Actually, thats nto what this means at all. If you pay attention every nine months or so Sprint does this. Especially when they are about to get new phones.

It would have been HUGE news for everyone I was selling with that there would be no MIR period for a while. You must be mixing corp stores up with retail or something else.

Keep telling yourself that. There's no Evo on the horizon. It's not Christmas.

Actually there are 2 EVO's on the horizon. I don't know about the rebate thing... I always bought my stuff at Best Buy so I don't have to worry about rebates.
To tell you the truth, the rebates were the only thing that sucked about Sprint in my opinion.
