something interesting I saw was that if you are just renewing your contract and are eligible the phone costs you 299.99. Now I don't now if you are eligible for the mail-in rebate or not. If you are a new customer, they give it to you for 199.99 upfront with no mail-in. Something to consider

Walmart, BB, and RS all taking pre orders and not doing the MIR. Sprint employees are losing some serious $$.

Well, Sprint stores need to ditch the antiquated MIR to compete.....

They also need employees who can relate to the power user/smartphone user/educated user. I know there are some Sprint store employees who don't fall into this category but its IMO a small portion.
