Sprint won't be getting the Omnia from what I've heard. Sprint is working with Samsung on a successor to the Instinct.

Where did you find this good tidbit of information?

I think sprint should go directly to the T omnia with vga screen. That is the true winner.

The jealousy is starting to get the better of me I'm about to start searching Verizion's plan options....

lol... I think the Omnia would be too pricey for entry level smart phone territory.. Not to say the Instinct is a smart phone.. It is not.. Anyways, I believe Sprint would have chose the Omnia instead of the Instinct if that was their game plan..

Actually.. With Sprint having the Diamond from HTC, and no clear idea if Verizon will get a version (it's rumored anyway) of their own, this could be their touchscreen smart phone that has no keyboard... They have the TP and the Omnia.. Sprint has the TP and the Diamond.. Don't want a million phones with similiar features competing for a limited set of customers.. That will canibalize sales for Verizon.. No need to spend money on two similiar products to get them FCC-approved if they will compete with each other...

Why not buy a phone, then choose the service. It seems like jumping providers is based on phone selection- Too bad- thats not the approach outside the US. i personally, wanted the TP but sitting on the pine for the next great phone to drop.- omnia would be a great addition especially if the battery last all day- hell, have you heard of the Nokia N97- sweet phone- to bad its a GSM for the European market.

SPRINT- needs to keep pace with the rest of the providers.

just my 2 cents........
