My guess is it will be a "smartphone fee" similar to how metro has it..where you pay $10 more if its a smartphone..

The reason for this fee is also most likely not due to 4G but sprint wanting to be competitive on smartphone pricing....putting up a phone for 350$ while verizon puts it up for 200$ or less with people complaining probably made them make this move....and the EVO was the perfect time to implement it in their view.
