Just talked them into giving me back my upgrade and ordered on the same call. Can't wait to get it! I'm going to miss my evo though.

Not that impressed

Some good stuff but some not so good. Hard to believe it's often slower to load Internet than my old Hero. Tried to listen to Fm radio on Internet...kept cutting out even with strong signal. Connected with wifi and totally wiped out reception. No way to minimize keyboard in order to see full screen or next text box. Voice dial and speech to text is great. Will not connect with my Bluetooth headset. Big negative for me is no native sync (have been using HTC sync for free) with Outlook...third party sync software is $40 and reviews are dicey. Lots to like in spite of these comments but I'm considering returning for an Evo...must have Outlook sync.

Anyone drop the EVO for the Nexus 4g?

I would like someone to be able to tell me about the lag on the evo while activating the 4g and if it runs smoother on 4g on the Nexus or EVO...

Can someone with a factory fresh Nexus S please go to Menu>Settings>SD & Phone Storage and please tell me what the available space is for SD card and Internal phone storage?

Thanks in advance

Quick ?, I upgraded my line through Sprint telesales to the Nexus S, does anyone know if Sprint ships the phone already activated?

 

[lingo622]

I think once you get the phone you have to activate it over another phone. But I last did this a few years ago so I'm not sure if the procedure has changed since.

Yeah, just wondering if I'm going to be stuck on phone with Sprint, or if I can just turn the Nexus on and enjoy...

 

[p00kienrayray]

You will be stuck with sprint, sorry.

You can also do the activation online at Sprint.com. That's how I activated my EVO when I switched from Blackberry.

Woo! Love it! Got one for the lady. Gtalk video is the best. Was messing around with nfc. Can send contacts and such from phone to phone. Fun.

Amazing how this is so much better than the epic.

I said this else where but just for people looking here. Best buy wouldn't give me 149 for my phone. I went to sprint for the 199. Sold my epic back to them. I saw the computer message for all those who had upgrade before they switched. Even though online it tells me half upgrade on their system it says eligible for teired override.

Best buy said they had no idea what I was talking about for 149. Rang up that way. I showed them the add on Their website and they override the price for me when I added a line.

Got mine yesterday in Salem OR, was afraid it may be sold out by the time I got to Colorado Springs. Probably just paranoia or anxiousness.

Got mine yesterday at a non corporate sprint store in MN. They price matched the 149 at bestbuy for my upgrade. So far it is so so and a change from my evo.

 

[NOMster]

How did u get them to price match? Sprint has never price matched anything for me.

God I hate these signatures
