Re: EPIC 4G (EV) Compatibility?

EV on TP2 stands for EVDO and it is a form of 3G for CDMA....right now there are 2 types used by sprint..Rev 0 and Rev A..with Rev A being the faster of the 2...Epic supports both...and at same time supports 4G which is even faster then EVDO as long as its in your area.

Most definitely! I was leaning towards the EVO until a friend of mine shoved his epic in my face, haha. I was very impressed with the phone. Hence, the reason why I need to clarify the compatibility. The only drawback for me was: the phone (not the screen) feels easily breakable. Will need to find a good cover.
Epic > EVO in build quality..but a case could not hurt

I heard the "sero" plan is no longer issuable or upgradable? I might be moving abroad in the near future, hence, I'm trying to avoid any contract renewals.

Thanks for the reply's, much appreciated guys.
As of oct 1st there was an addon called "SERO PREMIUM" and for $10 extra a month gives you same benefits as a regular everything data plan.

And if your moving somewhere else..and plan to use the phone they must support CDMA and allow the device for you to use the phone on their network. Most of the world uses GSM.
