Sprint PPC-6601 Available NOW

I just ordered my very own PPC-6601 from sprint business sales.

I called in to check when it was coming out and the rep said it wasnt out yet. However, 2 minutes later, he called me back and said that it was available and I could order it. They had to do a paper order because it wasnt in the system yet. He said I should recieve it early next week.

I plan to try it out for 2 weeks, then return it and try the Treo 650 for 2 weeks and then decide.

If the rep doesnt know about it... tell them that you know someone that ordered it with a paper order.

To everyone jumping on the band wagon you may want to check your local stores first. Some have them in stock already.

Thumbs up Got mine!

Got mine.. 'nice unit, though I'm worried about the strength of this sliding back-end (e.g. the keyboard). That, and the battery life looks like its going to be an issue. (Definately a charge once a night kinda thing).

But.. ya.. up and running within minutes after we switched my # over.

Will let you know more if I have issues.
