Sprint announcing Nexus S 4G, EVO 3D, and EVO View tablet at CTIA?

Is there any official word out on how much internal memory the phone will have? I am hoping for at least 8GB. I see someone posted 4GB above. I just think a phone like this would need more. But either way I think I have found my next phone.

@EarlyMon The form factor is almost identical to that of the original EVO accept for few features. The screen is mainly just touch screen. There is no room for the HTC emblem or Sprint at the top of the device, but there is still the EVOish metal grill. EVO 3D feels heavier and that could be attributed to battery. The data ports and jacks are still located at the top and bottom. The EVO 3D is more at home in landscape mode with the kickstand out. I can't go into dimensions, but it's an improvement.

@L8AGIN BGR was close but not quite. There is a twist on how things work inside and hence the lack luster/accidental posting of GLbenchmarks. It is std affair 1gig RAM and 4gig ROM, with cavet. Depending on the needs of the 2nd processor and software applications 4gig ROM will act like RAM. This takes a bit of hardware/software trickery, but it is working. Clock speeds can't discuss, but this too has proven to be OC friendly. I guess you could look at as tri-channel memory like a higher end tri channel memory configuration in a WinVista/Intel 1366DDRAM setup. 1gig RAM will stay Dual Channel, Until the need for Tri-Channel then ROM becomes RAM. So while they will be classified as 4gigs of ROM, Physically speaking there really RAM Silicon. This is a first in the industry, but saves alot on real estate this way. Hope that helps to clear that up. Good luck to a blogsite trying to describe it. It's new hear, but really cool, and pretty sensible.

I think it is so funny that a month ago everyone was talking about how lame Sprint is and way behind the competition in terms of products offered, even though the EVO was released "late" in the season last year and everyone (including me) loves their EVOs so much ;) Wow, so much to choose from...glad I sat on that upgrade I have! And yes, I will get it because the last time that line was upgraded was in 2008 (my parents' "dumbphone" line). Ohhhhh yeaaaahhhhh!
 
so lets say the evo 3D comes out on june 4th (evo release day last year). i got my evo on launch day. i am a premier customer. i would have the early upgrade right?

Doh...April 1 will signify the change in Premier status, so if you haven't been with Sprint for at least 10 years or you don't have a plan that spends more than a certain amount per month (can't remember the exact minimum plans), your full upgrade date will change to 22 months (which will add 10 months to the current upgrade date). I believe that brings you to April 2012 until you're eligible for full upgrade.

As dan said below, I'd give a call into Sprint prior to the April 1 changes, just to see if there's anything they can do to help you keep your full eligible upgrade date as of June.

Oh, if you're almost at 10 years, just email them. Initially, they thought my 10 year would be next year, so they were going to make an exception for me after I emailed them (granted, it was also through business csr). It eventually ended up being a moot point for me, after they reviewed their records because my 10 year had already gone by in 2010.

Did you mean "have a fit"?

I don't believe half of what that guy says. Not because I don't believe him but because if wrong then it's a huge disappointment to us.

Plus things are already not lining up. Like the FF cam being 3 MP and it's 1.3
 
there are a lot other things that dont line up too.. but i will reserve final judgment till full specs are released.

1. size has been said to be taller but thinner... he says different

2. he said that the og evo was worked on till the very last day of release.. but the evo was given away at the google io... over a month before release. so how did they make changes to those?

but... again... i am hopeful..

One change I do remember from Google io versions of the EVO to the retail version was the speaker grill (red for Google io version and silver for production/retail).

I dont remember that but if they did it was more likely because they wanted to set it apart from the DInc. Which has red speaker grills and camera ring.

Like I said I don't remember it having a red one.

Maybe you're right. I'm going all on memory. Maybe it was the prototypes I was thinking of, not the ones released to customers at google io.
