But see thats the problem, this phone is not coming out untill late march at the earliest for sprint, I just got intouch with an old friend in KC that works for sprint, its not sprint that wanted to wait its microsoft. MS is releasing an update to Wp7 end of first quarter beginning of second quarter 2011 thats what verizon and sprint and alot of folks are waiting for. (Ask developers if a big update is coming in the next 6 months after the U.S launch they will tell you yes i promise)
But back to my point yes 1 ghz 1st gen snapdragon will work without a hitch but why should i pay max dollar for an outdated chip and a chip thats really behind. And a phone without a big screen or a front facing camera or a better battery. This phone was made for the common people that want to try wp7 and not really care about tech, it is the iphone for WM but even the iphone 4 is stronger. (AND I HATE APPLE) MS dropped the ball and sprint and htc are tryting to make the best of it but its not looking good, especially Now because I really dont like android but from what all the tech heads including the person in KC just told me I might be waiting for the evo2 or the rumored EVO 2 PRO yes 4.1 inches and a tilting keyboard.
But i willing to give microsoft a shot if they make a real 2011 device not a rebadged 2009 HD2
