Sprint's QChat enabled handsets delayed to June 15Sprint’s QChat enabled handsets delayed to June 15? PhoneArena reported that the public release of QChat enabled handsets has been pushed back from April 20 to a June 15 along with the LG LX400 and Samsung Z400, indicating that the entire QChat service will also be delayed. It now appears that Sprint will wait to launch all four devices at once.

Sprint has said all along that the Samsung and LG would launch “later this summer,” It’s unclear if Sprint has delayed their service due to network technicalities or if they just wanted to give QChat customers more handset options with the launch of their service.
