New Motorola Android Phones Coming to Sprint, TMo

Two new Motorola phones will be heading to market in the not-too-distant future, one to Sprint and one to T-Mobile.
Sprint announced just today that they'll be making the Motorola i1 available on July 25 (via direct shipping, business, and phone channels - August 8th everywhere else) for just $149 after rebate, and assuming you're renewing or starting a new contract.
The i1 is the first Android push-to-talk device to hit the market, and includes most of the basic features we've come to expect in a smart phone, including WiFi and a 5 MP camera. Sprint also claims that the i1's solid body construction meets military specs to protect the phone from vibration, shock, dust and light rain.
The major downside? It's shipping with Android 1.5, which is completely absurd at this point, sorry Sprint. Let's hope for a fast update.
As for the T-Mobile offering, TmoNews has obtained a screenshot that has the Motorola Charm listed as launching on August 25th, confirming that despite initial delays, the Charm will, in fact become available soon.
The Charm is a candy bar style phone with full qwerty keyboard, and ships with a 600 mhz processor, 512 MB of RAM and ROM, a 2.8" screen, backtrack navigation, a 3 MP camera, Adobe Flash, and MOTOBLUR. The best part? It ships with Android 2.1 (take THAT Sprint), and rumors have it priced at only $74.99 with a 2 year contract, or $269.99 for an outright purchase.
