Mobile Phones HTC Touch Pro Del

Click to ZoomYou may have caught wind of an October 19th release date for the HTC Touch Pro on Sprint, but that date is not going to hold up. While they have yet to announce a new launch date for the QWERTY-packing smartphone, it most certainly won't be arriving this coming Monday.

The Sprint representative said that this is only going to be a slight delay and it's largely to ensure that the CDMA provider has "adequate inventory" to satisfy the needs of its customers. As it stands, they are looking toward a late October retail launch, followed by an early November launch online.

This means that the Windows Mobile smartphone from HTC will still be here in time for the holidays, so at least you'll have something to occupy yourself during dinner at grandma's house.

Windows Mobile 6.1 Pushed to Samsung Ace

This QWERTY smartphone certainly shares some DNA with some of its Samsung brethren and now it's going to join the Windows Mobile 6.1 party as well. When you first purchased the Samsung Ace from Sprint, it was only loaded with Windows Mobile 6.0. You can now push that dated operating system aside.

The Windows Mobile 6.1 update for the Ace brings about a series of bug fixes and it makes the device "more stable than ever." The new firmware update also brings about a completely unlocking of the integrated GPS chip found inside, so you can now use that functionality to find your way around town. No more excuses for getting lost, because you have access to Sprint Navigator or your choice of a third-party app.

The Samsung Ace firmware update can be found through the Samsung Mobile website.
