evo isn't gonna have much of an impact on ppl. look at it this way, 70ish % of America voted for Obama. 70% of ppl withsmartphones have an iPhone. ppl wanted change. change they got. with that change came a democracy change. we now have a ruler who tells us what we can and can't do. censorship anyone! the apple iPhone is exactly that kind of analogy. its ruled and censored by apple. there for ppl will continue to buy apple, cause they're the same now as they were then. they want 'change' and love it. I for one will continue to live outside the box cause I don't want to be ruled with my phone as we are with our pres. for further reference the iPhone shall be called the Obama phone. long live android!

A ruler that tells us what we can and cant do? Would you rather have a ruler that lies and sends us to war over false pretenses causing us to splurge billions of US dollars every month to "patrol" civilians? Or what about one that literally destroyed our economy and led unemployment to record highs? Or one that bombed Iraq to smitherines and then hired the VP's "former" company to go over there and rebuild... the same company that doesnt even think enough of the US to house their offices here but in Dubai? Please... I could go on for days. That's a change that was NEEDED and comparing that to the iphone is pretty ridiculous.

Im guessing you're a republican... what positive, if ANYTHING did the last president do for this country? Cash for clunkers jumpstarted the auto industry that had US automakers on the verge of bankruptcy. Unemployment is down and more jobs have been created ALREADY than in the whole second term of the "last" president. Universal healthcare is in the works, and more jobs are hiring than laying off for the first time in years... you sound like Rush Limbaugh.. maybe you should do like he said he was going to do if healthcare passed and leave the country.

how in hell does this have anything to do with apple or the evo?! that's what I thought, a true democrat that leaves the subject at hand to talk about what THEY want. go take it from Obama. and the Obama phone. long live android!

hahaha.. I love it when they blow up like this.

I was hoping for an April release like some of the other rumors were floating around, but it doesnt look like that will happen. I wanted to go to the store and tinker with it. Still dont think it will be able to make me leave muh SERO though. Im cheap

Well on the plus side the iphone os 4.0 really didnt show anything spectacular... but we all know apple really never has to just to be able to sell. I figured Sprint would be dragging their legs.. they should have had that EVO out no later than the end of May.

Inside sources at Sprint doesn't even know either. It's just pure speculation of around June 13th

your right, especially in a non related to political thread. us non Obama fans have enough common sense to realise that we shouldn't 'change' a thread. besides, who ever said I was a republican? you dems just have no clue.

I agree, the Obama 4.0 phone didn't show us anything. as jobs said, 'just like the iPad' lol. so the analogies months ago were true, the Obama phone is just like the iPad. why didnt they just design a larger Obama phone? oh wait they did

Yes, I have spoke with a few different reps, in person, and on phone, and I have concluded none of them have any idea.
The most reliable one I have spoken with was a Sprint electrician at a cell site on my company's property. I asked him about 4G. He explained what it takes to upgrade tower to 4G, and when asked about the Evo, he said "Yeah I heard they were launching that thing end of May."
Other than that, none of the three Sprint/Nextel reps that were recently at my job, had any clue to launch date, except "summer"
I get the feeling most of us on these forums have a better idea then most Sprint employees. Supersonical on android forums seems pretty well informed, and most people there respect his opinion.

I cant believe that they havent even started advertising it yet... that alone leads me to believe that it wont be this month or May. Then again Sprint has been known to lack in the department of advertising but I find it REALLY hard to believe they'd goof that up with this phone.
