It’s an awesome idea but I would imagine the battery would die twice as fast. This phone would DEFINITELY need an extended battery, but then that would make it even more bulky. I would lose my mind without my 3500mAh battery in my Evo.

I thought you can’t have voice and data running simultaneously on a 3G CDMA network (i.e. surfing web and talking on phone), yet it is possible on Sprint’s 4G network (voice on CDMA network, data on WiMax). So why the hell would Sprint introduce a phone specifically geared for multitasking and NOT put it on their 4G network?

It’s a lot bulkier than I prefer @Chris.

I agree Chris. While I was disappointed with the hype over the Sprint event, hoping they would announce WP7 on their network, this is quite a fun, unique phone concept and I am looking forward to the possibilities with it. I have an upgrade coming up in April, and I was hoping for something better to arise on Sprint, but I can surely see myself with this phone for the sake of it’s uniqueness.

I shouldn’t like this, but I can’t help myself. Something about dual-display gadgets that are just appealing in a sci-fi way. Same as the Toshiba W100, I want one even though I know it’s flawed in so many ways.
