The Sprint Hero was another milestone for Android, and an even bigger one for HTC.  As the first CDMA Android phone, it paved the way for others like the Droid and Evo 4G.  It was also the first phone in the US to launch with the HTC Sense interface, and love it or hate it you'll have to admit it changed the game in the "look and feel" department.
