I heard a while back that this RAZR2(V9) was coming to Sprint along with the new ROKR Z6m slider phone. Does anyone know if this is true or not because Sprint needs some good phones that are worth peoples money besides the Upstage and Mogul?

The V9m is going to be downgraded. Why? Seems like Moto has something against CDMA carriers.. LOL.

65k color TFT for V9m
262k color TFT for GSM V9 and V8.

Follow this link to the RAZR2 flash site. After it has loaded, click on the specs link in the lower right-hand corner, and click on V9m. It will clearly show just how much more crippled the V9m is compared to the V9 and the V8.
