Htc evo 4g?!!?

The EVO 4G is nice, but I'll take an HTC Incredible over it any day. Furthermore, theres no way WiMax (Sprints 4G) is going to survive against AT&T's and Verizon's LTE 4G...

My opinion? Android is quickly going to become a formidable force for Apple to contend with.

Maybe, Verizon just make a comment yesterday that for LTE data they are not going to have any unlimited plans, only tiered.

I will say though that LTE is going to blow WiMax out of the water, and you can tell Sprint is trying to jump in early to try to pull people in and get them under contract before the others can upgrade their networks.

On the note of an iPhone killer, from Android 2.0 any "decent" phone with Android is better, until Apple decides to release OS 4.0. At that point Android will already be beyond 2.2 (Froyo) and pushing more features than Apple can throw apps at.

For some reason I'm optimistic that Sprint will produce a good product this time with WiMax. I like seeing companies that once sucked *** make a 180 and actually thrive. They say that ATT has the worst network out right now, so I think they have quite a way to go and with the info you posted about Verizon, I think Sprint would stand a fighting chance...

I agree to, as it pains me to say it Apple was dead in the water and got a second chance and look at them now (more evil than Microsoft & Google

).
I am a bit glad to be on Verizon right now, was on AT&T for years, but I will say I never had issues in Houston (or Austin, Dallas, basically anywhere in Texas) on AT&T.

Its weird though... Look up the locations where WiMax already exists. There are some random *** places in Texas that have it. Maybe there something special about Texas... aside from everything being bigger

I dont think the up/down speeds of WiMax are nearly as good as LTE's. Furthermore, Verizon and AT&T will be using the same infrastructure practically, and they are BEHEMOTHS compared to Sprint. Even Sprint itself has hinted they may go to LTE...
