No current EVDO handsets are not compatible with any other revisions which is a real pain. Right now Sprint is working on getting EVDO Rev. A handsets to be released mid '07, which means to take advantage of Rev. A a user must upgrade his/her handset, once Rev. B comes out same thing and so on for any Revisions.
Are you sure about that? I figure there must be a way to prep a handset to be forward compatible. My Sprint Mogul was ROM flashable from EVDO Rev. 0 to Rev A. Worked like a charm. Or is this what you mean by "upgrade his/her handset?"

...then again I got my Mogul in early 2008 and your post is end of 2006. Well, they were only off by 6-12 months.
