Frustrating
I blame the technologically backward phones we are offered in the US on Sprint and Verizon. If they said to HTC, we are only buying phones with USB 2.0 and VGA screens from this point forward, you can be sure HTC would be selling that unit to them. Sprint also takes so incredibly long to "test" a phone that they are obsolete even if they are cutting edge when they are delivered to Sprint. Sprint's "testing" includes turning the phone on and making a call. They don't test to see if PDA phones run apps well, that e-mail works, that they have enough memory, etc. Not sure how long it takes to see if you can make a call and receive a call.
I really really wish Sprint had an "open" network where you could put any phone you want as long as it had CDMA set for Sprint. You can be sure that reputable manufacturers like HTC, ETEN, Samsung etc would make sure it was compatable quickly so they could sell you more phones.
