I would love to be wrong and for SprintPCS to have changed its policy
about the 14 day testing period. However an anonymous poster at Howard
is not what I would call an Authoritative source.

Heck you can't even believe SprintPCS authoritative sources.

Just recently eCare emailed me these lies:

" To acquire Ready Link for your two Phones, must have a 2 year
Advantage Agreement and business shared minutes."

As they likely cut and paste from Scripts, who provides the CSRs with
such lies?

Well, he's not anonymous ... as he's one of the moderators for Howard
Forums. In saying that, the current policy, per the agreement one has to
agree to says -

Satisfaction Guarantee: Requires return of your complete, undamaged PCS
Phone from Sprint with the original retailer's proof of purchase within 14
days of purchase. We will send a refund either by check or a charge-card
credit. You will remain responsible for all charges incurred prior to the
return of the phone (e.g. activation fees, service charges, etc.)."

SPCS could be in the process of changing that, as they are with the WLNP
monthly charges, that were announced at the beginning of that thread from
$1.10 down to $0.40, starting sometime in July.
