Sprint Launching Hero (Android) Oct 11th!
Great news for all of you Sprint users – you can get an amazing phone on October 11th. Android will finally be on CDMA! Sprint will be the first American carrier to launch the HERO – an amazing device from HTC. It offers a reskin of the Android OS you saw on the MyTouch and G1. The Hero has been available in Europe for a few months – we are pumped it will be available in the US and excited to have a new partner – Sprint! Sprint announced that beginning on Oct. 11, customers will be able to purchase HTC Hero through all Sprint retail channels including Web (www.sprint.com), Telesales (1-800-SPRINT1) and their national retail partner Best Buy for $179.99 (excluding taxes) after a $50 instant savings and a $100 mail-in rebate with a two-year service agreement. Pre-registration begins today at www.sprint.com/hero.
They’ve got the official press release up now – no chin, $179 after rebate…although it’s NOT the same no-chin phone that leaked yesterday.
