Sprint HTC Hero Close to Pre-Order?

Aug 27 2009, 11:57am CDT | by Robert Evans

The HTC Hero is one of the best smartphones on the market right now, and the only one to pack the gorgeous HTC Sense UI. We've known for a while that this Android handset was coming to the Sprint carrier and now, thanks to Boy Genius, we have a good idea as to when. They've uncovered info that could mean Hero pre-orders are just around the corner.

A leaked document from Best Buy's internal system shows a possible Hero pre-order date of September 13. The actual handset release date is not yet known, and Best Buy has been off before, but this does give us a very good picture at the likely date the Hero will come up for pre-order. If it isn't right on the 13th, it will be close to it.

Better start saving those pennies, Sprint subscribers.
