Hope you leave negative feedback.
sure but with amazon returns are easy.
Love how the sprint rep who activated told me its brand new never used. When logging in and displaying the device it says REFURBISHED.

I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

Need advice, can someone give a honest opinion. Should I keep the refurbished, not used much phone for $60 or spend another $40 for a brand new?
is refurbished that bad?

OT here ...does anyone know if your Google voice number is charged as a mobile number?
is it intergrated with your sprint line, or is it just forwarded?

Is this possible: Order a smartphone online with my free upgrade, when it arrives I activate it on Boost and cancel my sprint plan. (is this easily done?)

How do you plan on getting out of contract?

 I was wondering if my plan would work but I didn't realize that when ordering, the current contract gets renewed. Thanks

You have a choice to renew contract, or pay full price which doesn't renew contract.

HI folks,

My first post here- so to start off I will say, great forum! Lots of good input on this thread and I look forward to exploring others as well.

My favorite basic phone for Sprint has been the LG Lotus LX600 (I never got the Elite..)
Good video playback speed, runs Opera Mini, qwerty, Really a great use of the screen if you get rid of the default Sprint navigation page.

The reason I found this site is that my last Lotus just snapped in half. :'(
Time for a replacement,

So Dan... I might just be in touch about one of those Centros...

Sold a dozen of 'em.  Not too many left anymore!

With thousands of apps it's one of the best dumbphones around.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

I have an old one that still works...how do you get apps on it? What apps are good?
It's not about the quantity of your posts.  It's about the quality.

Is there an app store or do you have to search on the browser?
