Sprint adds 4G in New York, Los Angeles | Dialed In - CNET Blogs
Update: Sorry. i read that wrong. they were talking about customers that were paying $10 but had no 4g coverage but now do.
No sales tax for Californians!!! That in its self makes it worth it. I put my pre-order in and chose 2 day delivery for 8 bucks. If something comes up that is better, I will just cancel my order.
It is just really hard to believe that Sprint is going to release a phone in 5 days without even a hint of advertising or announcement. Here's to hoping I am SO wrong!
