LOL that's funny!!! Guess we need some humor after all the bad news I've delivered today. But, gosh, you guys are hurting my feelings!! :eek:

Edit: I take a lot of time and pride in my posts making sure the spelling, punctuation, grammar are as good as I can get it, and that's what makes this funny. I appreciate being ribbed for suggesting a later release date, but my feelings are still hurt, *sob* :)
 
Mrk and Bendispo, please refer to my post from last night. 1 page back.

I did, and I understand the dates involved. In any case, I haven't read this page yet--I need to go eat, actually :\.

They would probably be more interested in the Incredible thread.

Well people here said they would be interested in me doing an overview/review once I get mine.

The people over there have all they already need, and I don't feel the need to add something there that will just get overlooked by the 50+ new threads every hour.

I will post a thread and if people are interested in checking it out, they can. But I won't post anything in this thread regarding it.

I'm only doing it because there will be many common things between the Incredible and the EVO i.e software, camera etc.

Yeah, that would be good. Anything regarding that other phone should probably go into a different thread. I would like this to continue to be the EVO 4G thread and for the most part everyone has been doing a good job of that.

Let me take this opportunity to thank you Autosuggestion and everyone else for their input. I've learned a lot from you guys, so THANK YOU!! :D
 
i think that Sprint should launch the first supply of the EVOs in the northeast first, then the west coast, and then you hillbillies in the south and in flyover country can have whatever is left. what's right is right.
 
I seriously think either there is something to this or all the chat reps sat around the break room and decided "hey, lets eff with the forum geeks"

Too bad those guys are so misinformed.

Edit: Wasn't it more fun talking about a "summer" release date?

I really want a May release but these reps usually know nothing! I hope he is right though. I was wondering since the Evo seems to be tied in with Disney and the Prince of Persia movie wouldn't it be smart to release the phone on or before the movie release? The Prince of Persia comes out May 28th by the way, :)
 
I remember last year someone got a rep to tell them it would be out in late april by basically "talking them into telling them that" wonder if anyone done that yet.

Maybe you should start a poll.

I might take you up on that..

I think the up and coming cities for 4g roll out is grossly understated.

I think they are more areas that 4g service will be available in sooner than later..

I think Sprint is down playing its wimax roll out.. But that is a good thing to under promise and over deliver.
 
The people who think the Evo is a beefier Incredible are flat out wrong. The Incredible is the HTC Desire (which to this point is Europe only) that was slightly retooled with a bigger camera and slightly bigger memory. The Evo if anything is more closely tied to the HD2, but even then that's more because of screen size than anything else. From what I've read though the Evo/Supersonic has been in the works since 2008, so its not as easy as just slapping the HD'2 screen into an Incredible like some people are insinuating.

I think so too. I believe they're working feverishly to have as much WiMAX coverage as possible before the EVO 4G is released. That's another reason I think the phone may be released later than sooner.

I agree. When the EVO is released, the Incredible won't even come close. My guess is a lot of people buying that phone will be switching to the Sprint for their WiMAX service and the EVO 4G. In fact, I think Sprint will be getting a lot of their customers back.

Stressing a later release date hasn't made me very popular today, but I knew it wouldn't. I just thought something had to be said to those pushing for a "May" release.
Click to expand...
Bill know disrespect. But I am not pushing for a "May" release. I was telling everyone what the sprint manager told me at the sprint store yesterday. It would be nice for a May release,but like you I also want all the bugs and kinks worked out before getting the evo
