    Did you get one? I wanted one but I would have to change my plan, and there is no way I will be paying double to triple for the same features each month just to get the pre. Hopefully Sprint doesn't limit all their new phones to their Everything plans...

      Yea went there about an hour after they opened and got one. Had to change my plan too even though I have unlimited everything except for GPS. I only agreed cause I was late for something and I figured I will return it if customer service doesn't help me with my new bill amount. BTW GPS on thay thing does not work I tried every 15 minutes on an hour and a half drive yet the in car and the megellan both worked perfect. Give me my Pro back, ill even take a centro or my old 700 back at this rate. But the screen is so beautiful its almost worth keeping just for that

        Why the hell do you have to add GPS to your plan? Isn't GPS a free service (other than buying a GPS device)?

          Saw it, liked it, heard I had to totally upgrade my plan and forgot about it.

            Had a customer come in yesterday with one of those, asking why her E70 X5 didnt recognize/work with her Bluetooth....

            I was like, well didnt this phone come out a couple days ago? She said "she didnt care when it came out, only that it should work!"

              I'm not sure if I will wait for the HTC Lancaster to come out or get the Pre.

                How could there even be a debate in your mind between a Palm or an Android phone? Get the Lancaster for sure....

                  I'm crossing my fingers that if/when an android phone comes to Sprint we won't have to change our plans to Everything plans. (Even when we have everything already).

                    Does Sprint not have sim cards or something? I know when I get a smartphone with AT&T I can just put my SIM in it and they won't know otherwise (I will be getting a G1).

                        Make sure you have the newest firmware if they didn't already update it for you. Should be at 1.0.4 cause it really helps with the battery life.

                          I have had two HTCs and I will NEVER buy another one again. I have the HTC touch (Original windows mobile 6.1) right now and its FUCKED up beyond all belief! I can't believe how bad this phone is, but I still have another year on my contract before I can get a new phone at a decent price.

                          This is disapointing about the Pre though. I was really looking forward to it too.

                            i work for sprint...i didnt think you had to change your plan unless you didnt have any kind of data..to my knowlede you do not have to be on a everything data plan. The bluetooth on the pre is weird i couldnt get it to work?? and the 1 thing i can tell you about the battery is if our demo dies it takes about 2 days for us to get it charged and back running i dont know why, but if we charge it before it dies its fine and will charge right up..
