This phone is going to be insane it will be a phone geeks dream with that much ram/rom the customization will be endless even people who hate sprint will be tempted to give it a try even if you don't have 4g in you area you will still have 3g remember this is 3g/4g device and will still be just as fast if not even faster than then the nexus one on 3g hope it has wifi 802.11n that would a plus if sprint markets this phone correctly this will get them back in the game I can't wait until someone roots this thing

I can give you all little idea, as to why is this phone and sprint will be best? Recent facts are that smartphones range between 3.7" and 5" (dell mini 5) will dominate markets. eg. HD2, SAMSUNG OMNIA i8910 HD, LG, etc. If you stretch your palm, it measures 5". So 4.3" will be perfect to hold as far as smartphone is concerned. It will give good grip. Also it has tremendous capacity to upgrade power, memory, processor, camera, camcorder, etc but people will like it for its size. This phone because of its size and power and capacity will saturate smartphone market and provide excellent option. About service providers, ATT and T-MOBILE work on fixed frequencies numbers while Verizon and SPRINT work within band of frequencies. Many people already know that T-MOBILE owners are non-US and they are planning to sell this network. Probably ATT will purchase it in next 3-4 years. Also it is a know fact that SPRINT and VERIZON rent towers and network from one-another. I am hoping that eventually they will merge. I think in distant future all service providers will merge globally. As far as issue I think that is buggin me is that between war of OS, windows vs android vs imac vs MAEMO SYMBIAN OS, etc who will win, I have no idea right now and that will create various options as to which phone a person will buy, T-MOBILE HD2 - WINDOWS OR SUPERSONIC-SPRINT-ANDROID or other variations, but I am getting SPRINT SUPERSONIC!!!!!!!

Where did you get this information about "Many people already know that T-MOBILE owners are non-US and they are planning to sell this network" I have heard nothing about them planning on selling this?

I like how some of you idiots TRY your best to degrade Sprint, this phone, and the network. You're just sad because you are probably stuck with a lame iPhone on AT&T's horrid, overly cramped, iPhone loving network. Sprint FTW!

I can't wait....I want one now. I have been putting off getting a phone ever since I heard about the HD2. Now I get the best of both worlds until a Windows 7 series HD3 arrives! Thats when we will see real competition I think.

Hi everyone. Does Supersonic support GSM band? (i know Sprint is CDMA) what if i buy the unlock version of Sonic? will it work? cuz i really like this phone:)

For right now the HD2 and the Supersonic are the best phones bar none in my opinion. I get mobile to mobile calling and unlimited texting for 69.95.......This can't be beat anywhere. I get service where I need it most, and when my business buddies, and I was in Massachusettes their Verizons phones didnt work, and my Sprint phone did. Service is subject to where you are located, and also subject to the phone that is being used! The best all around valued company even with it's faults is Sprint.....piss on that! Yes you get what you pay for but sometimes it's better to pocket that extra nickle, and diming that adds up to hundreds of dollars in fees.
