Its because Intercept came out first I guess...my guess is they had Intercept for quite a while and just got around to doing it...

A lot more noise is also coming from the epic community then the intercept community when it comes to the froyo debate. Sprint also released froyo in a timely manner for the EVO which i understand is their flagship phone, but the epic is also considered their top tier phone.
This doesn't make any sense unless not many epics.

The EVO they were trying to beat the other guys to Froyo and establish a brand for it...the Epic to sprint is not as interesting because Galaxy S phones are on every carrier..and their version has a kb..which after steve jobs speach kb phones are considered a "niche market"..
Not to mention, most people are quick to blame Samsung and not Sprint..so Sprint isn't in any hurry..I mean realistically if the fire was on Sprint you would see us upgraded to gingerbread by now...
A lot of people blame manufacturers which don't get me wrong are responsible but if enough fire is put on the carrier they would force the manufacturers to release updates and faster..they have that kind of influence..I mean if it were up to Samsung they would release i9000 models to everyone use Kies, give us TV-out and tethering...but each carrier forced them to customize the phone for them..that goes to show how powerful the carriers really are..
