Come on, seriously? :( Way to prove all of the Sprint-haters right, guys.

Anyone having luck with their Sprint.com preorders? Post in this thread. I'm wondering if I shouldn't take a 4 hour nap and come back.... :rolleyes:

The two links I'm trying to load in tabs, aside from refreshing My Sprint to make sure there aren't any messages...

http://shop.sprint.com/mysprint/sho...apple&isDeeplinked=true&INTNAV=ATG:HE:iPhones (iPhones page)

http://shop.sprint.com/mysprint/shop/phone_wall.jsp?flow=UPG&INTNAV=ATG:HE:Upg (Upgrades page)
 
Having the same problem here. It seems like their whole website is down now. Come on, Sprint!
 
It's like the Sprint server closet had a meltdown, like not communicating to shop.sprint.com *at all* now. It's not even giving a connection reset error anymore!
 
i gave up and just successfully got my pre-order at apple.com

Wish I could do that, but I have a "friends and family" discount since a friend works at sprint.. saves $20 a month, but it means Apple sees my line as a business account line and won't let me upgrade through their obviously MUCH more stable and prepared site. UGH
 
Can you order through Apple if you have sprint? I thought you needed to order through sprint directly?

Most people can order through Apple. just click the sprint logo instead of verizon or at&t.

But some of us have special account situations (friends and family account, or apparently if you have to pay a deposit) that apparently prevent that... so I guess we're waiting for Sprint to come back up.
 
glad I had the option of going to apple! can't wait for my 32gb black & slate

This is nightmare scenario, folks.

I'm going to try again in 4 hours.

Horrible, Sprint. :(
