After more than six months of the first announcement, Sprint is now offering the Sony Ericsson T608, a CDMA phone with Bluetooth built in.

According to a Sprint statement published on Sprinc PCS Info, Sprint announced that it will sell a limited quantity of the sony Ericsson T608 beginning the week of 22 December 2003. The phone will sell for US$199.99, and can be purchased through 1-866-PCS-AUTO. PCS Vision is available for $15 per month and gives the T608 3MB of data usage. The T608 is not available with Sprint service plans providing Unlimited PCS Vision access (at this point I wonder why mobile operators still think like this).
