I'm personally not counting on HTC to give any news about CDMA, it's all in Samsung or LG (maybe even dell but, nothing showing CDMA so far), as the talked about GSM models to CDMA look better than HTCs offerings.

Also, if you look over the list of companies attending, Verizon and Sprint is there, so maybe some news from them.

Next week is the final show for me, by the end of the 17th(the end of MWC) if we do not have a solid date, I'm done waiting and moving to another type of phone (not the iPhone so it must be Android) and re-look at it in a few months when there are options.

Don't even raise my hopes of other CDMA Windows Phone devices possibility being shown at WMC. I am even willing to switch carriers to verizon if they had a quality device when it/if shows. Just name which GSM devices will get CDMA love :D

True, actually I bought off contract an Evo for $300. Android isn't for me- but I see how some would like it alot. I'm hoping to use my $150 towards a good WP7 slab, not the WP7 pro. Thing is I got till 4.1.11 to make my move(no pressure)

I am 100% sure since I saw this tweet from Sprint

"Wouldn't it be great to have your phone integrated with your home game console, like Xbox? #comebackfeb24"

Only a Windows 7 phone can do that. Way to go Sprint. :headbang:=D>

It's less than a month if you think about it, it's a lot better than them saying June. From a few posts I saw (not sure if it's 100% fact or not), it's not a world phone like the TP2.

After looking at it, it's a little much. $299.99- $100 mail in rebate, final cost $199.99. $300 out of pocket for the phone. Every WP7 on AT&T is $99 with a 2 year contract, no rebates BUT, if you want a Sprint WP7 phone, your going to pay for it.

Anyone know if they kept the FM radio on it or are we doing the Touch Pro/TP2 over again with this phone ?

I sure hope Verizon offers something soon. My choice is to stick with Sprint and get pounded in the ass as they move me to the new $110 everything plan event though I've been with them a decade for an antiquated phone with a nice OS. I can move to a $90 plan with Verizon that is more suited for my needs - either way I'll be paying a lot more than I pay now on my old Sprint F&C plan with my WM phone.

ATT and Tmobile coverage sucks where I travel, work and live so unfortunately while they have some great phone choices, I couldn't use them for my business cell phone.

Yeah I agree that the price sucks, it should be priced around $100-$150. Hell the LG Quantoum that has 16Gigs and a keyboard (although crappy) is only priced at $50.

It better still have the FM radio, as far as I recall this was a minimum spec requirement from Microsoft.

They have slacker radio, last fm, and iheartradio.... Better than regular radio :).

No offense taken.

I agree Verizon doesn't seem to be in a hurry but I hope they hurry anyways. The WP7 pro is nothing I would want. Something like the Focus or HD7 would be much more to my liking.

I use my phone for business so 90% of my daytime calls are to land lines - unlimited mobile doesn't help me in the least. I typically have about 1250 plus daytime minutes used and about 1500 night and weekend on my current plan. I barely use text about 10 per month. I use only about 25MB per month on my Vogue even though I tether it and use it to browse the web when I'm at the airport.

I would have to go to the $100 plan plus $10 surcharge since smartphones use more data than the $100 unlimited data plan covers with Sprint. You have to have an everything plan with any new Sprint Smartphone and they charge you the extra $10 now 4G or not to 4G - there is no question.

They used to just stiff people with 4G phones for the extra $10 but not enough people left Sprint so they decided to bone everyone who wants a new smart phone.
