We were going to pieces but our whore money/payola/free Sprint phone finally arrived.

These are the box contents. Wow, look at all that.

The phone itself is light. The screen is hi-rez and bright. There’s a cover over the battery charging area. It hangs on by a little rubber strap that’s pretty ingenious. An iPod-like play wheel sits on the face.

We’ll tell you what exciting things happen next.

UPDATE: We are charging it.
