Is there still any lingering doubt that something big’s getting cooked up in Overland Park in time for October 2nd? We’ve already seen leaked screenshots showing that Sprint’s aiming to launch its CDMA-based Direct Connect service that day, in addition to a Sprint-backed vid of the Motorola Admiral , the primary smartphone to sport the hot feature. Courtesy of SprintFeed, another gem was unearthed: the Direct Connect -compatible Kyocera Duramax. Said to begin at $100 with a two-year agreement, the rugged clamshell bears significant amounts of resemblance to a great number of legacy iDEN handsets. It’s nothing to put in writing home about, but it surely still sports the precise military specs to maintain it protected, in addition to a three megapixel camera and a non-slip surface. Anyone who isn’t searching for a smartphone but is short of a right away Connect device may want to keep a detailed eye in this one as we catch up with to the day of destiny. Oh, and Sprint? The cat’s out of the bag — perhaps it is time to make it real.
