If I had a clear decisive promise from Sprint, I would just get 2 Epics and be done with it--arghhhh bloody 2 year contract!

Me and my stupid commitment problems, just ask my wife--stretched that bachelorhood out for 12 friggin' years.

Yeah, I have a Vogue I wanted to reactivate, but not now.

As far as Samsung goes, damn near everything in my house is Samsung, but there will be a pretty good chance that my next phone won't be.

Unlike HTC and the issue with getting updates out being more an issue with the carrier. Anyone remember how long it took to get 6.5 on the TP2? Everyone else had it months before Sprint. This time we can place a good part of the blame on Samsung.

Wait--I'm confused, you already have the Epic so aren't you already paying the $10 tax, why would it matter to you if you switched to Vogue and back again? You don't have to pay the fee every time you switch phones do you?? I thought that they just were going to hit you with a $10 fee each month whether you had a 3G or 4G phone once you "broke the seal", am I mistaken?

Why? flip phones have no extra $10 fee..unless your swapping a none Epic smartphone?

So I just read over at xda that the Onion is now reporting that the protests in Egypt are actually a bunch of angry Epic owners upset about not having froyo yet. :protest:
