Sprint unveils new commercial featuring the HTC Hero
November 18, 2009 | by Robert Nelson
It is kind of nice to see Android, or at least Android phones getting the spotlight in television commercials. The latest carrier to feature and Android phone is Sprint with the HTC Hero.
And unlike the slightly strange Droid commercials from Verizon, the Sprint commercial seems a little more down to earth mentioning the “customizable HTC Hero with Google.” I like how they tossed in the “with Google” to make it seem more appealing. They also mention that there are lots of available apps.
Additionally that same commercial also highlighted the Palm Pre and BlackBerry Tour which were described as being able to run “multiple apps” and offering the ability to “call from anywhere” respectively.

BestBuy just droped thier price on the Hero to $99.99 for New Sprint customers – this is an $80 price drop from when I bought it. You can get it on BestBuy.com and it includes free shipping. The price for Current Sprint customers is $179.99.

First of all I’d like to say, awesome article! I’ve got a little question bothering me, I really enjoy the design of your blog and tried to install the same design on my WP website. Anyhow, there is some kind of weird php error in the footer. Do you have any hints, what settings are you using? Please PM me on Twitter @LovnLivin or per e-mail.
