If you’re using an HTC Touch or Mogul from Sprint and the launch of the iPhone 3G has got you thinking you’re using yesterday’s handset, an announcement today could put a smile on your face. Sprint has announced a free software update for the HTC Touch handset that brings EV-DO Rev. A mobile broadband to the smartphone, along with enhanced GPS capabilities, the mobile version of the Opera Web browser, and an onscreen 40-key QWERTY keyboard that offers an additional option for responding to messaging and entering other data. HTC Mogul users get access to the Sprint TV wireless video-on-demand service…and both the Touch and Mogul get a bump to Windows Mobile 6.1.

Sprint Launches Mogul Smartphone
Mobile operator Sprint today officially launched its Mogul smartphone, offering Windows Mobile 6 Professional Edition, a sizable touchscreen, a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, an integrated camera, integrated Wi-Fi, and decent battery life. The Mogul is made for Sprint by HTC and marks a rare occasion HTC has ventured into the realm of CDMA devices, though there’s a bit of a catch—for now, the phone only offers EV-DO Rev 0 data speeds, with support for EV-DO Rev A coming later by way of a software update.
