No one as of yet has posted in the South Florida area. Hopefully someone brings one home

There is a guy that claims to have 5 in hand here on the Seattle craigslist...$400 each. I'll wait until June 4th...

For me, the extra premium was worth it. I was going to get an Evo 4g when it came out and I'm only 10 months into my 2 yr contract with Sprint so after the ETF + the cost of the Evo 4g + California taxes on the original price, the cost would've been comparable. And this way, no new contract to sign or rebate to deal with.

I see your point. I am currently on AT&T using an iPhone 3GS, so waiting works for me. I am hoping to sell the 3GS for close to enough to cover the cost of the EVO plus my ETF.

wow someone has one close to me for $450 but ive pre-ordered already. I think i can wait...... .=(

Look on eBay. Noone in PA is going to have one so I bought one on eBay. Hefty premium including the overnight shipping I requested but totally worth it. I get it on Saturday! yay!

damn. there is one guy close by me but he's asking close to $700. i think im going to wait until the 4th.

yeah that is just silly. Wait it out like the rest of us and have some scratch to buy some cool accessories... like the HDMI dock or something.

Yeah the people putting them up for 700 are nuts. Call and offer them 400-500 and they will sell.
I just bought mine from some guys from another country and couldn't use at home, they are here for another week (SF). They had 2 more and were willing to sell for 450, they asked me if I knew anyone else who wanted to buy them.
I referred them here... so they may pop up in this thread.
O/ Roberto
Thanks for the EVO.

I have one to see and I am based in Cupertino and San Jose if anyone is interested.
I think $450 is too low, these guys must really want to get rid of it...
It includes a month's worth of unlimited usage and an 8Gb SD card and the ability to get the Google I/O plan...
I posted it on Craigslist for $600, but I'll let it go here for $550.
Let me know if you are interested.

What is the google I/O plan?

"Sprint is offering Google I/O attendees a special discount on Everything Plus Data Plans for new Sprint customers or existing customers who wish to add an additional line of service."

"After 30 days:
We would love to have you as a permanent Sprint customer.
Sprint is offering Google I/O attendees a special discount on Everything Plus Data Plans for new Sprint customers or existing customers who wish to add an additional line of service. This special offer is only available to Google I/O attendees. To participate in this offer, please call 1-877-527-8405 to activate your plan."
I don't know what the details are...
Anyone else care to elaborate on the "special discount"?

Buying at a sprint store: waiting list?

So, i just called a sprint store near me, and I was told that there are no pre-orders at sprint stores, but i have to get on the waiting list which is available on sprints website, which i'm not sure if she meant it's available now, or will be soon. Can anyone explain this to me?

Where does it say that radioshack has no MIR. As I understand it they do have a MIR. I prefer 100$ less on initial investment to free 20$.
I preordered with Radioshack on Fri. No MIR, and free $20 giftcard. It's true.

There just aren't any RSs near where I work. Besides, I found out about RS after I pre-ordered from BB.
If you can find one, it'd be worth it to get a refund on your BB gcard and just get to a Shack location.
i've been reading some other forums, seems like the only downside about not buying directly from sprint is that it can be harder to get fast and easy phone swaps at the local sprint store if something is wrong - sprint stores will apparently only use the TEP to change a phone if you didn't buy from them (may have to wait for them to send the phone away and then get it back). don't know how much of this is true, but there was extended discussion about it on a palm forum regarding how people had problems after getting the new palm pre from other vendors.

The 25% discount she gets is already attached to her account. You can go to a RadioShack (or bby) and that will not be affected.
(And no, I can't answer the original question either. An online waiting list sounds bogus though..)
went to my local sprint store, corporate, asked about a wait list, they said they didn't have one but that it was available from sprint.com after clicking on the evo add. I think they are confused about the difference between a waiting list and email updates . . .

No, when you leave the store at preorder, you walk out with your $50 on a giftcard to be used toward your purchase. ($199-$50 giftcard preorder=$149.99). When you come in and pay the remainder and pick up your Evo, you will receive your $20 giftcard toward anything you'd like.
That's on a per-phone basis, so for you, you'd be getting $20 per each phone.

