Today Sprint has announced its own edition of the HTC Pro 7, the HTC Arrive, making them the very first on the WP7 block for the CDMA market.
At $199.99, the HTC Arrive will be available on March 20th for all Sprint Customers on a typical 2-year contract period. It appears it will be on pre-order very soon, and it will end up with a 3G -only service. As opposed to the recent influx of WiMaX phones. We bet it will do pretty well, and perhaps may even bring some Verizon Customers to Sprint over the phone. It’s definitely an attempt to sway the tides and gain Sprint some momentum they’ve already lost greatly since the release of the EVO.
It’s pretty much a release of the HTC 7 Pro for the Sprint Market, very much like the Touch Pro and Touch Pro2 in previous years. It should help Sprint especially in the dryer months ahead.
