Dang...that would be AWESOME! I have heard a few select people mention they have the USB port in their car stereo. Is it an after-market deck or something fancy direct from dealer? Just curious cuz aftermarket I can look into at some point :D

Actually its this...
  • For three consecutive months, consumer customers must be on an individual wireless plan of at least $69.99 per month or spend at least $99.99 per month on a plan that shares minutes.
    OR
  • Must have been a Sprint wireless customer for at least 10 years.

And once you become a Premier customer these are the benefits.
  • Early Upgrades: After only one year customers can receive our new customer price on a new handset. That's almost a year sooner than other customers. For accounts sharing minutes, the early upgrade applies to the primary line. A new two-year agreement is required.
  • “Just Because” Perks: Spontaneous special offers for trips, tickets to shows and sporting events -- just to say thanks.
  • Anniversary Rewards: Customers celebrate their annual Sprint anniversary with a special gift such as free ring tones or free minutes.
  • First to Know/First to Buy: Longstanding customers get an exclusive first peek at new products and services such as the upcoming Palm Pre™, and then are among the first with opportunities to purchase when they become available.
  • Accessory Discounts: A once-a-year discount on accessories at participating Sprint stores.
  • Courtesy Plan Check: For customers who haven’t changed their plan in six months, Sprint will notify them for a “Plan Check” to make sure they are getting the most value out of their device.
See Sprint Premier website.

What they don't tell you is that its only for the main phone on the account. So if you have two or more phones on your account on the primary one gets the one year upgrade, not the others. Still better than nothing.

speaking of sites, this is one I never seen before from Sprint.

I dunno.. I may be mis-reading you... I meet the first criteria, but not the 2nd; however I am a premier customer. I joined last April and I've been good Since May 1st... I also have 4 lines.... We're you trying to say that you had to fall into one bullet point or the other in order to be premeir or were you saying that you had to meet both?

Just a heads up: The newly formed Accessories forum isn't linking properly. You can still access the "Official Accessories" thread though by clicking the link where it says "last post".
 
Put my Touch Pro on the bay at like 2:00 by 2:18 someone bought it. I had by now $120 with og box car/wall charger all manuals and discs hands free earbuds etc. But the phone is beat to hell ! I showed how banged up the edges were in my pics guess he don't care. Phone was 2 years old. All I had to come up with for this release was $80 after selling my Touch. *Borat Voice* ... very nice.

Yeah I was shocked. I had the auction start at $70 and buy now $120. I think I screwed myself. Kinda thinkin I should have went higher. But when I listed it it said the average price they sell for is $76 - $120. IDK ... but I'll take it. That with my $150 off upgrade means I'm getting the hotspot access also until an alternative arises. Good luck sellin yours.
 
For those in Columbus Ohio, I just left the radio shack at easton and the manager said he has a few extra, and someone could call and have it put aside. So if you know anyone looking share it with them. I don't know how to search by city, so I'll post a message for who sees it. The Sprint at easton said they will have a lot when they open at eight and it will be first come first serve.
 
I already have a pre order at best buy, but I stopped by rs just to see if they have any accessories out. I talked to the manager and he stated that they would have a few extra phones, and if i wanted one he would put it aside, but no preorder deals. I stated that I was going to best buy and he said he would give me trade in value on my old phone. I had him look it up, and my touch diamond is worth $22 if I have the charger, and it is in very good condition. I laughed. I'll still be going to best buy.

Did Time Warner back down?? I lost track of the story as it didn't affect me. Can't get nothing but 4g where I live.

Yeah, they received such a backlash and fight that they stopped it. However, most people are reporting that the 2GB limit won't be an issue with their iPhones (here), so I doubt the backlash will happen with ATT.
 
Along with the thread about there being enough Evo's to go around, it looks like Engadget is also reporting it. Check it out.

HTC EVO 4Gs flooding into Best Buys, some Radio Shacks opening at 6AM on Friday -- Engadget

EDIT: In one of the screens, you can see that the boxes are wrapped in the pre-order slips. It looks like your phone is yours indeed! I know this isn't new info, but I've been very skeptical about BB actually holding a device for me (other places have not in the past, despite a pre-order). Confirmation!
 
Agree-the commercial is VERY weak; but I wonder if they think they already have us Techies so now they don't want to make the phone look too complicated? Hey time check till friday??

First of all it's leaps and bounds over the Pre commercials from last year... Second, I personally liked it and think it actually does more for the EVO than the Verizon commercials did for Droid. I hope this is just the begining. IMO the commercial may not have been flashy and even thought flashy is good a powerful message goes that much further... The incorporated Sprint + Now + First = historic, we're a part of it! My $0.02
 
I thought it was good. They should have gone with the in-your-face approach showcasing crazy futuristic features that crApple fans could only drool over. But I'm sure they'll get better.
