Is the EVO getting Gingerbread?

Ok so back on topic..

I was talking with a HTC Software Engineer for the EVO. I was not given a direct yes or no answer on Gingerbread for the EVO but was told not to worry that Sprint nor HTC would disappoint with the EVO. As you all may think this is Sprints flagship device it is also HTCs flagship device as well. HTC and Sprint have been on the ball with the EVO and to be honest its the first phone that I have not been disappointed with.

With all that said I would be willing to bet that probably late Q4 2010 or early - mid Q1 2011 Gingerbread will be OTA for the EVO. Sprint will probably be the First official carrier to update an Android to Gingerbread as they were with Froyo.
