Browsing the internet on my TP2 right now is like trying to push a cow through a keyhole, so another 3G phone is definetely not what I want....
I wouldn't mind getting an unlocked CDMA phone and paying a little extra....
Browsing the internet on HTC Arrive would not get much better then on TP2, display is not really bigger, so why sign a new contract ? I just don't see the point... New cooler OS, WoooHoo, big deal,.... Android phones look way cooler hardware-wise, I just don't care for Android OS, otherwise I would be sold by now...

Any new CDMA/4G/WIN7 phones with slide out keyboards on the horizon besides the HTC Arrive?
Is anybody else here considering getting an unlocked WM7 phone to use with Sprint....

Its WP7..not WM7 >.> lol..anyways..

locked or unlocked does not matter.you can only use Arrive on the Sprint Network...and you will end up paying $10 fee either way...

As for 4g..I dont think WP7 supports 4G yet..WP7 only allows pre-approved hardware..latest update brought CDMA...

But I will tell you this, processor and hardware acceleration makes a BIG difference for web browsing...I use my Epic on 3g and 4g..in tethering I see huge improvement on 4g and downloading files..but on surfing the web...if 3g signal is good its just as fast....Most of the lag on TP2 in web browsing is rendering the JavaScript and other elements..
