Sprint deal this time. Ritz Camera is offering the Samsung A500 for just $99.99 with no strings/rebates/activations attached here.

The T608 has been reloaded into the CSR system. Customer Service Reps can see detailed programming instructions on how to activate the Sony Ericsson T608. This is only done when a phone is generally less than a week from launch.

Update: The phone has been removed from the U.S. Coming Soon page completely. It is still in the Global Coming Soon page, but the phone has not been added to the Products page yet.
The SonyEricsson T608 & T606 U.S. Coming Soon pages have been pulled. The link is still there along with the [...]

Sprint has sent a memo to Business-channel Resellers alerting them that the Treo 600 has been delayed to late November or early December. Thanks to DreamPages for the info.

The Sprint PCS RealOne player has been updated to version 1.15. Re-download if you downloaded RealOne before, as this new version provides marked speed increases and interface enhancements.
Fixed my P300 RealOne problems, except that volume control still does not work on the P300 in RealOne.

I have officially had it with Sprint’s lack of information in regards to the T608. So I’m going to do something about it. On Tuesday, September 30, I want you to help me out in sending Sprint a message that we want to know when the T608 will be released.
I want you to [...]
