Samsung Intrepid intros Sprint to Windows Mobile 6.5 on October 11
Looking for a worthy successor to that aging Ace? Sprint customers need no longer wonder when they'd be up for their own dose of WinMo 6.5 because the carrier has officially announced the Intrepid, a portrait QWERTY device that basically brings the design of the OmniaPRO B7320 and AT&T's Jack over the CDMA world. Like its predecessor, though, the Intrepid isn't just about CDMA -- it'll also do GSM for global roaming, so feel free to pack it as you gallivant across the Mediterranean, and unlike the Jack, the Intrepid's got a QVGA touchscreen up top to compliment the chiclet keys down below. At any rate, you'll be able to pick this up starting this Sunday, October 11 for $149.99 on contract after rebates -- the same price as a Pure over on AT&T, coincidentally, so pick your poison.[Thanks, Jay]

No one swears by the Treo Pro's keyboard - believe me, I've had one for the last 6 months.
This keyboard looks pretty nice. Too bad the screen looks a lot shorter than the Treo Pro's.

Yes, I'm getting this puppy! The tellme function looks pretty cool too.

Since you can add a SIM card for GSM, does that mean you can use it with AT&T and T-mobile?
