Any idea when Sprint will have EVO's in stock?

[bigdinog]

I was on EVP and was told they were on back order there as well. Ohh well, now that they are being shipped with 2.2 I do not know if I even want one. 8/31 is when Sprint restocks the EVO, or so I was told by a CSR over the phone.

Bet you 5 bucks when you come in to the store on 8/31 they will be like "Sorry we ran out of EVOs..but we just got this Epic 4G in stock today! look..its shiny!"

I received tracking information that mine was shipping on 8/20. It looks like they are coming back in stock at the Sprint Warehouse. The odd thing is the warehouse is located in Louisville KY. Believe it or not, they ship 2nd day air to an address also in Louisville. Too bad I couldn't just go and pick it up. I have to wait for UPS to play with the box for two days before dropping it off.

It's definitely been crazy. For me, nearly every radioshack, sprint store, best buy, and even sam's club is sold out. I happen to get lucky because there was a new best buy mobile store that opened up in the mall and I got a guy from another store to check the stock. They literally had 30 of them in the store at launch, and I finally got ahold of one!

Now be mindful, that I was also on a waiting list at radioshack for like 2 weeks and only one store just got back to me a day or two ago lol. SMH!

Believe it or not Wal-Mart has the EVO!!. Only 2 out of 7 Wal-marts in this area carry sprint phones and out of the 2 only 1 had the evo on display took me a couple days of calling to check when they would get another shipment in but I bought 2 from them, 1 for me and 1 for the Wifey.... and yes they do instant rebates so its straight up 199 plus tax...

I never wouldve thought that walmart would have the latest and greatest cell phones but they do now and by what the lady told me they all have dedicated portions of the electronics dept just for wireless now and are moving them to the front of the store im guessing to try and increase consumer awareness of what they have to offer....lol so for once in my life ill give a thumbs up to wally world...lol

Sprint is actually discontinuing the Evos, due to their decision to go to LTE instead... The only Wimax phone that will be available is the Samsung Epic on 8/31. No more Wimax phones after that... the next 4G phone will be a LTE device sometime 1st quarter of next year.













haha kidding. Had to. The If you're in Chattanooga, if you feel like driving down a couple hours to Atlanta - a few of the Best Buys here have them!

-might want to call first to make sure before making the drive of course! lol

No one is gonna fall for that for 2 reasons...
1) Sprint said they'd deploy both..and they have the spectrum to do so
2) Sprint won't be able to go LTE till at least 2011-2012.. mostly due to the fact that the only LTE they can do is TD-LTE...
