Where do I even start?
Helio is done, gone, over, service is bye bye in 7 days from this post, May 25th; lights out. I need a replacement for my Ocean.
I pre-ordered the Evo. When I went to get a Sprint phone today (temp, to bridge the May 25th-June 4th gap) they told me that back in 2001, when I closed my business, I left a $422 bill. Whoops! If I recall, I tried to cancel all 4 or 5 phones we had, and they claimed I'd have to keep paying for 30 days post billing. I told them to go pound sand.
But that's linked to my SS number...9 years later. Ugh...whoops!
So, now I've got a $50 Best Buy gift card, a Zagg screen protector on order, and a phone that I probably won't be able to activate without paying $422 extra.
Switch to something else? New carrier? Here's a quick rundown of more goofiness:
-On top of everything else, I cracked the screen on my Helio last night, so NOW would be a nice time for a phone.
-My hands are huge. If the Dell mini 5 is coming, I'm getting it! Bigger is better for me.
-Will the 4g coverage in Tampa even stretch to me in downtown St. Petersburg? No point in the 4g if not.
-I have no shame is trying TMobile for 30 days, then Verizon, etc...If they all offer 30 day returns. There are a LOT of Android devices coming.
-I have no issue with an unlocked device on Metro PCS, etc.
-I've got a stupid $50 gift card to Best Buy now, so TMobile and Verizon might be the only companies I can use it with.
-If Helio takes up to 3 days to port, where will my current number ring to May 25-??
I want a bad ass camera, on a big ass phone, and not a lot of hassle. What to do? TMobile's new $50 unlimited plan looks nice, and I will see what they have in 30 days?
Will my pre-order spot be worth anything to someone on June 4th? Maybe Sprint will end up like Verizon and be scrambling for weeks to fill orders?
