Question for Nextel18

EliteSoja

Mar 31, 2005, 7:05 PM
Ok I understand you cant give out alot of information in all but I was wondering if you ever heard/seen this phone http://ces.engadget.com/entry/123400095702663 4/ theres the link.

I think its only avaible for Japan, you think sprint will have a phone like this in the near future?? I really like the feature which allows you to have alot of control over your phone with the flip closed. You think sprint will have some Sanyo phones comming out with this feature???

Please give me somekind of information if you have any. ☹️

i have heard something about that phone. yea it is available only for japan at this moement. i looked at its features and its display and it sort of looks like a phone for sprint pcs, but it also looks like it could be for verizon becuase of that Brew technology. the 2.4mb/s is basically 1xev-do which can fit either sprint or verizon's platforms.

remember, it might take years before it comes to the united states, oh yea, just in time before nextel/sprint deploys their REV O and REV A network. seems to be on time for a sprint release, but again it could also be for verizon.

do i think that sanyo could come out with that feature? i do belive so.

if i had to guess which one it would be on either sprint/nextel or verizon. i would say...

They are basically revisions, both that is on the EV-DO networks. REV O has slower speeds with data speeds then REV A. REV A has very good speeds and there are more applications that you can do because of the higher speeds, and lower latencies.

Sprint is doing REV O, but in 2007-2008 they are rolling out REV A with Nextel.

Verizon is doing REV O.

If you want the technical stuff go to Qualcomm's web site which is... http://www.qualcomm.com/technology/1xev-do/mi gration.html It explains what REV O and REV A are and their speeds etc..

i can tell you 100% this phone would never be avalible threw verizon. sprint has a contract with sanyo to be the exclusive carier of sanyo in the us.

if you noticed i said that it would probably be for sprint over verizon. i know, but things can change.

so again, if you saw what i said... i said it would probably be out for verizon.

you need to read the WHOLLLEEEEE thing not only a selected part.

yes you did say it would probubly be out for verizon.

the origional question that was asked is would the phone be avalible threw sprint in the us.

you said probubly so you were unclear. i however have do know for a fact that sprint is under exclusive agreement with sanyo. so i posted to clear up some uncertany. i am sorry you are so insecure

again.. no name calling. it shows your lack of maturity.

by the way read it again and slowly...

"remember, it might take years before it comes to the united states, oh yea, just in time before nextel/sprint deploys their REV O and REV A network. seems to be on time for a sprint release, but again it could also be for verizon.

do i think that sanyo could come out with that feature? i do belive so.

if i had to guess which one it would be on either sprint/nextel or verizon. i would say sprint. verizon doesnt really have nice phones, while sprint's are great."

"just in time for sprint/nextel. seems to be on time for a sprint release. if i had to guess i would say it would be on sprint."

very clear to me.

hahahah. how immature of you. posting incorrect information. shame on you. now you have to defame my character.

the funny thing is.. you say its not coming here? well it could. you said its not compatible of course it is.

anything that is in japan could come to united states, cept it takes a long time to do so.

compatibily....

1. its on the ev-do network which sprint will be launching as well as other providers in united states. (just verizon actually)
2. as someone else on here said that sanyo is the only usa provider that can be offered to sprint.
3. it is on the CDMA network which sprint runs.


seems to be very compatible to me.

but again, you just say your stupidity with no backing up, while i do. thus; your wrong...

And the Starship Enterprise could enter our atmosphere if you "tweaked" some things here and there. ANY phone can be redesigned to work anywhere. THAT phone is not compatible as is in the US. That's what she asked. And you told her it'll work here. It won't.

that phone could be compatible in the united states. they would just change the freq and the software inside the phone so that it would be compatible with sprint's cdma network.

so THAT phone would be compatible.


no that person asked if it could come here for sprint in the near or long-term future. (you need to read things better)

come on, sir, seriously read things better.

Who the **** is going to "change the frequency and software"? Ronald McDonald? Stop leading her on and give her accurate information. That phone will not work in the United States...period.

The W22SA is a CDMA EV-DO phone, which is similar technology to what Sprint is currently deploying. But they use different frequencies in Japan, so the W22SA is not compatible with U.S. networks at all.

In the past, Sanyo has been known to use a Japanese phone as a basis for a Sprint phone, but that is happening less frequently these days. Part of that is due to Sanyo putting ReadyLink PTT on most of its phones, which requires a large speaker. They don't have PTT in Japan, so now they usually have to do special designs just for Sprint.

I think the last Sprint phone to be based on a Sanyo Japanese phone was the 8100, which was based on the J-SA05 design:

thanks Rich, like always for your wonderful information. i have always learned from you, and loved your posts. (i am not sucking up, just telling the truth)

i was just telling much drama that they would base it on that phone and things of that nature. i was saying if they would tweak some of the freq for what they use over there to that phone it could work over here. that guy anyway, (not much) was asking if those types of phones would come out in the future and i said yes, becuase that is true. most phones from asia and those countries come here, obviously they are modified but they do still come here.

again, thanks..

It might be based on a Japanese design, but neither phone will work in...

Umm the W22SA has Stereo Speakerphone which is probably louder then all the Sanyo phones availble for sprint today so the Design wouldnt have to really change. They would have to add Readylink to that phone though

Stereo doesn't necessarily mean louder. It's higher quality, though.

Well I bet there louder and higher quality.....think about it the speakers now are Mono and that phone has Stereo speakers. Stereo speakers are louder than Mono speakers

nextel18

Apr 9, 2005, 2:18 PM
well one would think so, but usually that isnt what happens. for example if you have a loud speaker it might not be that great. (it could be distorted and things like that)

you do have an interesting point, but you want a speaker that isnt that loud but is very clear to hear.

Stereo speakers are not louder than mono speakers. They just give the illusion they're louder because they offer sound in more channels.

Gone down hill? I'm not sure I understand the metaphor. Someone brought up stereo speakers are louder than mono speakers. This simply isn't true, so I set them straight. If you don't want to hear about this type of thing, bring up something better.
