Wow... Grammar people grammar! I am glad that sprint is putting out an android phone. VZW and AT&T need to follow suit. I am a huge WM fan so I don't think I will go the Android route... but I hate RIM and Apple, so WM or Android would be my first two preferences, then Palm WebOS a distant 3rd, then any feature phone, then RIM and Apple.

Lol wow this website has a lot of sprint haters! Let's see if u are gettin sprint for the first time or upgrading a phone, what to choose... hmmm... let's see, Palm Pre, HTC Hero, Instinct HD, Touch Pro 2, HTC Snap, Samsung Moment, Blackberry Tour, Samsung Intrepid, that's pda's... let's face it people no matter how much u guys hate u have to admit that sprint has the best lineup...

12. VZWfangirl posted on 11 Oct 2009, 19:56

As of now, yes they do. Come next month we will. Let's see what to choose from...Motorola Tao, Blackberry Storm 2, HTC Hero, Touch Pro 2, Imagio, Blackberry Tour, Omnia 2, Ozone, And come January the Palm Pre and probably Pixi. People will hate to admit it but Verizon will have the best line up.

15. jtm1208 posted on 11 Oct 2009, 21:48

NO offense but i found it kinda funny that you included the ozone with the rest of those phones lol

Verizon = not to hate TOO much but when has Motorola had a good smartphone? I don't think that the Andriod can work an original Razr-esque miracle for Moto -1 And there are a ton of people still really sour about the original Storm and its initial 50% return rate -1. The Hero yes, that is a sweet phone but I'll wait to see if Big Red kills it's specs to save some cash as they have historically done with almost every smartphone they've gotten +-1. The same with the Imagio we'll see +-1. The tour is a solid phone so +1 there. Omnia 2 also sweet +1. The Ozone? Great entry-level device but hardly a crowd pleaser I wouldn't count it as a runner in a Great lineup -1. Total score 0 back to where we started nothing special, neither good nor bad. Sprint = There is a bit more to look at there. They've got the Tour +1. And the Hero which has launched and is a sweet phone +1. The Pre, which will hopefully get video sometime before the next version is released, also sweet +1. The Snap, their version of the Ozone -1 again, not a frontrunner. The Samsung InstinctHD yeah it's an instinct yeah it's expensive but it shoots HD video! +1. The Samsung Intrepid it looks like a blackberry but with a touchscreen and World roaming but has WinMo 6.5 you either like it or you don't +-1. Touch Pro 2 Sprint doesn't have it at the stores yet but when? Great phone but come on I'd like to see it please +-1. And with the Samsung Moment (Android touchscreen with Qwerty) due out next month and the Pixi? Total Score +3. They've still got a ways to go but things are looking up for the number 3 carrier, but then again I hate phones. So what do I care?

The only thing with VZ is that you have some horrible plans esp data.

18. tokuzumi posted on 12 Oct 2009, 09:51

But there's a map for that.

19. DonLouie posted on 14 Oct 2009, 07:50

VZWfangirl also should add for any of the device mentioned thier subs will be paying at least $30 more for individual plan and probably twice that amount on fam plans while getting less than half the minutes but at least you'll be able to mix and match the additional lines

I purchased Palm Pre in June. I love everything but the keyboard too small for my fingers, but I dealt with it. Then Htc Hero comes along GREAT phone, but the following are downfalls: screen resolution...horrible Sprint could not get contacts from Pre to Hero...told me had to enter all manually NOT no yahoo....had to open gmail account Sprint Tech Support was very little help!!!!!! Needless to say HTC Hero was returned..... Anyone have suggestions for an AWESOME UPGRADE!!!!
