Take this one with several grains of salt and a side order of wishful thinking, but rumour has it Sprint is working on releasing their own version of the recently-announced HTC Hero, only it’ll supposedly be running on WiMAX and CDMA. I seriously doubt this will actually happen, considering Sprint CEO Dan Hesse has gone on record and said that Android isn’t currently good enough for their network, but it’s entirely possible that what HTC was able to do with their Sense UI changed Sprint’s mind. They could certainly use a killer handset like the Hero to justify all the work on the XOHM WiMAX network, that’s for sure.
