As a service technician the litmus paper doesnt lie. I live in Florida and people start talking about humidity and the like. The ONLY reason the paper turns red IS if moisture touched the paper. Be it rain, a babys spit, sweat.. it is still moisture. There has been extensive testing on humidity and moisture with the litmus paper.

iDEN is NOT TDMA or else it would have been called TDMA. iDEN is the ONLY cellular network with the MOTOtalk (PTT) you didnt see att or tmobile using radio did you?

The ic502 IS geared more toward Nextel/iDEN users to give more cellular capacity. I am a Sprint Nextel dealer/service technician and I have seen some phones from both sides of the company. No its not going to have all of the Sprint features, not yet anyway. It is the first of its kind, nobody else has anything like it. There will be Hybrids that have EV-DO Bluetooth and cameras and video recorders. But let them work the kinks out first and then we will really see the power of Sprint/Nextel. As for the looks, Nextel has the BEST looking phones on the market. Nextel is based on functionality not features if you cant use the phone what good is the camera or bluetooth going to do, and they still do it with style. The ic502 will be a interesting product to say the least. But be on the lookout for the ic902
