cool. i'd caution anyone about relying on any release dates. even assuming this came from cricket originally, we hopefully all know by now the only thing indicating a phone is really released is when the fedex man brings them to the stores, and even then they might not be released.
utstarcom mini is cdm-8935. very very small flip camera phone (possibly smallest camera phone ever on cdma.)
wth is an r610. i don't think you meant a610 (very old and discontinued camera phone)? i can't find anything on google and your picture link is broken. i did find some references to it on samsung's webite, but nothing with pictures.
i'm also guessing that the hines ward branded v3a will be exclusive to pitsburgh (and ebay)...
