Dec 8, 2005, 2:34 PM by (staff)

Sprint Nextel today announced the Sanyo MM-7500, a new sport-styled EV-DO phone with extensive customization options. In addition to changeable color panels on the outside, the MM-7500 is Sprint's first phone to include Qualcomm's uiOne technology for "skinning" the whole user interface (UI) of the phone. The MM-7500 includes two themes: "hip hop" and "tropical". Sprint will fully launch its Themes service early next year, when it will start selling a full range of downloadable Themes, including sports-related Themes that provide quick access to scores and video highlights.

Looks sweet

Now i'm not sure if I want to buy the Samsung A940 or wait for this to go out and get it.

Truthfully I wouldn't go with the A940. I work at a Sprint store and the A920 is a lot nicer, unless you really want the swivel. My boss and co-worker have it and kinda regret it. But they still like it, it's still an awesome phone.

Is this something Different...?

Is this any different than what the sony ericsson s710 does? Or even the older t616 where menus, icons, wallpapers, animations change with a new theme? I think the moto v551 has the ability to do skins/themes too
