 ·Sprint Mobile Broa..
1 edit | The Androids are coming the Androids are coming!!!
Will it go on TMos so called 3G... The one that no one has ever seen, smelled or even figured out where it is?
Will it allow Tether?
Will it have good battery life?
Will it talk?
Will it tell my wife to shut the F-up when she's yapping and giving me a headache? |

| Hope it's true
My wife's contract expires in Nov., and we both need new phones. I'm willing to dump Sprint for a decent Android phone -- this one looks like it would suit me perfectly. I'm already a longtime user of Gmail and Google Calendar. Hopefully it will have wi-fi. I'm also interested in getting the $10 Tmo-at-home service since we don't have ANY home phone now |

Thought Sprint would be first since they have the WiMAX relationship with Google as well as the largest 3G footprint. |

| If it is only 3G...
If it only supports 3G, then I would pass. If it has a fallback to 2G GSM then fine. Unfortunately it appears this will be 3G only phone. Good luck with that T-Mobile. I'll stick with my current TMO phone.

Hingham, MA | I really doubt they'd make a non-2G phone, especially for T-Mobile of all carriers... I think now 2G/EDGE is essentially assumed. (except for phones going to the Chinese market, which I believe is still mainly GPRS) |

Re: Expected Sprint first
Totally irrelevant. HTC makes phones for CDMA and GSM.
The reason this is going to T-Mobile is because Sprint isn't the only company that Google works with- they've also been working very much with T-Mobile USA's parent company. This phone is supposed to be an international launch across T-Mobile International's networks, or so I've heard. |

Re: If it is only 3G...
I would bet that it has 2G to fall back on to if it is a 3G phone. I have never seen a 3G phone that does not. |

So, it's not "totally irrelevant" when T-Mobile and Deutsche Telekom operate a dozen GSM networks around the globe, and that "GSM is more prevalent worldwide", then is it?
