Yea...Im due for an upgrade  myself. If you're dealing with sprint I would recommend the EVO or Samsung Epic...2 of the best sprint has to offer right now.

Epic has touch screen and slide down keyboard effect. Epic also comes with two battiers, and evo comes with one. I personally would choose the Epic.

Thanks! Do you have a Epic?

I went by Sprint today to play around with the phones and I like the Epic better. I think the evo is more popular, but it is a bit to much for me and wasn't easy to navigate. The epic seemed easy. Sprint is sending me a replacement phone, but I still think I will buy the epic soon.

Not yet. My contract is up next month and I think Im going to use the rebate to get the epic. Yea, seems that sprint put there marketing campaign behind the evo but the epic is a little bit newer and updated.

I agree, they are marketing EVO hard, but I don't think it's the better phone. Thanks!

I've also been looking toward getting the Epic...if you are considering it, just keep in mind that there's an extra $10 a month you will pay for the 4G capability of the phone...regardless of whether you live in a 4G area or not...I have my heart set on the Epic...especially with my rebate and the Sprint Buyback program they have going on...I'll probably end up paying about 40 bucks..lol

how dooo you pay 40!! I went to sprint and with my upgrade the phone would cost 300 and then they mail back $100. I don't want to spend 200 on a cell phone. I will just keep on keeping on with my Palm Centro lol.

Lol...well I'm hoping it will be 40...cause right now in NC, it's on special for $199...I already have the $150 instant savings that I was eligible for last June, plus the Sprint Buyback Program, where they purchase your old phone and apply that amount to your new one as well...

ooo. lol. man i wish I was NC right now. I will look into the Sprint Buyback program. Only thing with that, is that I like to keep at least one old phone(I usually donate the rest) and use it as a backup. Though for the Epic.. I might consider selling my old phone lol.

My phone is cool and all, but all the things I do with my business, I think a smart phone would suit me better.

I believe the Epic is definitely a smart choice for business dealings...I would love to start my own business, and it seems this phone would be a great investment..the Buyback program is cool, but you only get so much money for it...right now I have the Instinct s30, and it's only worth $12...so you could be better off keeping your old phone....

hmmm, I have decisions to make. I will wait a few months for the hype around 4G to die down and the price to go down then purchase it.

Good plan  Grin...my contract doesn't expire till June, so I'm gonna see how I feel about it in 5 months...I'm excited for it now, but time will tell whether I'll still hold the same excitement for it...
