Does anyone know if Sharp ever has plans to make phones for the United States? I dont see why the arent making phones for us now.

Yes, I do. Read this:
"Sharp has introduced several advanced mobile video phones in Europe [and] is looking to expand sales of its phones further into Europe and in North America. "

The story's about the new Sidekick but this paragraph talks about Sharp's phones in general.
Yippee!

Actually were going to be carrying the Sharp TM-150, at least that's what I heard.

i'd rather see the TM100 come than the 150...the 150 is just fugly IMO...

Tm100 and Tm150 are going to have the same features. except Tm100 is tri band ( 900/1800/1900). I think Tm150 is going to be 900/1900 Dual Band. you can take my word.

you'd think the TM150 would at least be tri band, quad band would be better but well Sharp's decision making abilities are suspect ever since they neutered the GX32

i think 99 % Sharp TM150 going to be dual band 900/1900. Samsung and T-Mobile are Smart.
Posted by: kingfans

Posted by: BMWFilms
eww...no BT just kills it then for me...youd think they'd learn by now and actually fix the BT
Posted by: tmojay
i really like the tm150 but i demand bluetooth and mp3 from my phones. i have a 6230 so there aren't any other phones that appeal to me right now.
maybe a samsung p735 but i doubt it will have a speaker phone. it does have a 1MP cam, mmc, and mp3 player.

Has anybody compared the reception with the TM150 to the V600 on T-Mobile?
