And the statement "I gotta say, I really like Sprint, but they dont have enough good phones. I woulda jumped ship(to find a better phone) to another carrier but all the other ones are so expensive per month so I stayed with Sprint." is not a positive statement towards Sprint. How are these people "Sprint Apologists"?? And did you hear the part of the article that said early 2010?? And why do you think wifi is a bad idea; you do realize that wifi enabled phones have an off switch for the radio, dont you??

Why would you make up silly statements to discredit a corporation on blog.. Sprint isnt the best carrier for everyone but they sure work great for alot of people.. ]]>Jul 10th 2009 1:06AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/09/sprint-mandating-wifi-on-future-smartphones-wlan-lovin-blackbe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/09/sprint-mandating-wifi-on-future-smartphones-wlan-lovin-blackbe/
Once again, you're a joke without a punchline. But, a joke nonetheless.]]>Jul 10th 2009 10:12AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/09/sprint-mandating-wifi-on-future-smartphones-wlan-lovin-blackbe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/09/sprint-mandating-wifi-on-future-smartphones-wlan-lovin-blackbe/Jul 9th 2009 10:29PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/09/sprint-mandating-wifi-on-future-smartphones-wlan-lovin-blackbe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/09/sprint-mandating-wifi-on-future-smartphones-wlan-lovin-blackbe/
*checks VZWs lineup for the Palm Pre*

Way behind there...

Open content or walled garden there at VZW? Yeah, walled garden.

Also overpriced (VZW's "everything" plans are anywhere from $20 to $40 more/month than Sprint's). You're welcome to pay up to $480 more a year for comparable service, but I've got beer to buy and I likes my interwebs open...

Verizon - Pay more, do less...

You are 110% FAIL.
We can do MORE because we HAVE Americas Largest 3G network.

Tell me, why did Sprint lock down the Snap?
No WiFi, no GSM roaming, and its 100.00 more...

pay less for less, or for this phone, pay more for less... lol]]>Jul 10th 2009 11:26AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/09/sprint-mandating-wifi-on-future-smartphones-wlan-lovin-blackbe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/09/sprint-mandating-wifi-on-future-smartphones-wlan-lovin-blackbe/

all 3G uses CDMA technology.. do some research. GSM Air interface technology died with EDGE.

Overseas uses CDMA technology.... everywhere..... there is no country in the world with 3G that does not use CDMA technology.]]>Jul 9th 2009 10:38PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/09/sprint-mandating-wifi-on-future-smartphones-wlan-lovin-blackbe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/09/sprint-mandating-wifi-on-future-smartphones-wlan-lovin-blackbe/Jul 10th 2009 12:04AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/09/sprint-mandating-wifi-on-future-smartphones-wlan-lovin-blackbe/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/09/sprint-mandating-wifi-on-future-smartphones-wlan-lovin-blackbe/
