HTC Hero now on sale on Sprint: Palm Pre or HTC Hero?
The HTC Hero has officially launched on Sprint today, the first Google Android-powered smartphone on the carrier and the first on a carrier other than T-Mobile.
Reviewers have been keen on the device, and some have said it’s the best Android phone to date. (You can read ZDNet mobile guru Matthew Miller’s take in a full review here.)
The device is priced at $179 ($479 off-contract), a bit more pricey than its stablemate the Palm Pre.
Which begs the question: Palm Pre or HTC Hero?
