1 - Release is still scheduled for mid June, and the advocates get the phone in 2 weeks when Advocate training starts. NOBODY outside of Sprint beta testers has this phone right now, I don't care what you read in some random forum.

2 - This is NOT a world phone. No SIM, strictly a CDMA 1x/EVDO Rev A chip, alongside a Wimax chip.

3 - You CAN do data and voice simultaneously but only in 4G areas. Reports are conflicting right now, I'll be able to get further proof in a few days time. As of right now, I was told (beta testers and engineers) that voice will come over the CDMA chip, and data over the Wimax. Of course, we've all heard the Wimax data/VOIP rumors by now. I WILL clear this up shortly.

4 - Appearing in a store in Florida: False. Not sure if the blurry photo was part of a practical joke involving an HD2, but it certainly wasn't an Evo.

5 - The device will ship with 2.1 Eclair, Froyo will be released, but of course no date is set. I figure maybe 6 months as a GUESS, no hard facts to back it up though.

Anything else that I missed?

1. FALSE seen one in person dont care what you say but did see one did play with one did love it and an advocate did have it you may think you know it all but obviously you dont