Have mom go to a RS, let them open an account for her (wont have to get phones yet) and pre-order. All she has to do is tell them to add her discount AT THE VERY BEGINNING of the application process and it will be ready and waiting when you go get the phones on the 4th. (And since you will have preordered, you will have them guaranteed for you!)
RadioShacK is the place to get the phone.
Radioshack does not have MIR, 199.99 for new and upgrades, free $20 for accessories, Better service than the sprint store guaranteed, No lines, you phone will be there waiting on you not the other way around. Chose what time you want to come and get your phone.
We preordered through our companies evpdiscount.com website and the phones were 174.99 each.
For me it's www.evpdiscount.com/meridian
is there an activation fee at radioshack?
My work will pay for electronics, so I buy at sprint for $300, give them the bill, get my $100 rebate, then get $300 back from work = -100 for me.

Any Ideas on How to Get an EVO for less than $450?

I'm just looking to join the dev community and do some documentation for DC. I don't need to do anything underhanded like complain to Sprint and whine for a free upgrade or whatever. Just curious to see if anyone knows how or if there are any deals that'll knock a few bucks off the non-upgrade price for me.
PS: I can also wait, I don't need the phone immediately. Looking for July sometime when they're back in stock.
There's a guy who posted earlier with thread title (evo 4g sucks), maybe he'll be inclined to sell it?

Can't imagine why he would want to keep it since it suks so bad..?
Search Bing for Wirefly. They're selling it for $480, but Bing Cashback will net you fifty dollars. In total, it will come out to $430. That isn't much of a difference, but it IS cheaper.
Or, if you're really lazy, you can follow this link: http://www.wirefly.com/eCommerce/SpecialOffer.aspx?cid=35808_4da6dc3a520b46b9832a393cf5eaa11d.

I am not sure if you have a current phone with sprint. I got the Hero in November '09 and was not quite at my upgrade. I was able to go to the sprint store and trade in my Hero for $80. So the Evo was $449 - $80 which I paid $369 for it. The good thing is November if they come out with a faster phone I will be able to sell my Evo because it is unlocked and get a new phone with the upgrade discount and it will make up the difference.

I think this is my best choice in all honesty. I have the same situation.
I COULD sell my launch HERO on eBay or Craigslist but I'm not confident that anyone would buy it for more than $100 anyway. A piece of the volume rocker cracked and some of the metallic paint is wearing on the back button.
I believe I'm also a premiere customer or whatever they call that, so yeah in October/November of this year if they release a new phone, I'd be eligible for $150 off or something.
EDIT: Another idea is to grab the EVO on Wirefly and get the $50 cash back, that's $430. Then try to give back my HERO for $80, that's roughly $350 for an EVO at that point. $350 isn't bad. It's kind of like a moron not mailing in his rebate and then ordering overnight shipping and having it delayed for 4 weeks. I could be comfortable being that moron.

I am not sure Sprint will do a trade in unless you buy the phone from them. If you decide to do this, ask to keep the battery for the hero. It is the same battery the Evo uses.
Get one for $450 and sell your previous phone to subsidize it. I got $225 for my Hero.

try this. have someone else put the phone under their name so you will get it for $199, then do a change of liability and put the phone in your name. not sure if they pay an etf cause they are transferring the contract to you. if not your all good. what i did was open up a business account and only paid 199 then i ported my old number to tmobile. 3 days later i ported it to my business account. paid an etf but only paid 199 for the phone and can sell my old phone to balance out the etf.
I ended up having to grab it off the Sprint website because Wirefly, Newegg and all the others stopped offering the phone. Unfortunately this means that I have to pay a hefty tax for the device bringing the total up to about $495 for the phone. To subsidize this though, I'm going to attempt to sell my HERO for about $100. I might even try to participate in the recycling program instead so that I can get $80 back and keep my battery/sd-card.
Either way, if I find that the phone sucks hard, I can just turn around and sell it. Also, if something more awesome comes out by October (my 1-year contract mark), I can upgrade to it and sell the EVO for a decent price.
consider this idea.. only an idea...
try Best Buy.. so they can give you instant rebate.
tell them you want to cancel your contract..pay the fee. i am guess it is $150.
get new contract.. have them port the number to new contract. get the EVO for $199.
Trade the Hero into BB for $80-100 (i have heard some have gotten $110)
if it works. 199 +150 - $100 = 250
maybe.. a shot

Wont work.
a. Unless you have another line available to add, you can't turn one off and then add a new one right away.
b. You can't port a number from a deactivated line (and usually not within the same carrier.)
I suppose one could try to pay the ETF to have Sprint at least change the contract from 2-yr to month to month. Although they'd probably be confused by this, and probably wouldn't let you do it to begin with. Then just sign up for a new plan, and start a new 2-yr contract. I really doubt that could work.
Alternatively, I suppose if one didn't want to keep their phone number...they could just ETF, and purchase the new phone and contract.
Really I'm not willing to **** around with any of that though. I was more interested to see if someone like...knew a guy who had a trick or coupon code, or had access to some kind of super secret "knock-a-few-bucks-off-for-a-friend" deal.

