<br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes. They are identical except for the Radio they use. One has a radio for the WIND band, and gets updates sooner than the AT&T band. For example, there's a test build of Froyo (Android 2.2) floating around for the AWS version but not for the RoBelUs version. If you were to flash a Passion firmware on a Passion-A, best case scenario would be the phone failing to work, and worse case would be bricking your device because you put the wrong baseband radio on the phone. (Note: I've never done this, and don't plan on experimenting. While developing phones for Android makes getting phones cheap, these phones are expensive to replace.)</div>
<div> </div><div>So, are you using it purely for development, or are you planning on making it your phone as well? That is the deciding factor at the end of the day.</div><div><br></div><div>Joe</div></div>
