Ok, newbie mistake. I purchased a "new" Sprint PCS Smart Device PPC-6700 the other day with out checking on the ESN. When I go to the Sprint store to activate it, they say that they cannot activate. When I asked if the phone was stolen, she said that it was "suspicious" and would not go into any other detail.

Anyone have suggestions on where I go from here? Is there any kind of work around or MOD that I can do with the ESN?

Have a purchased a $300 PDA/camera and not a phone?
