Sprint to launch first WiMAX handset in Q1 2010, must be Supersonic

In an interview with Forbes magazine, Sprint revealed that its first 4G handset would be available in Q1 2010. Paget Alves, Sprint’s president of Business Markets, confirmed the existence of such device and pointed out that the smartphone would target businesses and government agencies as well as regular consumers. He declined to leak more info on the handset itself, but we have a pretty shrewd idea that it’s the HTC A9292 WiMAX bar that was spotted in Sprint’s inventory earlier this year. The actual prodcut is believed to be the HTC Supersonic, an Android-rocking Snapdragon-rolling, totally awesome, cool-looking handset, which was photographed and rendered in January. Anyone planning to get their first 4G phone when this comes out?
