And I am suppose to get a new phone since I hate my Rumor now. I really want the Instinct and my mom might have got it for me. We have the Everything Plan and are already with Sprint, (duh.) But my mom said it's 450 dollars. I'm not saying she is lying but, 100 to 450? And we can pick it up, well I guess we could. She also said her friend can get it off of this guy, on ebay. BUT, I thought everthing on ebay is used. I told her (not trying sound rude) but I don't want a used one. She said it's not used but for 300 bucks less? Thank you.

When you receive a phone call that you did not catch at the time right away and the person leaves you a voicemail, the phone then starts to receive the Visual Voicemail data, which tends to make the phone unavailable while redceiving the data, and it feels like the phone is frozen, stuck or unable to operate, when in fact it is working as design adn therefore you have to wait until it receives the information. Depending on the area you are located this could take a few seconds or may be longer. The iPhone not only has a better CPU to render graphics faster, it also runs on two bands which means, you can litterally receive phone calls and talk on the phone while browsing the internet at the same time! This feature with the iPhone makes the phone more stable, but this has nothing to do with the phone, in fact it has to do something with the network it is in. Originally Sprint was going towards the route of EVDV ro something like that, technology to allow simultaneously receive data and voice at the same time just like Sprint, but they drop the ball and they only got the EVDO Rev A. networking capabillity and therefore a phone that seems to freeze now and then because of this limitation.

Where do you get the price of $200 to $300 for services that one has to get? Stop spreading FUD about the iPhone. The Instinct is not a bad phone, but it's not a killer. The iPhone is a powerful small mobile PC platform that just happens to have a phone & MP3 player built in. The new update on June 9 will make that much clearer.

The IPhone has services that you have to get when get the phone and makes the monthly bill at least 200-300 a month ask anybody. Sprint has a unlimtited data plan for 30 plus your voice plan and thats it or the all in one unlimited for 99. I'll definitely be getting one.
