First, let me say I always find it rewarding when I can bring about such discourse.
Second, if I remember correctly, is did mention that it's the limitation of the CDMA network that simuktaneous voice and data are not possible. . But, by proxy, the Pre on Sprint is incapable.
Third, for those who focused on the age of the article, and that I'm just figuring this out now... Actually, I've known for some time that I could never seem to get voice and data to work together. When I need to talk on the phone while using my GPS, I I figured out that I couldn't. Same with looking something up for someone while on the phone with them. But, I always attributed this to glitchiness of a first run device.
Fourth, In speaking to the author of this response... Right or wrong, what I have always found facinating about user groups, is peoples willingness to address total strangers so bluntly and rudely, with name calling and deliberately prevocative language, while hiding behind the anonymity of a user group. This is not the way civilized people would address perfect strangers in a face-to-face discussion, and as we have seen from the relatively recent "town hall" meetings that have been in the news, it can lead to less than civilized responses. If you wish to correct me sir (or madame), I will thank you to do so in a more polite fashion, as if we were face-to-face. To call someone ignorant is deliberately inciteful and insulting, no matter how you preface it.
I thank the group for it's indulgence and will continue, I hope, to enjoy reading your responses.

"Android can do it" is frankly an ignorant statement because Android is an operating system... yes, technically "Android" can do it, but only if the underlying network technology (UMTS/HSPA) supports it. CDMA Android handsets cannot do it.
As for the Pre being rushed and cobbled together... what does this have to do with that? There is no production CDMA phone on the planet that can do this. So why single out the Pre? GSM Pre's are more than capable of doing this.
Please take five minutes to understand what's going on before you start spouting garbage in public.
