I like their use of the word 'frequently'. They 'frequently' update their plans, promotions, and products. I don't know what world they live in..but Alltel is far from the definition of frequent in relation to these topics.

You won't get any answers about new phones from customer service or emailing anyone....

99.9% of the people you will come in contact with only find out about new equipment usually a week or two before it comes out...

there is a small fraction of people that get information earlier...

waste your time emailing or calling, if that tickles your fancy, or keep a lookout here....i guarantee you, you'll find out about a new phone release here (or hell, even a Google Search) FAR FAR sooner than you would by calling in or emailing....(and that is a PROVEN fact....you're more than welcome to check past threads to verify if you wish)
