I asked my rep if extending the 2 year contract would affect my upgrade eligibility and she said "no". If you're near or out of contract, you should be eligible for a full discounted upgrade (best price on the 8900). However, if you're out of contract and want to leverage your contract by getting an even better discount and you're comfortable with haggling over the phone, I suggest you let your plan as is and wait until the 8900 comes out.

She was willing to added to one of my 3 lines and only with a new 2-year contract. I told her I wasn't interested in a new contract, and she didn't want to budge. Question? Does it really matter if I top-off my existing contact to another 2 years if I will likely have to do so anyway to get the new Curve 8900 when it comes out?

I know there are some people who got the add-on without contract, but I got a very friendly and helpful representative and didn't want to bother bickering about getting the add-on with no extension. I've been a TMO customer for the past 8 years and I don't really mind the new 2-year contract because I don't plan on leaving TMO... steps are easy... 1) call 611 2) say "cancel" as this will transfer you to the retention dept. 3) Tell the rep that you heard about a promotion on adding myfaves for free for long-time, good-standing customers. 4) agree to the 2-years 5) DONE!

Didn't ask to cancel, just told them where I saw the info (when they asked how I heard about the free MyFaves offer). The first rep did have to put me on hold because he didn't know about the offer. I was already in a two year contract, that started about Aug/Sept of 08, they just topped it off to an even two years, rather than adding a year or another two years. I was even surprised later to find out they back dated MyFaves to the start of my billing period and the numbers I had added to the myfave, those calls got deducted from the call tally, from 300 some odd mins used, down to 32 mins used. Very Nice! Worked fine for me. Didn’t ask to cancel, just told them where I saw the info (when they asked how I heard about the free MyFaves offer).
