The rather decked
Sanyo M1 has managed to get musicphone-yearnin' Sprint fanboys salivating already, without even a complete set of press shots to glom onto. Well, we're here to set the story straight, with a few press photos from an anonymous tipster of the M1 in all its glory, along with a full-on spec sheet for your perusal. As evidenced by
those eBay shots we spotted in October, the phone isn't exactly RAZR bustin' when it comes to slim, but it's still plenty pocketable, and those fancy deets like 1GB of memory, a 2.0 megapixel camera (with flash), A2DP, and a QVGA internal display should justify the bulk here -- for wearers of all but the slimmest of jeans, at least. The best news is that the phone is purportedly set for a soft launch tomorrow, December 3rd, and some reports are coming in of phone orders going through already. Apparently the phone costs $349 -- we believe that's without contract -- but we suppose we'll find out all of this tomorrow, so no use sweating the small stuff at this point. Keep reading for that spec sheet and a few jumbo pics.

That's my next phone. I already ordered mine through Sprint Telesales and got a tracking number. Phone should be in my hand on Monday. Sweet!
I have this phone and let me tell you it's awesome, I love how you can browse the files on another bt device and listen to music while browsing the web
Does it have a memory card slot? 1GB built in is nice, but expandable to 2GB is nicer.
No matter how much perfume you spray on $#*+ it's still gonna be $#*+. Sprint is like further behind in tech then Cingular which is just a a little behind verizon (their GUI SUCKS!). When I left them I wondered if I would look back and yearn for any phone or service they released. As it is Helio is probably THEE hot provider right now in terms of features if not phones (but that Drift is kinda sweet built in GPS!) Sanyo fell off after their second camera phone.
the 1GB memory is nice, but that phone is thick and ugly, especially compared to the m610 I ordered.
A wonderful little phone. Not as thin as a RAZR or KRZR but it has a 2.0MP camera, FM transmitter, bluetooth with A2DP (stereo) and a QVGA screen? Sign me up! Nicest phone Sprint has ever sold.
It may not be as thin as the razr but i bet the battery last longer!
