HTC Evo Shift?

Do you think this phone will come to Boost?

As of right now. Boost has no plans to bring the Evo Swift into their line up anytime in the future.

Evo Swift? Dont you mean the Evo Shift?

Sprint is still selling the Evo Shift with contracts. As is the usual case, Sprint probably had to sign a deal with HTC to buy/use so many units so that they could get exclusive rights to the device.

Option 1 is that they have just a bit more to go and so they're getting rid of them on their contract side. They make more money from contracts.

Option 2 is that they still have quite a stockpile of them to get rid of and so they're putting the last heave ho before they unload the device on Booost.

There's arguments supporting both sides. For option 1. The Shift is actually a pretty old phone, they must not have too many to go. For option 2. The Shift never achieved the momentum that the Evo 4g got. I'm sure you can come up with your own...

Aside from the Blackberry, how many phones made it to both Virgin and Boost?

I think the iPhone on Boost rumor was a misinterpretation of the fact that it was planned for Sprint Prepaid Group. Someone just assumed it was going to be Boost.

I've found out that there are some people who get very emotional when confronted with the fact that the iPhone is going to Virgin and not Boost. Cursing and threatening aside some are even willing to get into a physical duel! I've decided not to say anything about it and listen to whatever anyone wants to say about it. When the time comes it'll go to the network it is slated to go to...

I'm not built for physical confrontations. 8D
