HTC Touch gets software update on Alltel: Sprint and Verizon users swoon.

While this may not have activated gps like many people were hoping for, this is a software update that has enabled EVDO Rev. A to work on this device. Who knows what other changes were put on this rom (good or bad?) At this point some of the usual suspects tot eh Windows Mobile world are trying to rip this puppy to pieces and get it working on other carrier's devices. They are even some people that (I hope are not holding their breaths) are hoping they can get gps working off of this rom. Either way ppcgeeks will probably have this working in no time flat.

Be cautious, if you are not with Alltel and flash this rom, you will have an expensive paperweight. This is the link to the download ****FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK**** Alltel only.

HTC Sprint Bombshell!?!?!?!?

Oh if this is true, prepared to be blown away. Apparently someone has leaked some shots that show the upcoming HTC devices codenamed Raphael and Diamond are coming, and they are coming to Sprint. This is fantastic news to Sprint subscribers who love the look of the Sony Xperia X1 that is salted for a GSM release (probably AT&T.)
The Diamond is allegedly a replacement for the Touch and Raphael is apparently a replacement for the Mogul.
Apparently the info Engadget is getting is that Raphael is slated for September and Diamond for November.

Both devices are said to have EVDO Rev. A, WIFI and a 3 megapixel camera. Is this too bgood to be true? Go to the link to see pics via engadget here.

Let's hope for something official at HTC big hoopla on May 6th.
