Obviously you know where this is heading..

So I have had nothing but problems with my HTC TP and TP2 over the past 2 or 3 years and have said to myself enough is enough with HTC.

I have read most of the issues you guys are having with the Evo and well, I was going to pull the trigger, decided not too, saw the iPhone 4 demo last week and now am about to enbark down the dreaded road of AT&T.

Anyways.. would you of done the same in purchasing the EVO after now seeing the issues after 1 week or so of release of the EVO? Just interested to hear your thought!

That's part of being an early adopter. Early adopters get stuck with all the issues. Everybody should know this by now. This is why we make use of warranties and insurance. Everybody should know those exist by now as well. I don't see why everybody makes such a big deal about it.

These things get ironed out eventually most of the time, and everybody goes home happy. To those who don't, they're just expecting a 100% perfect phone, and to those people, I say they live in a fantasy life. I personally cannot stand people who are jaded to the point they don't realize it doesn't matter how much money you put into something, there's bound to be issues.

Technology isn't perfect, and if people can't realize that, then they shouldn't be buying it, or wait to buy it till people report that the major issues and bugs are gone.

I'm happy with my Evo. It will remain by my side as my main device till the next huge thing hits Sprint. The next phone I buy, however, may (probably not, but may be) be be the Samsung Galaxy S Pro, JUST for the simple fact that I need to replace the Palm Treo on my 2nd line. So it'd just be fitting to have another awesome Android device on my 2nd line, right? ^_^
