Sample Sprint Service/Phone

DKrics · 08-28-2006, 10:52 PM

Sprint contacted me (randomly I assume) about being in a sample to test a new phone and new services.
It is to test on demand TV and possibly movies. The service is called VUE.
I get the new phone in a week.
Here's a link to the page they sent me:

Anybody else get this?

Wonder if it resets his upgrade eligabilty hehhehehehe

Seriously though that phone is awesome, wish I was chosen to test it... Do they give you another # with free service? Looks interesting though.

Id be very careful I dont think tat site is even run by Sprint and not legit. Im trying to trace the domain info right now. But Id bet its not Sprint, some kinda of scam. The page on the link looks very unprofessinally done and definantly Sprint's style for webpages. Looks very hand made with a copied picture off a Korean website for the Samsung phone. Definantly a scam I would not give any information out on that site. Looking through the site directory its a company people commission to do surveys, I wouldnt be so willing to give any personal information out to send me a "phone" to any company but Sprint themselves.

I played with this phone, or one very similar to it, at CES back in January in Las Vegas. It was defintely a stand out in the Samsung line up. I didn't have much time to go through all the things on it, as I had to wait in line to get my hands on it. But, I can say that the phone felt kinda flimsy. When opening it, the plastic that the screen was attached to almost felt as though if you applied any pressure it would break off the body. It looked and felt a little bigger then an A920. I recall that the text on the screen may have been in Korean as well. I wish I could remember more but it's waaaaaaaaaay past my bedtime.

I agree. That site looks like a total scam. I would call Sprint to find out if it is legitimate. I would proceed with extreme caution.

losplatanos · 08-29-2006, 10:14 AM

damn i wish i would have been choosen, lol but yeah, something big like that, would appear on other places such as phonescoop and newspapers, tech sections

r0fl No, venti is twenty. Large is large. In fact, tall is large and grande is Spanish for large. Venti is the only one that doesn't mean large. It's also the only one that's Italian.
