Sprint called me today

Sprint gave me a call to make sure I was happy. I told him I was expecting his call, he seemed surprised. I said my contract is up and they new iPhone looks pretty yummy, gotta be afraid of losing me as a customer. All he offered me was $150 off a new phone (you get that every 2 years no matter what, AFAIK).

And he said I could use that for a new Treo 800 (I have the 700p) when it comes out; he insisted it's a Palm OS device (not Windows Mobile) and I rephrased the question several times. Now that I've had time to Google it, I think he's wrong and it's a Windoze Mobile device.

Tried to buy a wireless modem card from him, best he could offer me was $60 a month. I currently have internet on my phone for $15 and $25 more (total $40) lets me tether (connect) my laptop to it and use the internet. So if I drop the $25 and pay the $60, I've still got the $15 on the phone, now $45 more a month. You'd think he could offer me a better incentive than that. I do already have unlimited tethering, give me a little more incentive to sign up Sprint...

Now that I've got the new iPhone specs and at only $199 to switch to AT&T I've got all sorts of other ideas in my head...
