Need deal on Sprint phone!

[FunkyD]

Hiya All,

I'm looking for a great deal on a Sprint phone. Prices/Suggestions are greatly appreciated.

All I really need (aside from the usual included stuff) is vibrate, so I'm leaning toward the Motorola StarTAC 7762. I know a few people with this one, and they seem to like it.

Links? Prices? Suggestions?

Thanx in advance ppl!

Take a look at Sanyo 4500, that is an awesome phone. You can get one of those for around $80-100

I got in on a Radioshack deal. Radioshack was offering 1000 minutes (200 day, 800 off peak) for $30/month (~$38 after taxes). This doesn't include free long distance, but it does include 1st incoming minute free, call waiting, call answer etc. Radioshack also offered to pay the activation fee. The sticky point is that you had to buy the phone at radioshack. I wasn't going to spend $150 on a phone, so I bought a Sanyo 4000 for about 1/2 price on 3bay and called sprint directly to match RadioShack's offer. I've had the phone about 4 months now. Very pleased. It costs about the same as a land line, but has SO much more utility.

I have a Qualcomm 2760 phone that I'd like to add sprint service. How do I do this? Just call Sprint, and they activate the phoen for me? DO I need to send it in, or do they activate it?

Thanks
