not announcing an Android phone for Q2/Q3 2009 (i.e. now or for CES) is pretty much on track with the statement above.]]>Dec 11th 2008 9:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/
Seriously. I'm looking to change away from T-Mobile because they have poor coverage in my new area, but AT&T and Verizon want a ridiculous amount in monthly fees to give me what I have now. If Sprint had a phone that appealed to me, I would pick Sprint in a second. I don't want something buttoned down for business like the WinMo and Blackberry devices, I want something focused on the consumer, like the iPhone but with a keyboard.]]>Dec 11th 2008 10:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/Dec 11th 2008 11:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/Dec 11th 2008 10:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/Dec 12th 2008 12:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/Dec 11th 2008 11:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/
Here is why they need it:
1) People, including myself, are already porting the HTC Touch to run Android.
2) The Instinct sucks, Samsung had a good idea...but it's a janky phone.
3) Android is the only platform that feels good like the iPhone. ]]>Dec 11th 2008 11:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/Dec 11th 2008 11:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/
This is what kills me! I've been with Sprint for 8 years and I've already sent them a letter stating that I will be jumping ship in May if they do not have a good Android handset on the horizon. They better stop worrying just about new customers and start worry about the few they have left. If Sprint can do something to stem the exodus I think the same actions will also bring in new customers.]]>Dec 12th 2008 8:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/Dec 12th 2008 9:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/sprint-keeping-a-watchful-eye-on-g1-will-offer-android-when-it/
