The story goes like this: Sprint was just standing around feeling a little lonely, only the Pre lighting her day. Then the big, brash and handsome (although deeply in debt to its international parents) US Government came along and popped the question, “wanna run the hightech equipement for our census?” Well, okay, maybe not, but [...]

If you are one of a growing number looking into buying yourself a sexy new touchscreen Smartphone, you might want to have a gander at the little comparison the BoyGeniusReport has put together between the T-Mobile G1, Sprint’s Palm Pre, Verizon’s Blackberry Storm, AT&T’s Apple iPhone, and their respective price plans.

Rather than compare the most [...]

Now, before starting off at a quick jog or wild motor through the streets to your nearest Sprint store, note that this is a rumor. That said, word on Sprint’s side of the street is that the carrier is currently testing two new Android handsets, one of which is the newly introduced HTC Hero. The [...]

Well, at least we can’t critique Sprint for being sneaky about it, because the ad they they have recently started distributing unabashedly targets users of the 1st gen iPhone who are coming off-contract and looking for something different, or as Sprint would say, better.

Specifically the ad looks to point out some of the iPhone’s main [...]

The first commercial for the Palm Pre, titled “Flow”, debuted last night on Facebook. The ad features 1,000 Kung Fu students in a very dream-like, remote location in China. They perform a synchronized routine around a woman with a Palm Pre and the intricacies of organizing so many people to perform one beautiful outcome is [...]

HTC and Sprint are gearing up to release both the all-in-one wonder Touch Pro2, follow up to the Touch Pro, and Snap devices, and we’ve got the pictures and release details. The device looks like it will continue the trend of being an excellent all-rounder, with a good looking keyboard and nice form factor.

The devices [...]

Oh jeez, just when we thought we could settle down a bit from all the recent press releases and leaks regarding the Pre. But no, here we are with both an official email and Press Release saying the long-awaited Palm Pre will be flying off shelves starting June 6th for an iPhone-like $199 on two [...]

It looks there are more exciting developments in the world of Pre, as demo units are reported to have started showing up in generic Palm packaging at Sprint stores across the nation. While this does not indicated for certain a launch date it does show a ramp up of activity surrounding the device. Sprint staff [...]

Sprint seems to think there are a lot of customers who want unlimited service plans without the long-term commitment - do you fall into that category? The company is betting that a lot of you would say “Yes” and they’re putting chips on the table - by the end of 2009 there will be 53 [...]

Samsung USA has been busy these last few weeks, with the release of at least four major handsets. However this time around we have the replacement for the Samsung Rant, the Samsung Exclaim M550.

This slider has some cool duel-slider action along with a decent list of specs. Included is a 2.6 inch QVGA display, [...]

The Palm Pre news just keeps pouring in, and the latest bits of information are pretty interesting.
First, the official business. The Pre is now slated to appear in Canada in the second half of 2009. The device will be available exclusively from Bell.

“We’re excited to bring Pre to Canada with Bell Mobility,” said Brodie [...]

IntoMobile has got its hands on the newest Instinct, the S30, for Sprint and they seem to be in love. Throughout the review they had almost no bad things to say about the newest Instinct.
For those not in the know, the Samsung Instinct S30 features a 3.2 inch resistive touchscreen, 2 megapixel camera, GPS, [...]

The numbers are not looking pretty for the release of the Pre. Out of 1000 Best Buy stores across the country only 4500 handsets will be available for consumers. This is a rather frightening ratio to consider, seeing as the hype surrounding this phone seems to grow daily. Some blogs are claiming that this is [...]

Much excitement and fanfare has followed the Palm Pre ever since its announcement. With the leak of the second WebOS phone - the Palm EOS - perhaps more attention will be focused on the WebOS platform rather than the first WebOS phone.
First of all, what we know (or think we know) about the device: 4GB [...]

Right now 3G speeds are becoming the standard but everyone has their eye on 4G which right now consists of WiMax/Clear and LTE. Sprint and the newly formed Clearwire have had some trouble getting their 4G network off the ground and they’ve now hit another major stumbling point… Nokia. While Nokia is usually more neutral [...]

That only took about 11 minutes or so. Under an hour after we published the first leaked image of Samsung’s update to the original Instinct, they’ve officially announced the Samsung Instinct S30. It’s smaller, rounder and just better overall… but we’ll let Sprint give you the rest of the details.
Of particular interest before you dive [...]

Samsung has just released the first press photo of the Samsung Instinct S30, initially rumored as the Samsung Instinct Mini, but no details have yet been released. Chances are this thing will get its superstar treatment at CTIA Wireless before the event concludes on Friday. It’s internal “Instinct Mini” moniker appears to be at least [...]

Although Samsung hasn’t officially announced it, PhoneScoop got word that the Samsung SWD-M100 Mondi will be the first Mobile WiMax device on Sprint’s newly branded “Clear” 4G network. It’s got a huge screen and slideout QWERTY and all in all, looks promising:

Samsung’s main difficulty in pushing this device is that Sprint’s 4G network is available [...]

Right now, Sprint is the only carrier in the United States to offer a 4G wireless signal.
