Sprint store finally gets some evo's limited time only

[textbook7]

For those of you who have ordered Evo's on sprint.com, how many days did it take from the time you placed the order until it was delivered?

I ordered mine on Monday morning and it arrived via UPS yesterday (Weds). Love it so far!

I showed up at a Sprint store this morning (corporate store, not a franchise outlet) right when they opened... they told me they had ended their "waiting list" and the EVO's were now first come first serve basis, and that they'd call me when UPS showed up. I sat down at the starbucks next door, and had an EVO in less than an hour and a half. The guy that sold me the phone said the trick is to show up early at a corporate store.

If trying a corporate store, early morning is a good approach. By the way, I went to a nearby Corporate store (in CT) yesterday to see the Epic, and asked about EVO in-store inventory. They said they'd received EVOs on Monday but all sold out same day.

i love walking through the door to see a nice box with gadgets in it. I received rev 003 with 2.2 built in.

I had pre-ordered an Epic from RS. I stopped by a sprint store yesterday and played with the Epic and Evo side by side for a good 45 min. I ended up canceling my Epic and I placed an order for an EVO online with sprint. Glad I played with em first. EVO is way nicer for me.

I think I have finally settled on the EVO over the Epic. I am coming over from a Palm Pre (Instinct / Treo 700wm before that). I paid the $50 and put myself on the waiting list at BB a few days back for the white version. I am just hoping it comes in soon or BB.com gets another shipment soon. I missed the boat a week ago when they came in as my upgrade date was 9/1. I must admit I feel somewhat silly waiting for the white version when I can simply order one at Sprint.com right now..

Change that "can" to a "could." lol Theyre all gone again!

Definitely no shortage of Evos at the Sprint store where I live.

The iPhone 4 was a little more of a catch, but it wasn't too difficult to find.

Glad I ordered mine this last go around. I am loving my EVO.

I thought I would miss my Palm Pre but no looking back so far.

At my local best buy they said they've had some arrive everyday for the last three days. Granted they sell out everyday, but they are starting to trickle in

What hardware version are all these new EVO'S rocking?

New EVO owner here (former iPhone 3G owner). My wife and I decided that we were getting EVOs, so we went shopping Thursday afternoon. None at Shack, didn't carry them at Wally World, so we stopped at a Sprint Store. They had 1 in stock, had just received 10 the day before. My wife told me to get that one, she'd get one on the next shipment. Well, a couple minutes later in walks the FedEx rep with 5 more! So we both have an EVO. Mine is still pretty stock but she has customized hers a LOT!

Funny how they still seem to have plenty of epics though...

Picked up my Evo at a Sprint store yesterday. I got lucky, called the nearest Sprint store to my house & they told me they had 2 on hand so I reserved one and picked it up after work. The rep at the store said all the Evo they receive are sold within a day. She said the Epic wasn't moving very well. They had a lot of those in stock. I played with one while they were activating my account and I wasn't too impressed with it. The screen is nice but I don't think it's that much better then the Evo and I was never a fan of the slide out keyboards.
