BlackBerry, PocketPC, and Power Vision lovers unite 'cause Sprint just unleashed three phones meant to distribute the love to all. First from the gate is the
IP-830W from Samsung (pictured center) we peeped on Sprint last month. For $600 with a 2-year plan ($750 without!), it's yours to take global with quad-band GSM / GPRS and CDMA / EV-DO pumpin' Windows Mobile 5 plus AKU2 on a 520MHz Intel PXA272 proc. Out next is another Sprint Sanyo clam in the form of the dual-band
Power Vision SCP-8400 (pictured right) with Bluetooth, 1.3 megapixel cam, and of course Live TV, Music downloads, and multiplayer game action. Yours for $100 after rebates, instant savings and your signature on a 2-year plan. Out last is the GPS-enabled BlackBerry
8703e which brings EV-DO speeds, Bluetooth and speakerphone for $350 after discounts and 2-year signup. Thing is, it's
already available on Verizon only without GPS navigation for $100 less. What to do, what to do.

And the K1m is already available on Verizon as well. But they sure don't have another boring Sanyo clamshell!

Just ordered a IP-830W and the 8703e. Will have them tomorrow morning.
We'll see how good this Samsung phone is. It's a little on the expensive side...

At that price I'd have hoped the I830 could have squeezed in GPS and lost that 'designed to emasculate' protrusion at the top!
