I saw that and wondered why they felt the need to advertise their unbiased sales associates...

Used to love going to Best Buy. Last few visits were dismal. No customer service at all and selection of products was terrible. Really don't see myself going back.

I could see someone painting their naked body with bestbuy's logo front and back. It would make my day.

I think they were saying unbiased because they are unbiased to carrier, not to device.

And I've personally had no problems at my local best buy. The techs there have always been nice and they do have a great selection of everything they should.

Yeah but they don't carry u.s. cellular. So that throws out their every carrier statement.

Obviously Best Buy is terrible, because they're sales associates don't push Blackberry's on people. I mean, heaven forbid in todays day and age, people actually want the most bang for their buck..and want a device with a FFC, media streaming capabilites, and app ecosystems, as well as something with bigger than a 3.2" screen! Seriously! What are consumers thinking these days?

You missed my point completely. They are unbiased as to which carrier they want you to purchase from out of the carriers they support (which are the 4 major carriers in the US... I've honestly only heard of US Cellular through CB... I live in the US and have NEVER seen an add for them on TV or seen a US Cellular store, ever (and I travel a lot).
