The Samsung M520 recently became available for sale on the Sprint web site. This Power Vision phone is an update to the M510 and is the first EV-DO slider from Sprint. It has a music player, microSD slot for storage up to 4GB, a 1.3 megapixel camera, and the ability to multi-task between applications. It also includes GPS, stereo Bluetooth and access to Sirius satellite radio. It will cost $50 after rebates with new two-year contract.

And wasn't the green LG Rumor comming out today?
LG Rumor comes on in March - And this is basic cosmetic upgrade to the M510 - The internal programming is the same as the M510 as it is in the M520
Don't forget that POS LG slider that was really a bad design and didn't last long on the market. Now, this. Sprint, how about doing what AT&T does. Release the SAME phone but different colors? Your Purple/Green or whatever color YOU decided (not the e...

This phone looks pretty solid, don't compare it to a Rumor (which isn't a bad phone after the latest update), its a much different phone.
Very good design, appears well built, only time will tell if there's bugs though.
