Sprint has The Instinct?

I admit it.  I still have Sprint for cell phone service.  A few years ago, Sprint was the company with all of the cool, new technology.  Wow, how things change.

But Sprint is trying to come back with the iPhone-like Instinct by Samsung.

Should I go the easy route and get one? Reports say it is selling like hotcakes.

I have met three users already and they seem to like it. I played with one of them and think I will get one this fall when my contract will let me get the discount. I have been with Sprint for years and am an avid Samsung fan (last 3 phones have been Samsung) so I was very excited when the Instinct was introduced. I think I'll finally get rid of the Palm Zire and get a more functional phone (I currently have the Samsung A900 & *love* it).

Also, here is my friend's thoughts on his new phone: http://burnerblog.com/?s=instinct+phone

I have been a Sanyo man for the last few phones. Right now I have a 3 year old 5600.

Don't be a p****! Go out and buy one. Does not matter what the missus says. Just do it!

The Instinct is a smaller version of LG's Voyager that VZW has been selling for months.

Touchscreen with feedback. Speaker. Email. Phone. Sync with Outlook. Sprint is just doing a good job of marketing the phone in combination of pricing and iPhone 3G timing.

It's a nice phone but more of a sequel to the LG Voyager.

C'mon, McGuffer. Get Disney to ante up the $199 for an iPhone. ;)
