to all you saying that we dont have a problem .. a big F*** YOU .. this clearly shows the capability that we have with out devices but they "forgot" to include them ... F*** YOU HTC

oh and if read on page 2 on the bottom .. look what it says wlan 802.11 a/b/g so we do have wifi .. but sprint disabled it with a hack or some s*** .. we can get it back working im sure of it.

Yes, its the HTC drivers, not the total implosion of world markets, that is driving down Sprint's stock.

Thank you for that bright spot in an otherwise rainy, cold day.

That's funny!

FYI, just because the chipset supports 802.11 doesn't mean that the only thing left is a device driver. Maybe there are other hardware components necessary to get the 802.11 working?

Actually you're completely right. If you look at the diagram that was provided by the OP you can plainly see the interface for 802.11 is a standard of the board, but the actually 802.11 radio/chip are not a standard.

from what I read somewhere, instead of us having the wifi card, we instead have the "sprint internet" thing, as in, they literally replaced the components. Again, that's just something I read somewhere and no I don't remember.

No that's not the case. The Sprint EVDO internet modem is built into the MSM 7500 chipset. What you're reading is that Sprint decided that since their internet service was so fast not many people would have the need for wifi.
