Lower price on Sprint ESPN Mobile Phone

The ESPN phone that I ranted about not too long ago has gone down in price. If you remember previously Best Buy advertised this phone at $199 but didn’t have any in stock. They were waiting until Super Bowl Sunday to release the phone as a big Super Bowl promotion. The only thing was the special price was only to last until the end of January. The Super Bowl wasn’t until February.

You guessed it. The phone price increased to $350 – $499 depending on where you went and made me wait until that Sunday to tell me. They even had that price on it in February but ended up changing it on Sunday. Naturally.

Well now, 2 months later, the phone price of the ESPN Mobile Phone plummeted. The price is now reported to be $99. I’ll believe it when I see it but it supposedly is because the old Sanyo Phone that the ESPN phone is on is old and outdated and the new phone platform that is coming out is soooo much better.

I like Sanyo phones but I don’t think the Sprint service that goes a long with anything new will be that much better. Also I imagine the phone price is only going to be for new lines of service even if you re-up your current plan, which makes the phone pointless for anyone thinking about switching to Sprint (why I’m not sure), rather than those of us who have been through all of Sprint’s craziness and need a new phone.

Good luck getting a new Sprint Phone anyway.
