thoughts.. the update will come out on the 28th. sprint will make good on its gps promise but it won't be standalone, the phone will be updated with the api layer for agps but it will be modified so current location hacks won't work. people will try and work around it until the next model comes out to no avail. wm 6.1 further cripples the phone in regard to ram usage. sprint cuts its losses with the mogul and releases a mogul2 in the fall that will be the exact same thing just with more ram. barely. an amount that's only 2-3 years outdated instead of 4.

does not offer free upgrades for mogul users and no tradeup options.
I think what he was referring to is using Q-Chat to 'chirp'. Q-Chat is suppose to be able to connect with both i-den and the old ReadyLink system (I beleive0. The biggest thing though is that it is suppose to replace the i-den walkie talkie. So we must ask ourselves why hasn't this new, great technology been released, especially since it will allow Sprint and Nextel phones to 'chirp' one another? Because from what I understand it need Ev-DO Rev A to operate (which would/could allow the Mogul to 'chirp'). It also needs other devices, you know, like the ones being held up by the qualcomm/Broadcom lawsuit.
