What would be a huge surprise is if Sprint released a HTC Whitestone/Imagio design with a 1 GHz snapdragon processor and the new HTC HD2 Touch Flo version. Given that the HTC Diamond2 has been out for some time and the Imagio/Whitestone is now on Verizon, I am not clear why Sprint is waiting so long to release an equivalent phone. One guess is to not compete with sales of the upcoming HTC Hero. Another guess is that the device may be very different from anything else released so far and be essentially a CDMA Leo equivalent (perhaps with a smaller screen e.g. 3.6 in). If the latter is the case, I for one would be happy I waited. The absence of leaks from Sprint doesn't surprise me because the Imagio was not actually demoed/physically manipulated in the public arena until very close to its release despite early leaks of the form factor. Recall that ai.rs blog had detailed photos of a prototype Touch HD2 (Leo) long before I saw any similar photos of the Verizon HTC Imagio. I for one would welcome more leaks from Sprint's employees.  |
My question is to eveyone the read and post here what are you guys next move what happens now how many will wait till 2010 how many will get another phone that they really did not want. We all here wanted a diamond 2 or whitestone so what's up any one jumping ship and not to jump off topic i know some of you hate that but oh well but can anyone tell me if wm 6.5 was worth the wait was it any different than the beta cause i saw video's on it and iam not impressed. I think microsoft drop the ball i had to go to xda developers just to get wm marketplace to get the myspace and i guess to get the offical rom to wm 6.5 i might have to go there to that's like going to microsoft to get an iphone.
