- Samsung Instinct HD SPH-M850 (Sprint)
- Photo gallery:Samsung Instinct HD SPH-M850Sprint Nextel stole the CTIA show last year when it introduced the Samsung Instinct.

- Samsung M240 (Sprint)
- The same day it introduced the touch-screen Samsung Rogue, Samsung quietly unveiled the Samsung M240. Made for Sprint, the M240 is all about communication. Features are few--you don't even get Bluetooth--and the simple flip-phone design lends itself to making calls. On that front it does a decent job, but its...

- Sprint extends unlimited plan to businesses; Shares jump on acquisition rumors
- Uh, didn't Sprint and Nextel use "different" technologies?I see the "technology" issue as a short term "problem".
