The Sprint A920 phone: should you buy it, or a PDA smartphone?
We continue our battle of the phones with a review of a multimedia-equipped cellular phone, the Samsung A920 from Sprint. Over the past few months, we've reviewed the newest and hottest smartphones: the Palm Treo 700w, the Sprint PPC-6700, Verizon's variation on the theme, the XV6700, and compared them all to the venerable Treo 650. This month, we'll be looking at a few new devices, starting with the Samsung A920 phone profiled in this article, graciously provided to us by Sprint.
