What's interesting about this phone, is that Nokia's product sheet has FM
radio service capability. Also, syncing phonebooks & calendars via IR.

Give it up Phillipe ... So they aren't listing it in the accessories page
yet. Here are the details directly from Sprint's site.

A day later its STILL not showing on the SprintPCS web site.

http://www1.sprintpcs.com/explore/PhonesAccessories/AllPhones.jsp

Thats the phone sale web page, despite having the word Accessories in it, if
you had bothered to look.
But we know as a blind SprintPCS apologist you take all press releases as
gospel, even if they are false.

Which in this case it was the Nokia 6225 is not available. It is not shown on
the web site, and if one calls TeleSales, they will tell you it is not
available yet, they don't know when it will be available, and they don't what
how much it will be.

1-888-253-1315 is the number I have for Telesales. If you know of a Telesales
number that is selling the Nokia 6225, please post it.

Wow, Phillie, you've become so patterned on creating ID's so that you
can respond to yourself, that now you're "responding" to no one.

"...you take all press releases..."

You?  You who?

Its STILL not on the web poage, not at Telesales, and not in the stores,
so how is it "available". The Press Release has a link to the PCS web
site, but no 6225. IT IS VAPORWARE

As our leading SprintPCS apologist, please xplain the Press Releases
announcing the availability of an unavailable phone.

Still no answer. Why does Sprint announce the availability of an
unavailable phone.
O/Siris - 26 Mar 2004 07:27 GMT
> Still no answer.

Phillie, you've been asked a very simple question, and now, instead
of simply answering it (you know, having a conversation), now you're
lying again.  And just as badly as ever.  You started a new thread
with a post that accused someone.  But you never named that someone.

To whom was your post directed?

I asked you, and you obfuscate. Why did SPRINTPCS announce the Nokia
6225 as available when it isn't?

This is just speculation, but maybe it was supposed to be available and
something happened that caused Nokia to pull it back at the last minute
(perhaps they found a firmware bug or something)

No Philly, YOU obfuscated.  You fail to mention who your accusation is
directed towards.

No one can answer your question until you specify who you're accusing.

That's the problem Isaiah ... Ole Phillipe doesn't answer questions, he just
throws out old arguments, and then misquotes replies ...

Every single SprintPCS blind apologist including you.

SprintPCS issues a press release annoucing the mimmediate availability
of the Nokia 6225.

Only problem, its a lie. The phone is not available.

Quietly the press release disappears from SprintPCS' web site.

Sprint apologists are just as quiet.

OK

No more of a lie than 99% of what you post about operational stuff.

> Quietly the press release disappears from SprintPCS' web site.

So there is no press release- problem solved.

> Sprint apologists are just as quiet.

No we're not- you choose to ignore the relevent posts and simply whine about
this.  Its not available- life will go on, Phil.

Then in that case, in your usual paranoia, we have no reason to answer.
 Sorry philly, but no one here is part of any conspiracy to cover up
the existence of the 6225.  Fact is, I'd love to get one of them myself.
 So as usual, you are barking up the wrong tree.

Maybe you should follow your own advice, and call Executive Services? :)

As usual, Phillie, you're exactly backwards from the truth.  In your
post that started this thread, you referred to someone as "you".  All
I'm asking is who you meant when you referred to them.

YOU havent explained why your company lied about the Nokia 6225.

YOU don't explain your lies- practice what you preach.

Since there was no lie, there's explanation to be had.  Something
happened at the last moment resulting in the phone being pulled.  
That isn't a lie, that's a corrective action.

You still haven't answered my question: To whom were you referring
when you (Phillie) spoke to "you"?

What an embarressment to SprintPCS you are.

SprintPCS announces the availability of the Nokia 6225. A week later its
still not available, and not a word from Sprint, only some lame guess by
you, and some insults for me for pointing out this strangeness.

And you have pointed out no information to explain it.  Either tell us why
this happened (with facts) or shut up.

You are very specific in your words, Phillie.  You are now
conspicuously avoiding using the word you used just 24 hours ago:
lie.

Strangeness.

If you'd used that word from the start, instead of falsely accusing
the company of lying, there wouldn't have been a need to point out
just how stupid your "waiting" was.

Poor SprintPCS, even its blind apologists can't cover for it lying about
the Nokia 6225 being released and immediately available.

What is there to cover for?  The 6225 isn't available.  So?  What
dastardly crime has been committed here?

Us "apologists" as you like to call us didn't write the press release,
Phillipe.  And it's only your paranoia that makes you associate us with
Sprint.

     I think that frequently, things that are promoted/announced at
trade shows are subject to change by the time they eventually reach the
actual sales channels.
     Like at the Vision kickoff convention for the Milwaukee area
RadioShacks, Best Buys, Circuit Citys, etc. there was a booth that
showed off a possible future 7135.
