is the $10 surcharge going to be optional, or is it mandatory?

anyways, i just found out that i get a 15% discount b/c of work, so, guess who still comes out ahead?









me. it's me that comes out ahead.


Sprint too, if you are ditching another carrier...





Mission accomplished Mr. Hesse !!!

I am so confused with the Everything Data Plan $69.99 or $79.99.

Is this only for internet connectivity? What about minute plans?

I will be a brand new Sprint customer.

How much money is it going to cost me that day? How much money do I have to bring?

In the email I received it says this:

May require up to a $36 activation fee/line, credit approval and deposit. Up to $200 early termination fee/line applies. Phone Offer: While supplies last. $449.99 - $150.00 (two-year activation) - $100.00 (mail-in rebate) = $199.99 (final price). Mail-in Rebate: Requires activation at the time of purchase. Line must be active 30 consecutive days. Allow 10 to 14 weeks for rebate

Does this mean that I will have to pay

$449.99 + data plan ($69.99) + minute plan (whatever it cost) + $36.00 activation fee + taxes?

:confused:

You will have to pay 199.99 for the phone and 69 for your phone plan plus the possible 10.00 for 4g

Should only cost you:
$199 for 2 year plan for the phone
$36 activation fee
Possible $10 for 4g usage (not sure if optional or mandatory
$69.99 for Everything Data with 450 minutes....if you want that

Michael Thornton
Do I also have to pay for it if there is no 4g in my area? Or is it just a mandatory extra $10 to have the evo?

You will have to pay the $10 data fee to use the 4G coverage if it is available in your area.

So if it is not available, which it is not, I do not have to pay the $10 data fee- is that correct?

That is correct. It is only if you would like to use that coverage area.

These guys do not know much of anything. The conversation I had with a rep half an hour ago had them saying that the details for the 4G were not out yet. My buddy, who has worked at a Sprint store for several years, didn't even know the date it was coming out or anything about it when I asked him around the same time. All you did was lead him into an answer that you already laid out. I will take the official Sprint email and the word of the spokesman over an live chat rep.

But the $199.99 is after $100 mail in rebate, meaning I'm going to have to fork:

$299.99 + $69.99 + $10.00 4G (I live in Orlando, I read we will get it this summer, but no date yet, or we already have it?

Total $379.98 * 7% taxes (or is it 6.5%) = 379.98 + $26.60 = $406.58

Can anyone confirm this?

Gulp!

In the Engadget videos, it looks like the circles around the soft buttons are still there. They are faint but you can see them.

Don't you pay tax on the unsubsidized price?

That day!
You will have to pay 300+ tax +36 @ sprint, assuming your credit is good...
200+ tax + 36 at bb or rs assuming your credit is good...
It is post paid, so the 69.99(+10?) will be after the first month but will be higher obviously due to cell phone taxes bs etc.

That's where the problem is. My credit is not what I call good or fair.

How much more will I have to pay for this?

You'd pay:

299 for the phone plus tax. Also remember, if you don't have good credit they will ask for a deposit. The Unlimited Plan @ 69 is prorated and will part of your first bill, along with the 36 activation fee and all the BS service charges. The 10 for 4G is part of the service so will also be included in the bill.

June 4th can't come any sooner :)
