The best phone for Realtors...at the best price too!

I am excited to throw this little bit of info in the pot. At every seminar and conference I go to for Realtors, I hear them saying that the Blackberry is the only kind of phone to have if you are serious about your business. I have wanted one, but my budget has insisted that can't be a priority investment right now.

My broker has "preferred vendor" relationships with so many cell phone service providers, I decided to do the homework to find out who was best and cheapest, etc. The deal I found has nothing to do with any kind of "preferred vendor" deal. This is a deal anyone can get.

Hands down, here in Middle Tennessee, Sprint rose to the position of unlikely winner! I have been with Sprint and hated their customer service and high prices for the last couple of years, but I guess the new CEO and "Simply Everything" plan has worked in their favor. They have made a 180 degree turn in customer service and pricing!

So here is the breakdown for you:

Blackberry 8330 (in dark cherry red!) : $49

Sprint "Simply Everything" plan : $99 per month!

The Blackberry 8330 has a retail price of something like $739, but Sprint has a deal going where it is only $99 right now. The only place I could find it cheaper was Best Buy. They charged me an $18 transfer fee to take all the info off my old phone and put it on the Blackberry, but NO ACTIVATION FEEor any other costs! (Perhaps a new customer to Sprint would have an activation fee. You might ask first.)

Sprint's "Simply Everything" plan is the ONLY plan out there that doesn't require any extra Blackberry service plan fee. It covers it! UNLIMITED TEXT, WEB, PIC MESSAGES, TALK, E-MAIL... everything is included!

I just thought if there are any other Realtors like me out there, who are on an incredibly tight budget, you might just be glad to hear about this deal.

P.s. I am not affiliated with Sprint. I have not reason to promote them. I just thought this was a great deal and wanted to pass the information along. If you find the Blackberry 8330 cheaper somewhere, I would love to hear about it!
