How soon will accessories likely be available?

I bought my HD Media Link from Sprint for $89.99 +tax! Next thing on the check list is the 64GB sd card on the same day I purchase the phone!

Do they still offer the premier accessories discount or did that go the way of yearly upgrades as well? I haven't purchased an accessory directly from sprint in a long time.

If it is still around are restrictions of what can be purchased with it? IE would the discount not apply to the MediaLink.

the discount is still there. the media link is an accessory so technically it can be used with the discount...

Your absolutely right! I was ask if I wanted to buy another accessorie yesterday to receive a 20% of the Media Link, I would've save $18 if I acted on it! But I didn't see anything else I like!

I'll probably just order a bunch of cheap no-brand cases.

When I got my EVO 4G I bought a $25 case in a Sprint store that broke after a month. Later I bought a pack of no name cases for around $10 online. I got another one with an accessory kit I bought. None of them have broken yet. Although I did scratch up the phone by using the tooth side of my key instead of a coin to open the case.

I am kind of frustrated by the cases out there...However, I think I found the one. I think I am going to wait for TPU cases to come out with their "Matte Back Black" for the 4G LTE.

Relatively cheap plus after some video searches, it looks like this phone case is the best option for keeping the beautiful 4G LTE design intact and not adding any bulk.

This is great news! Now, we just need otterbox to hurry up with the cases. I may have to keep my phone boxed up until I can get a decent case. I tend to be rough on my phones.

Why they didn't just ship them regardless of the delay is beyond me... It would have been the perfect chance to stock up before the EVOs arrival.. I have one on hold at radioshack when they arrive.. Hopefully shortly after the phone

But there are no pictures? I guess it's just as well, I'm already having a hard time deciding between the other cases I like so far ;) Although.... pink or purple "glitterflex" sound pretty interesting :D

When did he say that he was getting the "other" Otterbox's in I couldn't make it out?.... By other I assume he meant the defenders.. Since pink is only offered with the commuter

He said tomorrow 5/22 (Today). Yup and Sprint Rep did say "Defender" Otterbox. If you pick up two items. The 20% off is not a bad deal. I got the Media Link and Car Dock for $100 smack-a-roonies. :D I'm sure there's better deals out there. I got in, got out, and got it home :)

Is that the LTEvo specific car dock, or a universal? When I preordered the only dock they listed on sprint.com was a universal one.

Did they happen to have the black case with the red HTC logo?

Nope, they had white one with grey accent around the outside(Soft/hard shell), which I thought was pretty cool. Blue soft gel case, not working :p Then a carbon fiber hard shell, I thought might like cool with a red kickstand popped out the back. Pretty much every LTEVO assesory you could think of the Sprint rep put on the counter. Kid in a candy shop, understatement :p I could feel my dang heart pounding :D I wanted say "I'll take all!" LOL. Then people start gathering around. Mercifully, the Sprint rep asked for my PH# and the video ends there.

Probably good thing they didn't have a real LTEVO there, ROFL :eek:
