HTC Snap for Sprint

  • Sprint has plans to launch a CDMA/WiMAX-capable handset sometime in 2009 or 2010. Educated guesses about the nature of the phone tend to refer to Wi-Fi connectivity and Android as a possible operating system, but nothing is really certain yet.

  • Sprint’s HTC Snap gets shot while being unboxed. As you probably know, the expected launch date for the Snap is June 6, so you may find these pics useful if you intend on getting the Windows Mobile beast.

On top of that, it will feature a 3.1-inch touchscreen, 528MHz processor, 288MB RAM, 3MP camera and will be running WM 6.1 Professional.

Samsung T239



  • T-Mobile is now offering two new pre-paid phones: the Nokia 1661 and the Samsung T239. The 1661 is a feature candybar phone sold at a price of $19.99. This thing is that you can actually earn $5.01 by getting a $25 prepaid card along with it. If you are not really into that, you can still get the T239 slider for $60, again with a $25 prepaid card and it even has a VGA camera!
