    Why is it only 1 mbps? I don't get that! Vimeo re-encodes at 2 mbps for HD. You should have uploaded the file DIRECTLY out of the phone to Vimeo, not re-encode it to VGA or something.

    @Eugenia: Uh, that's about what it output. It had to be transcoded because however it's encoded, nothing but VLC will play it straight out of the phone.

    What they need is replacements for the customers they're bleeding.


    Phones alone won't do that.

    @iamholland: "...probably not enough to save Sprint."


    I pray daily that Sprint NOT go under, as I do likewise for Verizon, T-Mobile, etc. I mean, can you imagine how hellish our world would be if ATT were our only choice?

    Long live competition!

    Just what I didn't ask for. The ability to touch an android all over. Again and again.

    Does anyone know how to access Opera from the Instinct once installed? As in, I launched it after installation, then I put my phone down and now I don't know how to get back into it.

    Best part compared to built in browser: a quarter of the screen isn't taken up all the time by buttons.


    Worst part: dragging seems really choppy and slow

    In reply to Opera Mini 4.2 Now Available for Sprint Instinct
    You know if I did not have to pay the stupid cancellation fees for Sprint, I would have the Instinct. I have 3 phones on one account and to cancel I would have to pay $600 for all 3 lines($200 per line). The new prorating is only for new accounts and I have been with Sprint for like a year.
