About a month ago I was in my local (right around the corner) Sprint PCS store. I was talking to the "Tech" (they are the only people who know anything) about 3G services. He told me about a few phones that would be coming out. He said NEC would be coming out with some phones. I dint beleive he knew what he was talking about I assumed he meant Audiovox. ANyway Apparently There will be NEC Sprint PCS handsets. Now if only we would hear about some Sprint PCS MS Smartphones. I am getting sick of seeing Palm OS phones at Sprint. Samsung has a new one coming out. It looks nice but still Palm. I think Samsung is just hoing around with all the OSs.
