So is this thing even real? I would LOVE a G2-like device on sprint, heck ill even take that funky hinge.

But is this ever going to be reality? Or maybe it will be dislike the G2 in some ways but different in others? I don't know, but me likey and me want.

Anyone else thinking the same thing ?

UPDATE - It's expected release is 01.9.11 .... Stay tuned folks :D

The name seems a little odd. This looks nice, but from recent research its supposed to be a slightly downgraded evo with a keyboard. The HTC Hd7 seems waiting for though.
 
How does it seem downgraded? The 800mhz processor is not conpareable at the same clock speed as they are newer generation than the evos processor..

The newer snap dragons have killer speed at 800, when the older ones have to be clocked to 1ghz to match it.

And the smaller screen? Oh well, maybe a amoled or slcd.. No HDMI? Who uses it anyways ..
 
It'll probably have Sense... So I'm guessing a CDMA Desire Z. I still want one, though. CyanogenMod will make it Senseless for me :)
 
Yea... I heard that 800 processor or dual core floating around....I'm gonna say dual core is a .1% chance though.....

ya definitely no dual core unless it comes out in March or sometimes near there.

I kinda want to see this phone too. If its good I may bail on my epic, I love it but I like new toys

I'm in love with the g2 and if this thing is similar I will ditch my evo in a heartbeat....I hope sense doesn't bog down the speed of it though

Wouldn't be quick on that assumption. Sprint is pushing Sprint ID pretty hard and that makes any phone very close to stock Android.

Now that's not true.. my next phone won't have to be dualcore....its the realtime speed that counts...look at the g2 its blazing at 800mhz

I really hope this won't have the same hinge as the Z, but it does sound like quite a good option on Sprint. I wish they'd use the Touch Pro 2 slide design.

If it is joined by the HTC 7 Pro that also looks like a good solid business device, and a potential larger slider running WebOS 2.0 flagship (rumors), that would be a tough choice on Sprint. C'mon January!
 
Nothing new on this potential release for awhile now. Is everyone still thinking a January release is possible? Please!??
 
I agree, we need a high res photo shoot with the leaked phone.
 
Any chance this has a Touch Pro2 slide mechanism instead of the Desire Z finger-snapper thingy?
 
going to merge

o man, I can't wait to see the actual device being released to for GSM networks like HTC usually does so I can go buy it when I get back to Thailand to convert from my HTC Touch Pro into android!
