Check your Sprint store for your epic

So I reserved the epic on the first day it came out. I just happened to be in my local (corporate) sprint store and asked if I would be picking up my phone there. They stated that they were not on the list of store to get reservations and that I would have to drive an hour to get my phone. Make a long story short I called 611 who told me it would be there. Called the store back and after about a 30 mins they finally stated that they found the list?. Anyways I don't know if it is my store only but I know I would be PISSED if they gave my phone to someone else because they knew nothing about the reservations.

That sounds like the Sprint store where I got my Evo. I didn't reserve a phone, I just showed up at the store, and hoped for the best. The people in line in front of me were saying someone from the store called them and said they didn't have many Evos, and they were not using the reservation list....it was first come, first serve. I ended up getting the last Evo in the store, and that was because one guy who reserved one jumped out of line, so he could pick it up on his lunch break. I bet he was pissed.

I was planning on getting there when they opened to get it. Good idea?

i was at the sprint store the other day, and the girl working told me on evo launch day, they had people sleeping out front over night to get one. she said she expects the same thing for the epic. the good news she told me was that even though the epic was first come -first serve, the reservation holders were first up, and that they would sell me more than one! im really just hoping to get an evo that morning for my girl, but she may have to settle for an epic.

You're honestly not the only one. I have seen tons of guys who give their old phone to their girlfriend or wife when upgrading. I don't know why I find it funny...I guess women just love to have something new that they have to learn. Or, I guess women are not used to different sorts of technology left and right. Interesting.
