Okay, stand back people cause, well, let me just explain...

I'm getting ready for my trip so I go Radio Shack to pick up some voltage converters and it dawn on me, that they should have the HD2 so I go check it out. OMFG Its freaking awesome. Big screen, feels really good in my hands, skinny, a bit wide but just perfect considering the screen.
I freaking love it. If this is what an EVO feels like, I couldn't ask for anything more. WOW.

ITS FREAKING AWESOME...

I just can't wait for the EVO.

You sir are correct. You win a balloon.
I've been in a couple of times to do the same thing.:D
 
Haha TS exactly how I felt while holding the HD2. I was at my mom's hair salon getting a haircut(I'm a dude and she cuts my hair for free lol) and this girl there had the HD2. I wanted to ask her so badly to play with it but I didn't want to be rude. That phone gets me so hyped up over the EVO. This display is just simply amazing.

LOL...Don't worry, you're not in that boat alone. When I first started to learn about Android (after learning of the EVO), I asked what Froyo was and got some REAL technical answers as if I was already familiar with Android. That's when I read a post on these forums that clarified Google's approach for naming their updates after desserts.
 
Anybody see this at TheStreet.com?

"Next month -- May 12 to put a date on it -- Sprint(S) will launch the HTC EVO, a WiMax 4G phone that has the same 8-megapixel camera as the Incredible."

Verizon Incredible Camera Improves the Picture | Tech Innovations | Financial Articles & Investing News | TheStreet.com

Do they know something we don't??? [Just asking - I'm assuming they got misinformed or are referring to the May 12 event. Also - the article is from today, so it seems they're not quite aware that it is already May, and next month would be June...]

Carry on...
 
Oh boy. TS is barely out the door and we're at it again...:rolleyes:

I have not switched my podcast listening to my Hero but I will for the EVO. Is there a "best" all-in-one media player that everyone recommends for audio podcasts as well as movies?

I've been saying i would go, but never got a chance until today. I almost had a tear in my eye, but didn't want to look so wimpy next to my buddies. lol

If they have any sense, then there would be no shame! You can't help but be in awe of the beauty and amazingness!
 
Okay...on a lighter note...I still haven't had anyone step forward and tell me how to get a nice android guy with his tongue hanging out...and onto my profile. Okay...on to an even lighter note....I think Sprint obviously gave this phone it's name for a reason...part of which would definitely have to be marketing....correct? So...I'm thinking...it's really short for Evolution and this is the way they will go with their media blitz. DUH...I know...not exactly a revelation...but I'm just saying...this looks to be the way they are going. Reminds me of how the Mitsubishi Lancer EVO is named....and that's one fast car! :) So...onto the lightest note yet....my vision of an ad would involve the letters flickering in and out...kind of like when an analog tv station...flickers in a horror flick...like i....I think it was named "The Ring"....anyway...my vision is for it to flicker in a more modern way...with a high current electrical sounds..buzz buzz....the letters EVO 4G....change to EVOLUTION...then EVOLVE.....then the VE drops....then it reverses to love...then back to EVOLUTION....and final....hard bass sound...EVO 4G! Cut....that's a rap! Badumpum pssh!

For some reason I was just thinking about using the touchscreen, and realized that something that gets on my nerves might actually be a good thing now. My job requires me to handle steel, auto-locking carabiners hundreds of times a day, which dries the hell out of my hands. Maybe my future Evo's screen won't be as smudged due to this?

It's a variation on one they have already published. Their video editor/transcoder needs to be shot or at least given a lesson in video transcoding and scaling.

regarding this video -

1. anyone notice the red earpiece?
2. what are the two hispanic gals in the video doing? holding a wired microphone and talking into it? WTF?
