She also said that the Sprint Diamond 2 still doesn't have any info on a drop date... So, pretty much bad news all around for Sprint...
With the HTC HD2 however, I'll probably change carriers to who ever brings it here first.

sprint was also saying they didn't have any data on the hero about a month ago, so I wouldn't necessarily take that as bad news.

I hope they supplant plans of getting the D2 or (imagio) with getting the Leo or (HD2 or ProThree). It's hard to bank on it but Sprint still has not released a non-qwerty WM touch screen device since the Diamond so they may pick it up as the next device.

Now im not big on none hardware keyboard phones but I would jump on this phone if they come out with a cdma version and sprint picks it up.

This would make more sense to me for sprint to get this phone instead of a Diamond 2.

I was thinking a 3.8 inch screen was pushing it but I think a phone like this would basically eliminate the need to carry a laptop or net book all the time given that the battery life also has good improvements.

just because it has a slightly bigger screen it will still work like a windows mobile phone. people don't carry around laptops because the screen is bigger, they carry laptops to have a desktop experience. this phone will still not provide real web browsing experience.

Well speaking in my case, it will. I use my touch pro alot as is instead of pulling out my laptop. So from going from a 2.8 to a 4.3 in screen will change things considerable for me. I also us my phone with applications like slingbox and sites like justintv. I was never a fan for full touch screen phones with no keyboard but the specs on this phone are very impressive.
