i was going to open up an account with T-Mo to get the HD2, but now thankfully i dont have to open up another phone line. im definitely picking the EVO up (even if there wont be wimax in my area for years). now the only real question is if i can wait for my premier customer upgrade in august or if i want to shell out full retail day one...

How many of you that are going to get it right away are in 4g coverage zones?

Philly has it, I'm in Delaware, but it's the same market, so it should be available here, and if not, I'm always in Philly or back home in Baltimore =)

who all is camping out for this? get to the back of the line!

knowing sprint, it won't be in stores for at least 3-4 months after its released just like the TP2

Now you know that won't matter when they have Telesales getting stuff way before the stores get their 1st batch delivery date. I will be calling and placing an order the 1st day this bad boy is available, my Hero might make a trip to Ebay.

why does everyone feel the need to give the finger to iphone? iphone users have been ENJOYING their phone for years, while your still waiting for a device that isn't even out yet!

Aghghhghgsafhsljdafhjsadf

Had to get that off my chest

Carry on!

It's because we're angry. Very angry.

We're sick and tired of everyone with an iPhone automatically being cooler than us just because people know what an iPhone is. We are tired of hearing "is that an iPhone?" whenever we pull out our phones, and we are tired of the blank stares we get when we say "no its the HTC Touch Pro 2" (or whatever ridiculously long name that requires at least one mid-sentence inhalation we respond with). We are tired of attempting to explain what windows mobile is, or what android is. But most of all, we are tired of being the minority. We are tired of being in the uncool group even though we are much, MUCH more bad ass than all of those silly iphone users.

It's time for us to rise up and take a stand... we need to make sure that people know, but more importantly.... UNDERSTAND... that WE, the non iPhone users are LIKE, TOTALLY WAY MORE COOLER THAN YOU!

We demand proper recognition for the amount of money that we've paid for our phones. We want our pat on the back... and we want it NOW!

if people keep comparing a phone to the iPhone then everyone will compare it to the iPhone... let's keep the iPhone in a class of it's own and let other phones stand on their own merits...

This looks like it would be a nice phone especially if you live in an area with 4G coverage, which I happen to live in, anyone want to trade? HA HA

Saying that 8MP camera 3.2MP 780p camcorder is over kill isn't the point, I think the point is that it can take very high quality pictures and video if you want it... HDMI out, now that's sweet only if you can carry a high definition monitor with you... I think a great feature that missed this phone is having a built in DTV tuner, shoot even a HD-DTV tuner... wouldn't it be sweet to watch over-the-air TV on this thing, like if you're out and about and want to watch some football or something? Thankfully I have a job where I'm off on weekend!

Two words: Sling Player

Also, the HDMI out is great. I often go to my parents house or my sisters house and want to show them a video or pictures that I've taken. Now instead of having to bust out a proprietary cable and use crappy composite cables I can hook it up via HDMI and they can enjoy the media in HD. MMMMMMMM
