[NEWS] Best Buy offer Sprint Hero Now In Some Locations

[D/\SH]

Best Buy announced yesterday that it would be Sprints exclusive retail partner (for 60 days, we hear) for the highly anticipated HTC Hero, which will be available at each of Best Buys 1,044 locations across the country beginning October 11th. As is always the case with Best Buy Mobile, there is no need to bother with that pesky mail-in rebate as BBYM is spotting customers the $100 and offering the Hero for a straight $179.99 on a 2-year contract. Weve also learned that while pre-orders arent officially available yet, some locations are already offering to cement your position at the front of the Hero line. For those of you with nearby Best Buys that arent willing to bend the rules, pre-orders should officially be available in just over a week. If youre lucky however, a lax location, a friendly sales rep and a $50 deposit are all you need to make it happen — as you can clearly see from the image above.
