I just tell them it's a Mogul - one of Sprint's newer smartphones. They will usually ask who makes it (most ppl I know with 8x25's don't know that HTC makes it) I just tell them HTC and say that they make the majority of smartphones for the major carriers nowadays. I ask them what carrier they have, list the phones, let them peck for a few seconds (I ride the bus/lightrail to work and back) and then go on my way.
Consider yourself lucky you never owned a Hitachi g1000 like I did. 9 times out of 10, if I pull it out in a new crowd of people, someone is going to make a comment about it. When I tell them I use it as a remote control for the TV (in addition to the other things it does), or monitor my apartment via webcam, that's when they usually crap themselves.
