After many months of needless equivocation, Sprint has finally decided to carry Sony Ericsson’s T608 cellphone, which will be the first phone available from them that comes with built-in Bluetooth. As we’ve mentioned before, one of the reasons for the delay is that Sony Ericsson quit making CDMA handsets for the North American market, but we suspect there was also some concern about people taking advantage of Sprint’s PCS Vision flat rate unlimited high-speed data plan and using the Bluetooth-enabled T608 as a wireless modem for a laptop. To solve that problem, they’re not going to offer flat rate PCS Vision plans for the phone, something which will surely disappoint more than a few people who have been waiting for the T608. If you still want one, you should act fast, as there are only a limited number available.
