Telus already has more or less the same model as sprint, so this really doesn't hold much ground. I'm still not convinced the verizon model will truly be crippled like this as they seem to release the same versions only at most changing (uglifying) the casings, but you probably can't do a whole lot worse than the red sprint one....
