I adapt & overcome the prevailing market conditions as a consumer.
As a consumer, I had other choices, wether 4G or not when the EVO came out.
So it's on me whether I lathered up for the EVO or not at that time.
Esp. when Verizon had droid choices & SPCS's own 4G network was not up to snuff.
I see too many people trying to be business critics base on misguided persona phone wants & forgetting where they are in the food chain.

The thread is about the "death of wimax" last I checked >.>...the mistake sprint made was obvious as HTC ALWAYS had supply issues..you have to remember that the invested BILLIONS into wimax...I'm not saying sprint should not have released the EVO or etc.I'm saying that if you got billions at stake and your entire company..you should make sure your suppliers can keep up with the demand, if not, get suppliers that can. If they chose to release 2 4g phones instead of one..it would have spread the demand in between the 2 phones...but instead they were too focused on the iphone rather then ding whats best for their business.
