Sprint follows Boost, gets Motorola Clutch i465 this summer
Sprint subsidiary Boost Mobile got first dibs, but now it's the parent's turn -- which means Sprint proper will be taking delivery of the Motorola Clutch i465 for its Direct Connect iDEN network this summer. No exact release date was given, but interest parties are welcome to sign up now to be informed when they can drop the cash -- $39.99 on contract, to be exact, after the application of a total of $70 in rebates on a new two-year agreement. The little beast gives you full QWERTY (a Motorola first for iDEN), mil-spec 810F compliance for withstanding the worst you can throw at it, Bluetooth, GPS, and a VGA camera that isn't likely to win you any photography awards. Of course, if you want it that badly, you could just make the leap to Boost today -- but otherwise, stay tuned.

isn't this redundant, doesn't Sprint own Boost?

Always nice to see new IDEN phones, but it'd be great if they made an attempt to beef up their OS. I've got an IDEN that is 2 years old and has similar software.

What makes iDen so much better than CDMA or GSM that its worth keeping the technology around other than for legacy customers?

i think iDen its cheaper also it has an i in front of it so i have to love it. Any way that phone keyboard looks life it was used to torture POWs to tell the Russians "Vere Da Tunvel Is. Why does Moto hate us ?
