sprintkrzr.jpgSprint just announced that they're bringing a trio of hot Motorola handsets into their fold: The Motorola RAZR V3m, SLVR L7c and KRZR K1m. The RAZR and KRZR are already out with Verizon Wireless, but Sprint's models will offer a different interface, Sprint's live TV service and their new pay-per-view movie application.

The announcement makes Sprint the first carrier to officially adopt the SLVR L7c, the new version of Cingular's SLVR L7. The L7c will use Sprint's Music Store rather than iTunes, and have high-speed EV-DO data, Sprint TV and Sprint Movies. But it will otherwise be much like the existing SLVR, with its VGA camera, Bluetooth and MicroSD memory card slot.

Sprint's Michelle Leff said she expected prices to be "incredibly competitive." Verizon is selling the KRZR for $199 with contract, and has sold the RAZR for as little as $69 with contract during special promotions. Leff said the phones will feature a customized Sprint user interface, be usable as laptop modems, and have a wide range of Bluetooth wireless profiles for connection to PCs.

The new phones are expected in early November, or sooner if they pass Sprint's testing quickly. Read more on Sprint's site or sign up for alerts when the KRZR becomes available.

I mean, color me jaded and all, but I'm a Verizon customer dying for the ability to use bluetooth, or heck, USB, to connect my RAZR to my computer. :( I hope Sprint's policies on such connections are a bit more lax.
