I support all things Qualcomm and Htc which means I support everything Sprint and all things EVO BRAND nothing is better plain and simple. I look forward to 2012 and the quadcore evo monster that will be out nothing will be better. I see my next EVO running a Quadcore 1.5 to 2.5Ghz Quadcore processor with 1.5gb of ram with a 10meg camera 16gb of internal storage and 4.7 to 5.0 inch screen. What topps this on android??? Nothing trust me

The problem is you CAN’T use the same device on other carriers. You have to keep buying a NEW ONE. Apple doesn’t allow you to reactivate the device on another carrier. Even if you buy unlocked you can’t switch to CDMA and keep using the same device.

There is a device that works on Sprint, Verizon and AT&T. You said it, the iPhone 4S does just that. Apple makes one iPhone 4S that works with all those carriers.

It would be nice if someone could make a device that worked on all networks but it is unlikely. Even Gobi, which allows laptops, to switch data usage between CMDA Networks and GSM Networks at a whim is not as good as it should be. If there is one device that you can buy then you can user-select the network and change (if they have contract) on demand, then it is not really useful to the end user. Why buy a Iphone 4S on Sprint, switch to Verizon and be forced to buy another one, or switch to AT&T and buy a different one…the real problem is the networks don’t want that hence it won’t reach it’s potential.
