Great news folks! The HTC Hero is now available in the US. Although it comes without its famous chin, this is the best Android smartphone in the world. So far the Android devices were available only at T-Mobile, and it’s good that we have a second carrier which offers Google’s OS. HTC Hero is available to all Sprint customers who are willing to pay $179.99 with a two-year agreement, or $479 without commitment.

On the HTC Hero page Sprint has taken time to talk about the Samsung Moment, another Android smartphone that is hitting the store shelves next month. The month of the smartphones brought to us a lot of interesting handsets and OS updates like the HTC Hero, HTC Pure, HTC Imagio, Samsung Intrepid, and WinMo 6.5, while others are coming soon including BlackBerry Storm 2, HTC Tilt 2, and Nokia N900.

There are lots of choices available to you. Sprint, T-Mobile, AT&T or Verizon are offering good smartphones and all of them are going to release even better handsets soon. I can’t wait to get rid of my BlackBerry Storm, but I’m considering my options and will wait a few more weeks to see what suits me.
