We’ve heard that Sprint plans to join Microsoft’s mobile initiative and offer Windows Phone 8 devices, namely those made by Samsung and HTC. Looks like first such smartphone (HTC PL80110) has hit the FCC, boasting LTE connectivity support, NFC, EV-FO and 1xRTT. That’s pretty much all we could get from the phone’s “not that revealing” FCC listing.
But wait, there’s more – and this is where it becomes a bit confusing. You see, this device is marked as PL80110 and as far as we know, it could be the HTC One SV. The problem with that claim is that One SV is an Android smartphone, while the docs clearly state Windows Phone is running the show. So we’re not sure what to think. Actually, we like to believe this isn’t One SV since it’s an everything-but-exciting device and we would rather see Now Network joining Microsoft’s party than add yet another insignificant Android smartphone to its portfolio. In case you fancy so, you can access FCC’s listing for yourself from here.

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.
