FCC Approves CDMA-Toting Sharp Phone
Feb 13, 2010, 9:30 AM by Eric M. Zeman
Today documents seen on the FCC web site revealed a new, unannounced phone from Sharp. The documents don't confirm much about the device, but they do offer a few surprises. This Sharp phone is a slider, and it has CDMA EVDO Rev. A, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi (802.11b/g) radios on board. The vast majority of phones made by Sharp in recent years have all had GSM radios on board, such as the Sidekick line of devices from Danger (which was acquired by Microsoft in 2008). The FCC documents don't say anything about the phone's operating system or other features.

Hahahaaaaaaa! I think they are calling this the "turtle".
Hopefully it will be released in time for Easter! 😁
As fas as I know nor does Sprint (yet).
Verizon also didn't sell android until recently, or webos, and isn't ZTE making a phone for Verizon? a 1x touchscreen?
Im thinking Virgin Mobile, UScellular, or some other discount carrier that dosent mind selling you cheapo phones.
Project "Pink" (WINMO 7) phone?
According to Engadget and others this profile fits for a new Window 7 Device that is part of Microsoft's "Pink" project.
Pink is a series of WINMO devices aimed at Teens/Young Adults and is built around Social networking.
I still think it looks like an egg phone.. but we'll have to see what Windows 7 looks like. Apparently they are basically doing a PalmOS-->WebOS level rewrite.
Microsoft might not be known for being stylish.. but when they want to do something... they do it.

I hope it is a success if this is what it is. It can help keep the pressure on Apple, Google, and maybe the Finns will wake up. More competition is always better for us as consumers.
Sharp phones
The worst phones I owned were made by sharp, pure junk. Sharp should just stay out of the cell phone arena.
I know what you mean. The irony is that Sharp makes excellent quality phones for Europe and Asia. Most people would be surprised at how advanced their Jap market phones are. Their reliability is pretty good too.

My first phone that comes anywhere close to high-end, that I owned way back in summer of 2006 had a 3.2 af camera with 3x optical zoom, and stereo speakers. It was a damn fine handset.
It was the Sharp V903
