My story is identical. I drove around most of the night cruising the different sprint stores in the area (we have a good amount around these parts). I settled on the mall since that is the only store that told me definitively that they would open their doors at 8. Walked into the mall around 6:30 and it was a ghost town until I got to the Sprint store where 9 people were already there waiting. By the time sprint opened their doors to us, there were about 40 people behind me in the desolate mall. It was just Pre buyers and "Mall Walkers". Everyone in the line was very cordial and nice...well, at least the early risers. The people who showed up to the line that was now noticeably long were a little jumpy at the thought they might not be able to get the phone which I understand. I spent 10 minutes with the Pre and knew it was a winner. As far as I'm concerned Sprint and Palm really hit it outta the park with this little guy. Palm has really outdone themselves with this creation and they picked the right horse in Sprint, not just because I'm with Sprint, but those everything plans really are affordable and worth every penny as far as I'm concerned. And in my area Sprint is king when it comes to service reliability.
