Spinach Could Be Used For Hydrogen Fuel

  1. re Kyocera Echo by freddieb · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I have had Sprint for a number of years. I have one android phone on my account and my only criticism is the battery life. I expect this dual screen phone will have horrible battery life. I think Sprint really missed the mark on this one. I think most Sprint users were hoping for the iphone4 since Verizon does not have an exclusive contract on that device. Maybe Sprint is not in a position financially to introduce the Iphone. The big intro of the Kyocera may generate enough outcry to bring some new hardware to Sprint. Hopefully the Iphone and/or some of the Motorola Droids.
