The pole is not off topic, the release of the titan could case a cold war amoung users who say mine is better then yours thing.

Re: Could the release of the Samsung Instinct cause a Cold war amoung users?

I think if Sprint want to stay a contender in the mobile phone market, they need to listen to their customer. Alot of great phones are being released only as GSM versions. Like the Nokia "N" series , Samsung i900, etc... They really need to get on the ball. I don't think they should go GSM, but Hybrid CDMA/GSM is the way to go. They need to really start pressuring companies like Nokia, LG, Samsung, Eten -Acer, etc... to make more phones compatable with Sprint's network.

since every single phone that seems to be worth something is gsm then why doesnt sprint just get boughtout by t-mobile or att and then go gsm and have the latest headsets. I would like to see O2 or Orange or some EU wireless purchase them.

Re: Could the release of the Samsung Instinct cause a Cold war amoung users?

Sorry but this thread seems silly.
The Mogul/Vogue devices are older... Of course Sprint is spending more money on new products. Why spend money on products that probably only have about 3-4 months left.

Cold war among users?? You can't be serious. If people like the Instinct and get it. Good for them. As a Titan user, I am perfectly happy for them.

think of it as the titan/mogul/Windows Mobile Devices as being old money and know how

and

think of the Samsung Instinct being new money (remember the 1920's and old $ vs new $)

or

the Window Mobile Devices as being old farts

and

the Samsung Instinct being the know it all teenagers
sure you can co exist but at times....

No matter how you put it, or think about it, it's just another phone.
I doubt the Instinct will cause even a blip on the Mogul/Vogue radar screen. If it turns out to be very popular.. great. I think Mogul/Vouge users will be totally fine with it.

i totally agree, if instinct turns out to be a hit then good for sprint but as a ppc user we dont feel threatened by the instinct cus we have nothing to envy

the instinct is a marketing device, not the best but sleek enough to get masses to buy it, but we all know thet our ppc's are more versatile and can do much more, so i really dont care if the instinct is a huge hit (more pple to bash and show off to lol)
