I guess it's okay to post back and forth between Sprint and T-Mobile in threads not called that, but not okay when you try and call your thread just that! So happy for the ignore function. That way it's easy to just ignore people with power trips bitter from high school.

But I'm sure Sprint will come along within a month or so soon enough! They did have a customized HTC manila slider with theirs. T-Mobile had the basic tabs for the slider so it didn't take long to release the 6.5 update. I guess Sprint is the most behind because it's a CDMA carrier without Verizon-money.

I love having Sprint and Verizon. I can say when one lets me down the other stands strong.

Sprints cheap! I am not going anywhere. Love my SERO and my Diamond. Can't wait to see what Sprint has in store for our near future! Thanks for the post JQuill. I would press the thanks button but I'm maxed out for the day.

Google and Apple are responsible for starting the process of converting the entire cellular market over to smart phones as opposed to non-smart phone devices.

Sprint a few years ago was AHEAD of the game when it came to smart devices, windows mobile was the only game in town. As soon as the regular market started getting smart phones like iPhone / Adroid, windows mobile failed to adapt quickly, they got blitzed from both angles. It's an embarasingly slow process for WM to get where it needs to be to be considered an "everyday smartphone" which is is NOT.

ANY windows mobile phone is the best type of smart phone...I don't care if you're using Vouge, Touch Diamond, a TP2 or a Touch HD, they all out perform most android phones and the iPhone as far as functionality is concerned...but the average cellular device user who has NEVER used a smartphone has a huge learning curve (when I say that I really mean it would take them more time than they want to spend learning how to use a phone), where as with iPhone and Android there is no learning curve...it really is that intuitive.

Once people adapt to the new easier to use smartphones then WM can come back in a big way (with WM7) by offering the "next level" of service through mobile devices that WM has had for years, but people didn't know how to use. Now they'll be able to pick it up and use it as easily as their Droid because they know what a smart phone can do and how to make it work for them. The market needed an education on how to take advantage of awesome mobile devices, and Android is giving it to them. Big brother WM will come back soon don't worry, it's just a shame that WM is basically on pause or keeps having set backs.

Almost everything in this post is untrue.

everyone has their own opinions. I think sprint is going to have a complete turn around here in the near future and surprise a lot of people!

But I will not let it get me down

There's a reason we have 3 carriers in my home!

seeing my fiance owns this site, he's the biggest phone addict I've ever seen and at one time we had every carrier there was, only for tweaking of course. I can't say what carriers because some things are private but yes, we have 3 as of now. Of course the 2 are sprint and verizon. Like I said, the only reason we have any of them are for tweaking purposes only, so I don't mind it at all. hehe Your wife would understand eventually spiritcrusher
