if the phone was cdma only they would have removed the camera, but the phone has wimax and the point of the front camera is for wimax use.

Honestly i was caught off gaurd by Verizon having something similar to the EVO coming out so soon because it came out of no where. I have a sprint TP2 and a Blackberry Storm with Verizon (work phone) an i would never leave sprint for Verizon but it just seems like Verizon is doing all they can to catch up to AT&T the Android motorolla phone was a HUGE hit an i know a lot of people who jumped ship to Verizon because of that phone an now them bringing out the Incridible an so soon its like they are going HARD at IPHONES cuz honestly if it comes out soon with some bugs it really doesnt matter cuz they already got so many ppl already locked in a new contract. they just whip out the updates and fixes .. I have no idea why Sprint wants to be so Hoo Hmm with their phones The EVO is such a big deal that if it were to drop tomorrow i know people would be sleeping outside of the Sprint stores now! Just seems like Sprint is ok with always being in 3rd place in the Cell phone war.

Man, that was one big paragraph!

If the Evo qualifies for 3rd place, then heck, I will be pretty happy with the bronze!

4G/Wimax can do voice AND data.

Yeah, that'd definitely be nice. To this day, I don't understand why more people don't have Sprint. Everywhere I've lived in the past 10 years of my life, Sprint's service area and 3G coverage (when applicable) have been better than Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mo (no competition there). Not only that, their data & voice plans are what, like 60% of the cost of the competition's?

I'm guessing it has to be the phone selection. If Sprint had the iPhone, I don't think AT&T would be doing very well. If Sprint had the enV dumb phone and the Droid, Verizon wouldn't be as great either. Sprint does have some good phones, but they don't have the "popular" ones. The Evo is going to be the first popular phone (IMO) that they've ever had. The Palm Pre could have been that device, but shitty advertising from Palm probably had something to do with that failure.

i also think sprint suffers from bad reputation from the past. i'd had sprint for quite a long time now, too and i honestly have nothing but good things to say about them.

Well i will say that there are some places where Sprint coverage lacks south of Atlanta.. but as others have said the main reason is reputation. That and the fact that customer service, even though it has drastically improved... absolutely SUCKS.
