Hybrid phones are the future! Using CDMA for voice and iDEN for Nextel PTT ... everyone that used a full Nextel iDen knows coverage is ify at times, especially when you travel the nation. That said, the PTT seems to work even in weak areas unlike the voice ... as a major solution Spring is offering CDMA Voice / iDEN PTT phones and they are great! Take the ic502, a military spec for rugged performance with CDMA and iDen.... it's killer!
Americans should always try to support Motorola over foreign firms as their patriotic duty. I do not hope to see overseas firms making iDen phones .. if they did they would be surely flimsy crap. Everyone that uses Nextel and now the Hybrid Sprint/Nextel knows that the equipment is extremely superior over the regular consumers cellular only phones.... Nextels are made tough!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I just switched to Sprint from Verizon about three months ago for the Pre. Then I went for the Hero about a week ago. Now, I miss my hardware keyboard and am thinking about switching to the Moment. I am still able to switch back to Verizon if I want and get the Droid when it arrives. Should I just trade up to the Moment when it comes out, see if I like it, and if not switch to the Droid? Or something else entirely? Help!"
