Will Sprint Change the "Supersonic" to...

Remember this HTC leak of future device names?

http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/03/h...ithin-2-1-rom/

After seeing the HTC Dragon become the Passion/Nexus One, and the HTC Bravo become the Verizon Incredible, it only stands to reason that the HTC Supersonic will be name-changed by Sprint and become the...

1.) Halo
2.) Liberty
3.) Paradise

AFAIK, these are the only names which have not been linked to any known or upcoming device. Since Dragon, Passion, Bravo and Incredible were all mentioned, it makes sense that HTC's names and the carriers' names are all listed.

So, knowing that Sprint will not keep the name Supersonic, which other name do you think it will be?

Why not just combine the 3 names and call it the Halibadise???

They outta just name it the HTC Crack because I have a feeling that it is going to sell like it.

Halibadise -- that's awesome.

My money's on the Sprint Halo.

Read the second paragraph of this article I found:
http://www.fiercewireless.com/story/...ces/2009-09-17

Sprint's president of strategic planning and CDMA says, "We're finding that 4G has a huge halo effect on our existing 3G business in terms of attracting new and existing customers." So it wouldn't shock me if they named the HTC Supersonic the Sprint Halo. We'll all find out in 10 days.
