Sprint is really looking to expand its data-side services, and it makes sense, given their struggles in the traditional voice-call market. Sprint is apparently going to pickup the CDMA/EVDO version of the HTC Shift. We knew that the HTC Shift was a-comin’ in GSM/CDMA flavors (thanks, FCC) , and it seems that Sprint will have the honor of offering this hybrid mobile device to US customers. The 7-inch touchscreen display, QWERTY keyboard, 800 Mhz processor, 1GB RAM, a 40GB hard drive, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.0 that we see in the GSM HTC Shift remain unchanged.
Of course, we’ll be seeing Sprint offer a CDMA/EVDO radio in their own version of the HTC Shift – as the HTC HTCX9000 Shift CDMA.
Look for a $1500 price point when it drops. Pre-order yours today at Amazon.com.
