Re: handset upgrade fee...
Yup... its a bs fee indeed. I wish Sprint would drop theirs... frickin $34 "new device" activation fee for a phone thats already been previously activated. 
Maybe this will be the beginning of similar removals of BS fees from other carriers.... I can hope.

1 edit | I doubt it... it will just be passed off as another fee, or rate increase somewhere (sms costs fractions of a penny, yet people are charged up to $0.25/message ).
I think they'll just bury it in the cost of the handset. |

$0.25 to send then another $0.25 to receive!

I switch phones all the time, and just upgraded to a Sprint HTC Touch Diamond and didn't get charged any kind of upgrade or activation fee. I got it in store |

Sprint will "upgrade" you for free if you call on Arbor day during a total eclipse of the sun while listening to the Marine Corps band playing Home on the Range and watching a badminton match between two guys named Ichabod. (whew!) |
