Just Bought my PPC-6800 (Mogul) for $288 In The Store!!!

I got my PPC-6800 as an upgrade. My contract was up so I got the $150 instant rebate and another $100 mail in rebate after the phone is on my account for 30 days. So after rebate my cost will be $299.00.
I also got my wife the Razor 3 too.

I did it via the Sprint on line store and that allowed me to waive the $18 activation fee. (I remember last year it was $36!). I kept my original 1500 minute plan with my wife's line and added the $25 data plan.

I test drove the PPC-6700 1.5 years ago, but it had soo many issues that I could not tolerate keeping it. I waited till now cause I knew they would upgrade the unit.

So far after a week, I like the PPC-6800. I have to get used to the multi screen thing to dial and find things. Not as easy to drive and use the phone. I'll be reviewing some of these tweaks to see how I can make it a little more easy to use.

I'm not one of those guys that has to use every damn feature and install every tweak available. Just because you can do it does not mean you should..>LOL. I use the phone, contacts, email and occasionally the Internet to find some info on the run. No word docs or power point... Overall, it does what I need and it seems to do it well compared to the 6700. I like it!

(out of the box after a soft reset it has 26.75 mb of program memory remaining)

Thanks.

It seems as though Alltel has the 6800 before VZW.

Alltel has good Cell coverage where I live, but they are way behind on their 3g network in my area. I would go with Sprint or wait for VZW to get it.

I'm going to get the Mogul through Sprint on their SERO plan to get away from VZW's ridiculous data rates.
