Sprint getting HTC Rhodium

[chronster]

if they can get the touch pro over here they can get the touch hd over here.

my conspiracy theory is that apple paid them off to not bring it to the us.

oh conspiracy theory lol. honestly getting it imported was easier then i thought and after getting some huge discounts...T-mobile isnt looking that bad either

What would be REALLY nice is a touch pro with full 480x800 screen and the thickness of a diamond.

I'd be all over the diamond if it had an sd slot. That really bums me out and forces me to wait for the Touch pro.

I was looking at the specs on this and I am wondering how well it will really run things like video. It has the same processor (Qualcomm MSM 7201A at 528 Mhz) and same amount of ROM (512 MB) and RAM (288 MB) as the Touch Pro, yet the TP has to stretch to play 640x480 at decent quality and 25 FPS. How is that going to stretch to 800x480 with any sort of decent quality?

HD Pro and BB Niagara? hmmmmmmmmmmmm....

looks like i'll be waiting until Q3 to renew my contract. ive been out of contract since Oct 08 and waiting for an incentive to renew.

im still on the original SERO500 plan or else i probably would have jumped ship already.

HD Pro + WM6.5/7 seems like a very tempting combo

No,

In layman's terms:

WiMax= 4G data

Sprints 4g network. The rest of the world's 4g network will be LTE.

Sprint may use both from what I'm hearing in recent weeks...
