@rebella Do you know or can you confirm if it's going to have the 8gb on board memory like the htc incredible or only going to have the reported 1gb?

Thanks again for everything!!
 
They said the official release date will be released in a couple of weeks, at a big event which I assume may be the May 12th event you speak of in NY. We will also hear about it in the weekly playbook soon I think.

Yeah, the original one you mentioned was 1:30 or something like that. This looks ready for primetime.

Almost ready...the phone is squished, and the movement of the phone and its splitting / reforming are pretty cheesey to my eyes. Nothing like Motorola's DROID ads, which I think are scary and scary-good.

Oh, and not to even mention the given release date--limited time free hotspot is a great idea. Builds hype, gains customers, satisfies enthusiasts, and still allows Sprint to make money in the long run. They should definitely do that, I think.

if free hotspot was a limited feature, from 3 months to even a year, i think that would definitely help sway people over an iphone. the trial might even convince some to pay for a permanent service....or even if it was a non-contracted-whenever-you-need-it type of service. hotspot-per-month sounds fair if they do so.

as long as the 4g network runs good, it'll make the evo shine even brighter.

during apple-week, i think free hotspot (even if limited-time-only) would steal back some thunder from apple.
 
I was hoping to have more and to take a picture but they wouldnt allow it. Also the kickstand seemed to be pretty strong. I have been following these posts for quite a while and followed Jackson on the Sprint Community since he seemed to know more then us. I just happened to meet with HTC today thus the update, Otherwise I was as much in the dark as you and hoping Jackson was right. Glad I could help!
 
has anyone seen this??

On solid Q1 footing, Clearwire promises two WiMAX smartphones - FierceWireless

"The company also promised to sell two Clear-branded WiMAX smartphones by the end of this year: A Samsung Android-based "3G/4G/WiFi device optimized for heavy video and video communications use," according to the company, and a 3G/4G/WiFi-enabled phone from HTC. Clearwire executives said both devices will carry the company's "Clear" WiMAX brand, and that the HTC device will be different from the WiMAX-capable, Android-based Evo 4G smartphone HTC plans to release this summer for Sprint Nextel (NASDAQ: S). Clearwire did not provide further details on the planned devices, though executives said the voice-calling service for the phones would run over Sprint's network rather than via VoIP on Clearwire's WiMAX network."




im blowing my brains out right now. I was wondering what happened to the rumored Samsung Android 4g phone from a year ago which was supposed to be the first, and the HTC device sounds like the HTC Scorpion!
