Can an Free Epic solve an "Epic" number of my issues.....WHY YES!
I have been a frustrated Pre user for just over 1 year now. I started with a Handspring Treo almost a decade ago and have been happy with Palm devices for all those years....until the Pre. While WebOS is nice, the hardware, apps, lag, etc.... are quite frustrating for a impatient quasi-power user like myself and I'm finally DONE!
So now here I sit, looking at the Epic that seems to have everything I want. Months ago I decided that Android was for me even though every other device I own is a Mac (I run my business on a mac). Yes, iPhones are nice and would be quite compatible with my current technology platform, the problem is that I'd end up doubling my monthly price tag for my family plan and have a phone with a crummy voice connection and overpriced data and texting package! Months ago, it became quickly apparent that the next device I would need would be an Android device. With so many advances in hardware, apps, software, etc... it is really a no brainer!
Yes, the Evo is nice, but with the Epic I get the physical keyboard, amoled screen and a few other key features that set it apart for me. So why do I need a free one? As a Sprint Premier member, I can get a new phone but still have to shell out $250 which is quite a bit. I'm willing to do it since I use the phone non-stop for work and home use, but THAT DOESN'T SOLVE MY OTHER PROBLEM....MY WIFE! Don't get me wrong, I love my wife and I honestly don't know how I landed such a great one. The issue is she needs a new phone as well and we just can't afford to lay down $500 for 2 phones. I'd like us to be on the same platform (Android) but the Hero, Instinct and Moment are a far cry from the quality of the Epic and the woman who has born me 3 kids deserves the best.
Bottom line: A free Epic would solve my phone issues (get that Pre outta here!), my wife's phone issues, my financial issues, marital issues and give me an Epic day to look back on. Thanks for the opportunity all! Here's hoping......
