No beef here, just some fun with the Steeler Browns rivalry. My M.O. whether I really care or not is to just support my home teams where I live or have lived and then whatever others I may like. As far as the time goes, I'm a little wired from playing some late night tennis at the Rockefeller Park courts. Figures, the best public courts we have found are not in the burbs but right downtown Clevo.

I don't "own" the epic but I work for The Shack and have had a chance to play with it extensively. I love the Epic! Almost as much as I love the EVO! I have no sound issues with my EVO in video recording (thought I'd mention it) nor did I have video/sound problems with the Epic. I love the Epic's fluidness compared to HTC's Sense and of coarse I love the screen. The keyboard is a non issue for me as I use the O S keyboard on the Evo like a mofo. All in all it's samsungs best phone. I would get it but I have 5 lines and no more is available nor are any of them due for an upgrade just yet. The ONLY gripe I had with the Epic was the GPS. We set all the settings mentioned here and on xda for it to work correctly but it was off by a 1/2 mile at worst when it actually connected to a satellite...and we were in the parking lot. Otherwise, it's an amazing phone! I'm glad to see sprint getting some quality top rate phones for once!!

I'm a little dissapointed with the AMOLED screen. Dont get me wrong, the deep contrast is great, but the subpixels arent small enough to become indistinguishable(to me atleast).

Either way, I think I'm going to sit on my hands and wait around for the next phone. Hopefully one with a long life OLED display

Talk about being picky......the next phone that's good with OLED will probably have something that you nitpick on as well...Good luck with finding a phone that fit's your wants....I'd like to suggest an LG Rumor, I heard those where nice

yeah, I agree with nvmyc, by the time a (noticeably) better phone comes out my year will have went by and I'll be eligible for a new one! I'm still in my first week with this phone and I have some really extensive reading to do comparing it to the EVO, but I have a feeling I'll stick with this Epic..It's been a while since I sat down and things just worked on a phone! I mean, other than I had a hard time connecting it to my PC and I'm pretty sure I have that working now?

I just don't know how much better a phone could get ..for my needs at least? Like I said in my original post, I came from the HTC TP2 and spent hours upon hours trying different settings to finally get it to where it did what I wanted it to. It never did get the Navigation working well, so I use my Garmin...lol so even though the Epic's is a bit off, I really don't mind.

Anyway, by the time I'm up to speed on all the functions/specs this thing has I'll be nearing the 30 day window and I can then make up my mind 100%. All I can say now though is: I have never had a phone that worked like this! I'll have to play with the EVO a little more too. I already have a little, but I AM coming from WM and am just now getting a feel for Android.

I love the simple fact that I can use voice input while driving to do anything from searching for my next destination in navigation to writing out an entire text message with nothing but a tap on the mic and my voice

I agree with the OP 100%! This phone ROCKS!!! My wife is a bit annoyed with me because I haven't stopped playing with it since I got it, but hey, like I said....

THIS PHONE ROCKS!!!

Copy that and raise it to a love made in heaven.. LOL

Heh...you must be young still. Once you hit 40, small pixels will drive you nuts.
