HTC knocks out the first Windows Phone 7 handset for Sprint in the Arrive, a sideways slider that has a full QWERTY keyboard and the latest software from Microsoft. Does anything set the Arrive apart from the crop of WP7 phones?
The HTC Arrive is the first Windows Phone 7 device hitting Sprint's network. The Arrive sets itself apart from the competition by offering a slide-out keyboard that tilts up for better viewing. If you're in the market for a business-focused smartphone and plan to do plenty of typing, the Arrive has a certain amount of appeal.
