3) WiMax is still in few cities and signal is much weaker than 3G. My city is covered but I cannot get a 4G signal in MANY places, especially indoors. WiMax uses 2500MHz, far more sensitive to walls and trees than the already too spotty Sprint 3G (1900Mhz).

4) Battery life is too short, hardly lasts a day. Even a laptop these days can last a whole day with power on.

So, what that 1GHz processing power can do for me, for now and for the future?
LOL!

1) Never gonna happen (well, not NEVER, but unlikely in your lifetime as good cameras are MUCH bigger than the Evo for a reason...

2) Stupid, keyboard makes the phone WAY bigger but to each his own. You still can't see most entire emails even with a hardware keyboard (I came from the TP2 fyi).

3) So? The phone is the greatest phone in existence even without 4G.

4) Uh, there are no laptops that last a day at all... even with extended batteries. What planet are you from? There aren't even any netbooks that can last a day lol.

I don't know when the next great phone will come out, but I'm sure I can survive another year to see what improvements (over an already great phone) will be offered.

Just to let you know, everyone, including AT&T, is beginning to remove their unlimited data plans in light of massive downlo.. Ah that's bs they are just greedy. But anyway, the $10 fee compared to the $30 for the iPhone, compared to the future $50 over-data-usage fees, is gunna be the best for awhile. So as my favorite Zombieland character always says, "It's time to nut up or shut up."
