Just to put a period on the saga between myself and a misinformed UbiquiTel Sprint Store, they have agreed that they will respect and comply with the overriding decision by Sprint Corporate. They do maintain that they did nothing wrong, and only left “factual” notes on my account.
Once again, we thank everyone that participated [...]

The AirPrime PC3300 has been released. Don’t have the price yet, and it is only on TeleSales. The AirPrime PC3300 includes a newer CDMA chipset over the PC3200, enabling upload speeds of up to twice as fast.

SonyEricsson T608 Page and the T608 Themes Page have received updates, and the phone pictures have been tweaked a little more.

The Motorola V710 promotion site (giving away a Bluetooth headset to some inital V710 buyers) asks what carrier you have, and it lists Sprint PCS.

The phone has Sprint brandings on it, so it appears to be headed to Sprint. The phone is a basic camera phone, the only thing that stands out about it (as [...]

HP has released a new firmware update for their popular h221X handheld. Version 1.10 includes updated Bluetooth drivers and manager, as well as fixes the issue with SDIO devices draining the battery, and 25 other issues. Hopefully this update will fix the issues the PDA was having with reconnecting to the SonyEricsson T608 [...]

Hopefully Sprint Stores have been issued this HP Test unit…
According to this article HP test machines may soon be able to also test the analog functions of a PCS phone. Some will even be able to do it with a simple software update.

The Phones Section has received a lot of updates, too many to list. Now that the backlog has been caught up, we hope to alert the newsfeed with the changes in each update.
