Just got a Pre
 

Sort of... they were sold out when I went to the store but they are shipping one to me in 3-5 days.

I got a family plan with three lines, unlimited data and text messaging on all lines and 1500 minutes per month to share and unlim nights and weekends at 7. for 112 + taxes.... of course I went deal hunting for that price though!

Oh yeah.. and I managed to get them to throw in a free Airave (both service and the box itself waived for my customer lifetime at sprint)

Anyone use or try to Pre yet? I have heard pretty good things. I have no interest in gaming on the thing, it's just my work horse =)

i havent tried it myself, but a guy i ran into at work today had one

Sweet.. Post an update about it when you get it. I have the instinct phone but i cracked the screen the other day. $100 bucks to get a new one even with insurance :cry:. I've been strongly considering upgrading to the pre. So let us know how it goes when you get it!

im debating whether or not to try my hand at developing an app for it... i just can't think of anything good

A friend of mine just picked his Pre up today, and is cancelling his AT&T contract and using his iPhone as just an iPod.

He loves the iPhone, just sick of dealing with AT&T's crap. Can't wait until another carrier gets the iPhone.

^ That's THE main reason I wouldn't consider an iPhone.. I got sick and tired of ATT's nonsense. For data + messaging on three lines like I got at sprint it would be 120 dollars at ATT... and that's not even including any voice plan!!!

Yea....I really hope Verizon gets the iPhone sometime in 2010 like all the grumblings keep saying they might. I guess only time will tell for sure.
