I always thought it wasn't the smartest idea for the CEO of Sprint to say that Andriod wasn't quite good enough for Sprint Nextel. I am not a Sprint basher at all, but when your company needs an innovative OS, it's not good to publically diss another company that is doing quite well for itself.

But imagine how powerful it will be on Sprint's network...should be interesting.

Hell yea! I currently have the Palm Pre with Sprint. Its a pretty cool phone.

But, when the Android phone comes out, I may get one of these. I saw those augmented reality applications-and they look fantastic! They are also only available on the Android and the iPhone 3GS.
