Re: Whoever has this phone, do you like it?
I'm thinking about getting this too. Looks like they addressed some issues like battery life and speakerphone volume.
Has an available extended battery too that should extend talk time to over 21 hours.
Re: what exactly do we mean by other devices?????
This is good news that they are moving forward with this and that they've expanded the beta rollout footprint. I believe there are some combination WiMax/CDMA phones in the works.

The cuts will not start until after the holiday shopping season and Cingular hopes to ...
Re: Wow
Sprint would change the pricing structure of the wireless industry with this offer. Sprint would have to reprice their plans from bottom to top and that would force Verizon, Cingular, T-Mobile and Alltel to do so also. MVNO's would have to lower their rates also.
I hope they roll it out nationally as well.
