Sprint I'm still only in my 7th year, no gold for me. I pay about $160 month for two phones, I'm not getting any great deals that I couldn't get from Verizon, if I decided to jump ship for a better released phone or service (although the latter one isn't likely). Verizon is still unlimited right--for now?

If Sprint and Verizon would only release a playbook for all phone between now and the end of the year, this would all be a piece of cake, but unfortunately, "the cake is a lie".
