Interesting to hear that the CURVES are selling like "hotcakes" considering that the BOLD is on its way...
...hmm, curious...maybe just a marketing ploy me thinks?
...i'm trying to hold out for the BOLD...but it has been tempting to just run out and buy a CURVE now....
...must...hold......on...

uh, Sprint has a hard enough time getting the "real" story straight with all their employees. I doubt they are telling all the employees to lie and say that Curves are selling like hotcakes. And another thing, I already PLACED the order for a REPLACEMENT Curve before she said they were selling like hotcakes. She wasnt trying to "sell" me on a product. I already bought it a month ago and was just ordering a replacement. So me thinks your marketing ploy theory is garbago.06-12-08 04:34 PM - anytime. wow talk about great customer service! was it an authorized Sprint store? You would think they would be able to at least input your email for the tracking number like telesales does. Did they give you an order number? If they gave you an order number and it is a corp Sprint store you might be able to go on sprint.com and look up your order under the order look up link.thanks for the info Ninfan. I placed my order in the store and they told me they didn't have an ability to give me a tracking number and that it would show up when it showed up...sheesh!

Just go get the Curve. If and when the Bold is released for Sprint, you can throw your Curve on Ebay and get back quite a bit of your money. If the release date of the Curve is any indicator of how long you could be put off and have to wait for the Bold, I'd just get the Curve and not stress about it.06-12-08 06:54 PM - The Curve arrived, and so far I'm impressed. Easy to navigate, nice display, well built but much lighter than Hubby's Treo 755p. It was also very easy to import data from Hubby's old Treo. I had to call CS to provision the phone, and they gave me another $50 credit for extending the contact - that brought the phone price to about $80.
The phone seems to be provisioned - I've received messages from the server, and everything looks to be up, but the Curve hasn't yet received an actual email. (I did set up Hubby's email on the Sprint BlackBerry Internet Service site, and I've re-sent the service books. I'll need to troll the forum to figure out what I'm doing wrong...I'm sure it's "user error"
some tech support I've turned out to be! )
So far, so good!06-12-08 10:35 PM - Ha ha, turns out they forgot to add the BB plan to the phone - that's why some things worked and others did not. Thankfully with my employee discount plus a recurring $10/credit, the service will only cost us $14/month. And yes, we have both discounts on Ensemble.The Curve arrived, and so far I'm impressed.

Everything is working, and I'm starting to have a bit of BB envy...but I really do like my Touch. I'll like it better once we get the firmware update for the GPS.06-13-08 06:41 AM
Has anybody else ordered on either in person or telesales in the last few days and had a shorter shipping time?
I got mine on Friday too, but after a 3 day wait.
