Without any fanfare whatsoever Sprint has added to its Android lineup with the 810G military-specced Motorola i886. The water/temperature/dust/shock/accidentpronesmartphoneuser resistant handset isn’t high-powered on the hardware side, but it does feature an interesting dual-keyboard design. One slides out, while the other is a standard numerical dialpad located below the screen.
The phone features Nextel Direct Connect and is $79.99 after a $50 mail-in rebate.

Useful for some, I guess.
What version of Android is it using?
The only evidence as to this phone having Android, is in the spec sheet on the Latin American Motorola site, where it says that it’s using Android’s music player: http://www.motorola.com/Consumers/XA-ES/Consumer-Products-and-Services/Mobile-Phones/ci.i886-XA-ES.alt
WHAT IS WRONG WITH SPRINT AREN’T THEY SUPPOSEDLY GOING TO AN ALL CDMA NETWORK INSTEAD OF THE IDEN/CDMA NETWORK THEY HAVE NOW REALLY WHAT IS THE COMPANY’S INTENTION (FUCKING DUMB ASSES)
@Juan, we also have the picture above that clearly has an Android task bar and Android buttons (Home and Back are clearly visible).
I sure hope Samsung eventually releases a military spec Galaxy S line. I left my Casio GzOne Boulder for the Fascinate and I can honestly say, that Casio went through hell and back and still works great to this day. It’s completely shock proof, waterproof, snow proof, drop off a roof proof, all of which I did the two years I used it. I think there’s a great market for phones like these, especially with how fragile and sensitive today’s smartphones are. I went with the Galaxy S because of the gorilla glass and I can honestly say I haven’t been dissapointed. 3 months in and there’s no a single scratch on the screen and I don’t use a screen protector. The phone above looks too much like a Blackberry, so hopefully by the time my contract is up with my Fascinate, they’ll have something a little more sturdy and a lot better looking than the Motorola i886.
its on android, it has opera browser on the pic
