Sprint New Products RoadMap for Q3 2008

For the next couple of months from the end of the one we’re currently in, expect to see at least 11 new handsets in Sprint’s mobile network.Though the document doesn’t exactly look magazine-quality, this is a case where we’d argue that it doesn’t have to be to be real; it’s clearly for internal use only, for one thing, and secondly, we don’t know where else the picture of that new Sanyo Katana Eclipse would come from.

Similar to what we have heard, the new Palm Treo 800w will be announced/released on July 13th. Motorola RAZR VE20 and the new Sanyo Katana Eclipse (SCP-6750) are planned for August 17th release. The Sanyo Katana Eclipse  would probably the next slim clam shell phone from Sanyo Katana family.Windows Mobile smartphone users can look forward to a new HTC device, called HTC MP6950 in September. While there isn’t any information on the HTC MP6950, it is most likely to be the HTC Touch Diamond in CDMA flavour.
