so wuts the verdict?....are they everything theyre hyped up to be this time around?....and this is for mark 7;...

ay mark, i have 3 phones on my account,1 for me and 2 for my kids,..my phone being the main line....but only my phone is up for upgrade and not theres,.but i wanna get one for my oldest but use it for her phone but wanna keep my phone i have now!....so wut would be my best bet or can i even do that,...can i just buy the phone for the 199 with a renewal,but tell them to hook it to her phone?..is there anything that would keep me from being able to do that?...

Most times they'll let you use the eligibility of another line...It's not exactly by the rules but I always did it for people. It may be different this time around with the iPhone tho but I doubt it....I think you got a good chance to make it happen.

And yes, they're fantastic

he meant no Stereo bluetooth.....it does have bluetooth but its limited. GPS only shows you as a blip on the map dont expect it to speak out directions.

Either way I like it, if you already have the original and dont really care about 3G keep your current one. Im impressed by the speed and now i have twice as much room in the ipod. It also picks up my wifi better than my old one..

I understand it that you have sprint.....If you were w/ATT then get that TILT. That's what i got and IMHO it is alot better than the IPHONE. The main problem 4 me is that i gotta have a full physical keyboard. I cant text on the screen, feel me?

Thats gay....I just had a similar situation...family member was due for an upgrade but I needed a new phone for myself (had mines for 3 years and it was used when I got it)... so I ordered it online through the family member's upgrade and got it activated to my number through verizon's website.

Or if your closer to 2 months, try calling in to customer care and threaten to cancel that line when the contract is up unless they give u an upgrade. Hell yer close enough. They can put it in the notes which the reps in the store can read and it's a wrap.

Just don't be too much of an asshole about it otherwise they'll shut ya down lol
