Root work is going on over here... http://androidforums.com/elite-all-things-root/551775-well-lets-get-ball-rolling.html

According to this Sprint has CDMA coverage in Canada. That doesn't mean I can connect to their towers, but they're there.

It would be pretty lame if they screwed the people who pre-ordered Elites out of the deal.

Anyone have any luck using a VM USA phone in Canada? Obviously we can't use Virgin towers up there since they are GSM, but if Sprint has CDMA towers in Canada should't we be able to connect to them?

WTF? I ordered an Elite on the 15th. It's not activated yet, think I'll still get the $25 google wallet credit?

That sucks. I've heard leaving it overnight in a paper bag filled with uncooked rice might help.

Weird, I was on VM's site a bunch today and I SWEAR they had a splash page announcing the EVO V 4G (3D) was dropping 5/31 at $299. Now it seems to be gone. Did anyone else see this?

Well, I just ordered an Elite. Misguided? Maybe. We'll see when it gets here. It's not like me to buy something the day it comes out, so hopefully I won't see blowout deals on it in the next few weeks (VM has a $35 account credit deal, but only for new accounts). $149.99 already seems like...

Agreed, but I just can't see spending ~$300 on a phone, and I'm never going to get their Wimax 4G here anyway. This is what I'm thinking. If this phone was available when I bought my OV I would have sprung for it immediately, but at the time the only other option was the Slider, which did...

So who preordered all the Elites? Seems like I'm the only one here interested in it. I'd really like to see one in person first since I have some reservations about the lower ppi of the larger screen at the same resolution as the OV. I'm not a fan of the One V's non-removable battery (and the...

VM's site says they've reached their limit for pre-orders on the Elite. Hopefully this thing will take off and get devs supporting it. They certainly nailed the price, IMO. Anyone know if they will be available at Best Buy/Radio Shack/Amazon?

LOL, "Our network covers this area, but we aren't currently selling service here."

Has anyone been able to find out if the Elite will have a real Gorilla glass screen, or will it be the same polycarbonate screen as the OV? I've always found my OV's screen to be a little disappointing, just the way it feels.

As I mentioned in the other thread, I'm probably going to grab an Elite once they hit the shelves in other stores. I realize it's not much of an upgrade from the OV, but I"m not much of a 'power user' and this seems to be everything I want at the price I want. I know could root and ROM to GB...

Thanks Leslie. No grandfather here, I'm paying $35/mo no matter what phone I have. I'm still tempted by the stock GB and 800mhz without root/ROM and overclocking. 5mp camera is nice too, but the killer is the huge increase in internal memory (512MB RAM and 4 GB internal storage, raw...
