Eieio, can you explain how an Evo release with iPhone " toe to toe" is possibly realistic. I realize you are an engineer and you posts are invaluable here, but cmon sir we are not in Disney.

There are reports that new iPhone is ready for mid June release with new 4.0 software. I can't remember if it was self praise or not but they were absolutely correct in claiming apple would swallow the evo worm.

Just my 2

If you click on the link I provided it should take you directly to the photo of the EVO with its exposed backside. (no jokes please).
If you click on the photo it zooms in and you can clearly see in the depressed black section of the back the number PC36100.

Now, I truly believe the phone has passed the FCC, but probably has a note saying not to release the documents until a certain date. Or it could have gone through using another Grantee Code other than the one for HTC (NM8).

When I clicked on the link, it went straight to this pic:

I tried to click on the pic thumbnails below this one, but the website just kept showing this pic, no matter which one I clicked on.

hmmm okay, scroll down that page and you should see a few images with the red back exposed. The first on click on it and then click on it again to zoom in.

yup. did that too. That's what I'm saying, I see the thumbnails of the pics on that page, but for whatever reason no matter which pic I click on, the same pic shows on the page.

I'm gonna paste into different browser to see if it makes a difference.
 
Sorry river. I could not remember your earlier post.

You are absolutely correct. I really believe apple will announce iPhone availability in second week of June as a response to Evo. And it will be devastating to sprint.

You have to understand public sentiment. It's not just the phone or the specs; It's the publics unfamiliarity with the Carrier....Sprint. There are 2 hurdles here, and I believe apple has moved it up 3 weeks so as to extinguish any media sprint might gain.

Verizon has another piece of the pie with the incredible. A trusted network.

So sprint is facing a long may...........

Dude, I know. She has the lotus and wants a physical keyboard and does not want to get used to a touchscreen keyboard. She does not like the BB's so the moment is the only choice. This is a small step in the right direction for her.

ah, see? it MUST be ready to go now! i say just sell 'em in May! we can get the update when it's ready....

or just give us a definite releasedate. i think at least having a definite release date would satisfy many.

What's so bad about Disney World? I'm going AGAIN in June and I can't wait! I'm also hoping to have my EVO in hand when I get there!

Amusingly, depending on when the Evo drops, I may be down at WDW myself, and thus unable to get it on launch day! I'll be there from June 5-12. Hope it drops earlier... would love to have it for the trip!
 
With all of this apple stuff, and this is pure specualtion so please take it with a grain of salt, it would be very mart of Sprint to move up the release date. Everything is tentative to this point. The phone is finished and they are being produced at crazy fats speeds, this is a fact. They just have to be shipped to store locations, this too is a fact. So if Sprint really wanted to they could bump up the release dat by a week or two. Nothing is really holding them back (opinion)

My wife is the same way, she has a dumb phone now, but she wants a physical keyboard. She doesn't like my Iphone (neither do I), she says the virtual keyboard is wierd. I am going to get her a moment when I get my EVO.
 
Hey, what happened to that one poster that showed the radio shack inventory screen. Haven't seen that person post in a while.

If Apple moves up their launch date and drops the Phone early, you think they did this because??

Because of Rivers Tyson analogy. Lol. Wow.

You must admit the marketing will be overwhelming. And all the little apple families and fans will run to apple stores with the genius and buy 3 iPhones like drones and timeshares at Disney.

4g? What's that? It's the new 4 g iPhone of course.

Sprint if you watching, release in may.