NEW contract, being the key phrase. Before anyone asks, no they do not do upgrades for Sprint. Amazon has some deal with Sprint where they cannot handle upgrades at this time. At least this is what I have read numerous times.
They still charge the $36 activation fee.
Soo... Do you think "New" contract include converting a single line to a family line and adding Epic's as the add-a-lines?
I don't see how to contact Amazon wireless for doing these kind of family plan changes with adding lines.
Yeah man but if your at the end of your service contract it works to, also alot of us that are getting the epic 4g are switching from carriers like verizon for it, anyway the cheapest it's been is $250 so atleast credit it me with the find man don't knock it, this is useful to some people,

laugh out Loud Kind Sir, The update to said gentlema's post regarding the availability of The Epic 4G through amazon.com transcended naught but an evening before my original post. I Have no petty concerns for being the first at anything with regards to the internet; I only aspired to save coin from my fellow man's purse.
plus one collegiate points for the attempted correction please, minus the 5 i have to award to you for quoting an Epic movie leaves me at negative four =( yes the pun was slightly intended when i said Epic but only to the extent that would allow me to say no pun intended. good day Sir!
Just so everyone knows, right now amazon.com is showing as "Usually ships within 2 - 3 weeks." for me. Not sure why it suddenly jumped such a huge amount, it might be some amazon.com safe estimate thing, but it definitely has me worried that this phone will sell out. However they are offering it for a killer price.
it now says ships in 2-3 weeks!!!!!
im sorry, id much rather get it on launch from sprint for 350, and then get my $100 back 4 weeks later when you are just unboxing your phone
hmm should I go this route? no taxes ( about a $60 dollar savings here in Los Angeles ) plus I get $40 cash back if I use my amazon card. so thats a $150 savings..aside the instant rebate.
edit: its a no brainer. I just placed the order Im saving a good amount for the wait. est ship is September 14, 2010 - September 21, 2010.
So I guess the dates aren't arbitrary or random. Great to know that it's first come, first serve. I ordered mines yesterday morning and ship dates show sept 8-9.
Come the 31-1st if it doesn't ship and if I can happen to get one else where, I'll probably cancel. But deal was too good to pass up, so I had to get my place in line. I too hope it doesn't sell out, but as long as I can cancel before it actually ships, no biggie.
I like to look at it as insurance, if I happen to not be able to get it else where, at the very least I know I got a chance getting it on that date (so I hope).
I had the evo by the way.. returned it, but once it was sold out, it was sold out. So I'm making sure I get my epic before they go as well.

I just did this as a back up as well, but with the cost savings I might just stick with the Amazon order.
Do you know if we have to pay the activation fee when signing up through Amazon?
And if so, are we able to get it waived by using the AAA discount by calling sprint?
Edit: Looks like Amazon does charge the activation fee, bummer. But I have heard of people calling after activation to have work discounts or AAA discounts added and Sprint refunding the activation fee.

Anyone know where I can get the Lapdock for cheap or anyone selling?

Let me know guys. Thanks!
Got one at best buy for $399 but its.going back. Its overrated.
With all the threads today I'm actually trying to decide whether or not to ship my iPhone offto Gazelle and return the Atrix.
Powerful phone and very responsive.
Just not wild about being at ATT and Motorola mercy for software update someday.

There are things I love/hate about both the iPhone and Atrix, so I'm seriously caught in the middle. Any thoughts about why I shouldn't ditch the Atrix yet? You said wait, but I'm not sure "what" you wanted me to wait for
Some are selling on ebay for around $350.
not spending 500 bucks...
I'm in with the "cheaper dock" thing
I want the dock, I find the idea to be genial, but I do not see why I should pay $500 for essentially a screen, a keyboard and a battery.
So, anyone know of a cheaper source (or when - if - prices eventually go down), let me know. I'll keep subscribed to this thread
As I mentioned. Best Buy - $399.00 ($100 off)
You can order it from Motorola for around 360; granted I took my Atrix back before I got a chance to use it.
I love the idea but a lot of reviews and people with first hand experience said it was a little laggy.
If it was 200 bucks I'd grab one today though.

