Thanks to the SprintFeed ninjas, we know Sprint will soon add HTC Evo 4G and Kyocera Echo to its End of Life (EOL) list. HTC’s baby has been on the market for almost a year and a half, bringing tons of new subscribers to the “Now” network in the process. The white version will stop being ordered this week, and the black one in early October.
As for the Echo, we’re kinda surprised it hit the list in just five months. I guess it hasn’t met the expectations, and we hope that won’t discourage Kyocera (and other handset makers for that matter) from pursuing innovative phone form factors. I really dig what the Japanese company has made, producing a slider phone with two touchscreens.
As for the other devices on the EOL list, there’s also the BlackBerry Bold 9650 and Sanyo Innuendo, both of which are there for a reason – i.e. no one wants them anymore…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
