I just got off the phone with Best Buy - they have a Free Phone Wednesday that runs from time to time - where upgrade and new customers are BOTH eligible for the free phone. This last Wednesday was a Free Phone Wednesday - it was a one day sale that ran in the ads and expired when they closed their doors that night. I bought my phone on Sunday and asked if they would price match from that one day and the girl said it would be up to the manager on duty. I might have to go up there and chew someone out this weekend. It pisses me off that I paid $100 bucks for something that was free three days later. For those of you wanting a great deal on this phone, don't get me wrong - $99 bucks is STILL a great deal. And Best Buy will buy your old phone from you. Now that I really think about it - I don't even know how they would give me a credit because I used the gift card that I got when I traded in the EVO. I am going to try though... 100 bucks is a 100 bucks anyway you think about it.
Go for it. Sounds like a great deal. My daughter is getting ready to go to college and is ready for an upgrade. I'm thinking about getting her in on a deal at Best Buy. She's had a chance to use my phone and really likes it. She also informed me that the signal strength is on par with her samsung transform.
I know I started this post, but over the weekend I realized I really do like the phone. I have only one real issue with the device. The wifi.
I leave it turned off most the time so it won't chew up battery hunting. When I do turn it on, all my indicators go white and it "hangs" so to speak with the connections.
Toggle airplane mode usually frees it up.
