>> Visited my local Sprint PCS store in TN today. Had a beautiful graphite gray thin phone for $99

I bought that very phone, John. It's sweet :-). You get to select your own headline, and I chose "Franq's QCOM". I've shown it off around Silicon Valley for the last week, and get a lot of oh's and ah's from the engineers I call on.

Surprisingly, the Sprint store didn't have any accessories for the QCP-1960 (no cigarette lighter adaptors, batteries, etc.). The rep told me Sprint had decided not to carry Qualcomm's accessories; they are going to market 3rd party stuff.

There's a lot of margin in accessories. Maybe Dr. J. should have a chat with Bill Gates and find out how to muscle his value chain.
