If anybody is think about getting this phone but the $99 price is holding you back Let's Talk has it for free. This includes upgrades. Cell Phones from wireless carriers Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless, BlackBerry
Don't forget that Amazon is also listing the device for $0.01!
Amazon.com: HTC 8XT (Sprint): Cell Phones & Accessories
Good to know. Either way, anybody apprehensive about spending $99 need no longer worry! I wonder if there will be similar deals when the ATIV S Neo is released.At amazon it is $79 for upgrades. At let's talk it is free on upgrade.

That's what I've been waiting for I haven't "paid" for a cell phone for myself in maybe 8 years (makes paying $300 for my wife's iPhone much more tolerable). Never had a problem being a couple months behind the curve. Besides, my upgrade path never really lined up with the new device roll-outs.
Edit: Just pulled the trigger. I have multiple lines, their site didn't seem to ask which line wanted upgraded. I hope this doesn't become a problem, though their retail and customer service ratings are in the 9/10 range.
Faced the exact same issue. The order summary kept indicating that "Line 2" would be upgraded which is not technically the one I wanted. My order process, however, did eventually ask which phone # the upgrade was for, perhaps because I first did the "Check Upgrade Eligibility."
Either way, I planned all along to "upgrade" a secondary line and then once I got the phone call Sprint and have it switched to my primary line. I've done this before at both a Sprint B&M and a Best Buy, so hopefully there will be no issue.
Also, LetsTalk says most orders are approved and shipped same day as long as the order is placed before 2pm Central. I placed my order a couple of hours ago but the status is still "Carrier Approval." Anyone have any experience regarding this? If you can't tell, I'm very anxious to get my new phone and almost shelled out the $150 at Sprint B&M for instant gratification!
Hmmm... I started off with the "check for upgrade availability", so that may be why it didn't ask? It took about 2-3hrs before the status moved from "carrier approval" to the shipped status. I'll have mine on Monday if their time estimate is any indication.
Question for Jonathan, do they ship it already activated to the number you requested to upgrade, can I just slap it on my other line, or will I have to put it on the line I upgraded, then swap phones around? I almost always order from my local BB (who don't even HAVE this phone in their system yet!), once or twice ordering from the local Sprint store, Never ordered a cell phone in this way before.
So on amazon, even though I was an upgrade, the price stayed at .01 for the entire time, even called to confirm and they confirmed it. Where are folks seeing the 79 dollar price at?
hmm okay, went and checked again and now its showing the 79.99, but my order is processed at the .01... guess I need to call Amazon.. it went through the whole check of my number, I was selected on existing account and everything.
I forsee a fight with Amazon coming up.. and damn it, I was stoked to get this for a penny...