Not anymore, you can't. It is not available anymore in Moto's online store. Before they took the accessory down, they bumped up the price again to US$499.
Not sure if I even want to spend 400 bucks on it (bestbuy). I personally think that is still too much for this piece of hardware.
It's $299 from ATT after a $100 MIR. I can't post links yet, but just search for lapdock and it comes up.

Only applies for people on an AT&T plan. Where this does not apply, this is the same price as letstalk.com.
Thanks for pointing it out though, this is another place to order. And a good deal for AT&T customers
It seems the Lapdock is now on sale in Canada for a mere CAD 330 (as opposed to US$ 399 being the cheapest in US). Unfortunately, it seems futureshop does not ship internationally, so it seems there is no way for me to order it from there.
This, however, brings up an interesting pricing question: is Moto test-driving a different price in Canada, just to see how it sells? Does that mean the US price is going to drop, or does it mean the Canadian price is going to go up later on?
More importantly: how do I get this shipped internationally from Canada? Any ideas?

If it were me, I'd have it shipped to a postal annex or USP store or something, then have them intercept it and forward the mail to any address of your choosing.

Best US deal I have seen, ordering next week!

Just found this deal. Unlocked for $599, best price I have found. Anyone dealt with this place before?

Be careful...they use to be called "Exoticphones.com"
I'd be careful too...
How can they offer a discount with an ATT plan????
Seems suspicious to me...but good luck if you go with it!
Im only guessing here but I bet a phone vendor could sign you up for ATT with any phone, like an iPhone. Then turn around and sell that iPhone at retail to another person. But give you the 2 year discount on the Note.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Vendor signs you up for a new 2 year contract with at&t. They choose iphone 4s as your new phone. They keep the 4s and sell it for like $600 bucks. They are then able to offer you the note for $599
I would cut the middle man out and just do it yourself if you don't already have an at&t contract or are not in upgrade status.
Just odered with overnight shipping. Will let you guys know how it goes. Im beyond excited!

Did you order for $599, or did you do the contract? If legit, the contract is very tempting.

The contract is only $200 cheaper. If you instead extend your contract with buying an iphone 4s, you'll come out far ahead. You'll pay $200 (instead of $400) and you can sell it on ebay for $600 at least then use that money for the Note. So in effect the iphone route is at least $200 cheaper for the same end result. That is assuming this is legit, and ignoring ebay fees (use craigslist.)

I also just called them up. I work in NYC and they seem to offer local pickup, so what better way to see if they actually have it in stock then to walk over there...The person that answered said it was out of stock and due back in, in about 2 weeks.
When I pressed for a more specific date, he just said he wasn't sure, but about 2 weeks.
...All kinds of red flags here.

Thanks. I was partially looking at it as a convenience issue (not having to deal with reselling, no fees, no uncertainty of what it ultimately sells for), but you're right, $200, or even $100, is a big chunk for convenience. But ultimately, it's not very convenient if "electropirise" screws you over.

Thanks for doing that, good to get some insight before blindly trusting them.

So its $494 on there without a contract?
is $399.00 with a contract. so add 95 to that?
What you posted makes no sense, but i know what you were trying to say.
You want people to pay 95 more full price compared to the full price on that other site in the OP
Wait, that also makes no sense

This is a pretty good deal -- except no way to get warranty. Expansys USA has a great reputation on resellerratings.com.
Will probably get mine thru ebay so I can get a SquareTrade warranty.

Wow total came out to be $694.99 not too shabby! Thanks for the code!!!
Watching this thread since I wouldn't advice anyone to order anything from that website and I'm really curious to see if they will deliver.
There's another thread discussing the website that OP bought the phone. Always use the search button.
Just wanted to make everyone aware that Amazon is selling Notes for $660 shipped. That is the cheapest I've seen ANYWHERE on the web. I picked one up today through amazon, fulfilled by the oem shop.
Hopefully I'll get a new unit that hasn't been opened.
Yesasia.com has it about $650. I only bought small things from the site,yet I feel it does business alright.

I got one today and already received tracking with it delivered Thursday ... it was transformersandgsmphones on Amazon. Paid $669 with 2 day shipping. Not bad!
Sent from my Beastly SGS2!
OP, did you get it?
Anyone know if the OP got his Note next day, or at all?
Dang, Expansys-USA is up to a whopping $779.99 for theirs.
