 If we had a dime for every time Sprint CEO Dan Hesse (or spectrum partner Clearwire) has talked about a possible migration to LTE , we’d have… well, at least several dimes.

 Wait, didn’t they try this already ? Looks like Sprint is gearing up to take another shot at its seemingly unsinkable (but aging) iDEN push-to-talk network that it inherited from its Nextel acquisition — which is a good thing seeing how it’s only signed up for another three years’ worth of maintenance . The new so-called Sprint Direct Connect service is slated to launch in the fourth quarter of this year using CDMA underpinnings, a throwback to the QChat-based push-to-talk network that Sprint launched back in 2008 but never gained traction. . . . → Read More: Sprint Direct Connect will replace iDEN with CDMA, launch late this year

 With all four of America’s largest operators cranking the 4G marketing machine to 11, you’ve got to wonder who can actually deliver the goods and who is just throwing money away on ads that could be better spent on actually, you know, delivering 4G? The folks at PC World , in conjunction with Novarum, have performed extensive testing across 13 major American cities using various smartphones and USB modems and the results speak for themselves. When it comes to who has the fastest modems, Verizon cleans the floor. . . . → Read More: Who has the fastest 4G network in America? It all depends on if you’re using a USB modem or smartphone!

 Last month we saw Sprint, along with the help of Magician David Blaine, unveil a “world’s first” : a dual-screen Android device known as the Kyocera Echo. It raised more eyebrows than it did applause because it seemed like the last thing the world was yearning for is a dual-screen Android device. . . . → Read More: Kyocera Echo for Sprint coming April 17 for $199

 Hey, that’s just $100 per screen, right? Sprint has just announced that Kyocera’s unusual dual-display Echo clamshell will be launching on April 17th for $199.99 on contract, though you’ll be able to notch your interest early — March 26th, to be exact — via pre-order. As a refresher, the phone offers a 5 megapixel cam with 720p video capture, 1GB of onboard storage augmented with an in-box 8GB microSD card (expandable to 32GB), Android 2.2, and — of course — a pair of 3.5-inch WVGA displays that should set it apart from the crowd . . . → Read More: Kyocera Echo hits Sprint on April 17th for $200

 Did last week’s rumors of a T-Mobile merger with Sprint leave you wondering what color you’d get if you mixed magenta with yellow?
