Sprint Mogul is manufactured by HTC. I don't like the reviews of it
from phonescoop, cnet, etc. Here's a quote from CNet:
"The good: The Sprint Mogul by HTC runs the latest Windows Mobile 6, has
more memory included, and has a thinner design. It also boasts Bluetooth,
Wi-Fi, and EV-DO support as well as a 2-megapixel camera. Sprint will also
offer an over-the-air update post-launch that gives you access to the Sprint
Music Store.

The bad: Some elements of the Mogul's hardware as well as speakerphone
volume and quality is sub-par. A slower processor and limited program memory
can sometimes slow down performance.

The bottom line: The Sprint Mogul by HTC brings some needed design and
feature updates to its predecessor, and refreshes the carrier's staid lineup
of smartphones. It has some performance issues, but is worth the upgrade.

Specs: OS provided: Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.0 Professional; Installed
RAM: 64 MB; Processor: QUALCOMM 400 MHzMSM7500 "
