No exact word but there have been several mentions about Sprint being the next carrier and the only other carrier mentioned at this time. I would say end of 1st 09 just as a guess... 😉

doubtfull but I will keep an eye out, and say this... we are looking at end of 1st quarter 09, theres nothing official yet but that is what ive heard from a Product Ambassador, and not one from a store we are talking a lot more in the test side. Samsung Moto and LG are all in the Sprint line up to devolop Android phones at this time.

okay so that may seem a little misleading about the phone companys that are looking at Android they are all lined up to release a device with Android but no word on who it will be for, they are just manufactures that sprint uses that are looking into releasing an Android device other than HTC.

No, we don't have a solid release date. But 'less then six months' isn't a bad answer, don't you think?
