I've got a question...how long do you think it will take for 3rd party applications? When I grabbed my centro I had the sole intent of holding on to it until the instinct comes out (but im sure the shack will have some sort of contest with sprint and give one of us an instinct...just so happens when we have a contest, we NEVER HAVE CUSTOMERS) and the availability of 3rd part applications is one of the things that made me fall in love with my centro, and I've got an assload of them. Seeing as this phone has been out for some time (with a bad-ass 5 megapixel cam) in asia I believe, are there, or are they working on extra applications? because I know there are some out there for an iphone, and I really wanna play my old school nintendo games on...

I'm not sure about the third party apps, but I highly doubt the thing about radio shack. Best Buy is the only indirect retailer to have the phone for 60 days, so you might have to wait to win one there.

But so long as thier employees dont work off of comission, they'll never have the knoledge needed, or the sales skills needed to really help a customer in what he needs. The only people who know ANYTHING at best buy are the geek squad (cause they charge 350 dollars to do an overclock on a laptop that's a 3 minute bios change...) and they do all of this while searching for thier level 12 blacksmiths sword with extra damage...and I thought us sh...

You might be surprised at how things are changing at best buy. The new best buy mobile is actually it's own store (SWAS) and has a much different approach than the rest of best buy. There is an entirely different training system than the main store. So when it comes to sales skills (we do have amazing incentives actually, just not commission) and knowledge, all of that is changing. I personally absolutely love working in best buy mobile. So while I agree about the rest of best buy in general, Mobile is a whole new ball game now.
