Attn: Big Poppa - 8900 back on shelves when?

Wrong forum, I apologize.

Big Poppa, any idea when they'll be putting the 8900 back on the shelves. My local stores (Boston, MA) said not till mid-January, and the guy at the 800 number said even though the phone appears on the website with a Santa Barbara zip code, the transaction "probably wouldn't go through". He also said they had instructions not to sell any more of these phones under any circumstances until they hear otherwise.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

We have been told to flash our inventory and sell the CDM-8900 phones. They are already on our shelves here in Texas.

I found out that it IS up to the store manager's, and at their discretion, on what phones they put on their shelves, as long as they are approved handsets. The managers, if an approved phone has issues, has the right to stop selling and pull the phone until the required updates or changes are made.

Check your local store and make sure they have a technician that can flash the new software into the phone, then tell the manager you want that phone. I doubt seriously they'll turn down a sale.

Hope this helps
