Guess that answers THAT question...

RMS=Retail Management System

RMS is the system corporate stores use for, well... everything. I was looking for a SKU for the RAZR and I saw there was a SKU for the Q! There is no price for it yet but I would be VERY surprised if we don't get it in the next few months! And no, that wasn't a stupid question... ๐Ÿ˜‰

I thought that someone stated that their is a sku for everything sprint tries. And just because it has a sku doesn't mean anything as allot never make it to the stores!

RMS sku's are for shipping and oredering, it would not make sense to have a SKU un RMS for something that isn't coming out.

well according to a cooperate manager from a sprint store that is not right. Just because its in RMS doesn't mean its coming out. There is allot of things in it that never came out.

USUALLY stuff thats in RMS will be carried, but once in a while they will put a SKU in and then decide not to carry the product. It doesn't happen often but it does happen. It is seldom enough that I can infer that a product with an assigned SKU in RMS WILL be carried by Sprint, hence my OP.

please do not make the leap "if the sku is in rms then we must be selling it" that is a hugely wrong assumption. the htc 5050 has a sku in rms! so does the samsung i700 along with the samsung i550. and the sanyo 8200 game pad for that matter! every phone hat sprint has ever done a field trial with has a sku in rms. so do not assume that sprint is getting the q because it is in rms.

If you had read my reply I said that I would be SURPRISED if we did't get the Q. I made no guarantee.

Ahhhhh yes....another acronym. And, FDT stands for.....?
Sorry ๐Ÿคญ I'm merely a Sprint customer - not an employee. I have moderate aspirations for attaining "cell geek" status...but, I'm still a ways off!

The 3rd post on this page (#4๐Ÿ˜Ž mentions the sighting of a Sprint Q. I realize this is still "heresay" but, I can dream can't I?

Why are you so excited about the Q? Its nothing to get excited over unless Sprint is gonna pracitcally give them away. Smaller non touch screen, crappy keyboard, horrible battery life (non data even ๐Ÿ˜ฒ ) lacking in Productivity dept. (can only view Office files, cant edit or create. plus no notes app and hard to find one for download.)

Don't get me wrong. I don't want one (not even a little). But a lot of people have been asking if and when Sprint will carry it and I happen to have that info so I posted it. I am in no way recommending it. ๐Ÿ˜‰

I'm getting either a Treo 700p or 700wx. Probably 700p because of the simplicity

I was considering the Q but my friend got the sam I830, this one has wi fi and even is a remote comtrol for the TV. This is the one I will buy if they every get some more back in stock.

It Motorola, the same company that produced the equally crappy razr and every iden phone made. I would never buy a moto again.

My (not-so-humble) $0.02
Reasons to get excited:
1) A "Smartphone" is all I need. PPC is too robust for my needs (I owned one for a couple weeks). I don't require my device to edit Word & Excel files, I don't need a touchscreen, etc.
2) Slim QWERTY form factor - none exist with Sprint at this time.
3) Because I'm banking on the hopes that Sprint will be able to release this device more "bug free" than its VZW cousin. Much like the Treo 700p & 700wx. Generally speaking - I have greater faith in Sprint devices than I do VZW devices.
So, even if my #3 reason doesn't come to fruition...Sprint FINALLY breaking into the slim QWERTY realm can only be a good thing. This will satisfy many people's desire for a device more robust than a cell ph...

for those who don't require all the bells and whistles of a PPC
Easy solution to this is not to get a M$ PPC based phone. The palm OS is simple, yet efficient for most users. Thin isn't always better, just look at the crappy razr.

I agree. If I had my choice...I would prefer to support a non MS OS, like Palm, Blackberry, Symbian or Linux. The only alternatives that Sprint offers though, are either too big or don't offer all that I want. If the Treos weren't so bulky, I might have switched some time ago. But, at this point...I just can't make the change. Perhaps the 750 will bring about some positive changes in size without sacrificing any qualities that the Palm community have come to expect and rely on. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
