I get 25% on the same plan w/3 lines with my company. But even though you get the discount, if you want to be on the pre-order list for earlier order than the general public and S|P customers then you should do that. I would call instead of waiting for them to contact you, but that is just me.

Might have to do that. How much earlier do they tend to sell theirs?

Also I am jealous of your 25% discount but happy to get one at all. My employer never told me about it. I only saw flyers for TMo and Verizon discounts but one day last year I remember putting my email in and lo and behold...14% discount.

I just googled PC36100 which is the EVO and went to this link which is a Flickr page of over 100 photos taken by an EVO between 3/24 and 4/27. Flickr: fly_mrs' Photostream

Hah I did that a while ago and found some dude's photos on Picasa. I made some comment like "playing with your evo 4g?" and he misinterpreted it to mean that I had his evo test unit. He freaked out and had me call him up but I called him and explained that I was just poking around for bits of info and didn't have his phone.
 
I HATE THIS!!!!!!!!!!

I am sitting here waiting on the Evo and my GFs Incredible is sitting on the desk next to me, charging up for the first time.

She is going to come home tonight and have so much fun! ARGH! I am so stupidly jealous. I talked her into this, rather than waiting for an iPhone. Got her off AT&T and into Android. We did not want her on Sprint though, because we like having two different networks, to give us a better chance of having a signal between us, when travelling.

sigh! whine! itching fingers!!! I wana play with it!

You should have added her to your plan. Save some money and show you can commit :D Anyway Sprint roams free on Verizon so you would still have a signal. I brought my girl over from Verizon and her share of our bill is less than she was paying for a single flip phone on Verizon with just voice and some text.

I think it was riverofice that said it would not have froyo.
ROI has a test unit.

Edit: ROI sorry if it was not you that said that.

Sorry I do not have a unit. What I know is that it will release with 2.2.

I am 99% sure it went through the fcc already.

You can look up the codes your self.
Found the what I assume to be The Legend, while looking around. Notice the 802.11n rating. Nice.

If you want to search for the phone your self. Here is how.

Go here. https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/GenericSearch.cfm

Type in Grantee Code: "nm8"

Skip down to Freguency Range in Mhz: "2501" to "7000" Un-check exact match.
Then down to bottom, change 10 records to like 500
If they post a wimax phone from htc, it will show up.
 
You guys don't think the EVO is boxed up and already to ship? Why do you guys think they are still working on the phone?

He is saying that it is *not* ready to ship. The hardware is finalized and they are still tweaking the performance of the software. Lots of customizations to the OS for this phone and they need to make sure it is seamless if they want to avoid negative reviews on launch.
 
Order placed for the ZAGG Shield, front only. Oh how I love 50% discount codes :)

I'll let you all know if I get it and all the details.
 
Hey community, wow you have all been talking it up today.

I ordered my Evo screen protector two days ago, I'll post some pictures of it compared to my instinct S30 when i recieve it.

Yeah, so nothing really new. Just May 12th is going to be great. What i said a few days ago SP backed up, which is always nice. Nothing but a release date and some talked about features will go down in NY. It still will be a great night for Sprint customers. Sprint now has exclusive deals with some of the most important companies in the COunrty.

Disney. Noone can beat Disney. I'll never forget when we went there to buy a time share and the sales person was talking about trading them and what not. What he said about Disney stuck with me ever since though. He talked about how owning a disney property is like having Gold in your pocket, everyone always wants it. Good for Sprint, I think it is a great move for them and will play right into their role, the happiest place on Earth.

They are also, cough cough, soon to be official sponsors with ESPN. I was watching the show Sports Center a few mornings ago before i had classes and a guest came on wearing a Sprint polo. He was a former football pro athlete, but his name escapes me right now. I just thought it was interesting to see, he had it on for no particular reason, perhaps some foreshadowing? I guess we'll see in the coming weeks. I mean nothing NOTHING would be better to watch EPSN 360 on then the HTC Evo. Seriously that would be awesome!

Walmart. Woah if this is not the trifecta icing on top of the cake! The other two give them great names which allow them to penetrate their message to customers on opposite ends of the spectrum. What walmart allow them to do is take up some serious nationwide space. I 4G network database takes up the size of a file cabinet. Nothing bigger than that. Also walmart would benefit greatly from having these on site because they would have free internet access, along with VOIP phone calling, thats saving them 2 MAJOR BILLS!!! With the relationship the limits are infinite it this will surely put sprint on top, as the entire country will be "glazed" with 4G.

It is seldom that we really look at Sprint and appreciate what they are doing to better us and our service, as they have not always looked out the best for us. Dan, my boy Hesse, has really done a wonderful job with setting Sprint up to be America's top wireless provider, and constant largest 4G provider. Thanks for everything if you are reading this Mr. Hesse, all of us here are awaiting the months to come to see the magic that is about to unfold.

Glad to see accessories coming out for the EVO, personally, not sure if I am going to use a screen protector if the screen is that scratch resistant.

If I do, it'll be a BSE or an SGP protector.
