I'll admit, I have serious EVO envy. It's got just about everything anyone can possibly want in a smartphone (no physical KB but with a screen that size, you probably don't need it).

The question is ... will it come with FroYo?

*tomato* · 05-12-2010, 06:53 PM

BTW, that reminds me, Kioshi , I haven't found out much about multi-language support. I went to play with the VZW Incredible (awesome phone BTW) but couldn't figure it out. There maybe an app in the Android market that might help you text in dual languages, but it doesn't come on the phones out of the box as far as I can tell.

For European languages, you just go into the settings, and disable auto correct -that's 2 clicks away - (or you can even change the phone language if you want) before texting. A bit of a pain. For Asian languages or langauges with different characters, you're gonna have to use an app to text. That's my understanding but I can't really prove it or disprove it because I'm still phoneless right now.

sorry tomato.....it was $99 for like 2 hours then they bumped it to $149.....most likely it was on contract...

It was on amazon as one of their deals. I found out about it on my app called The Coupons App hehe

*tomato* · 05-14-2010, 01:42 PM

yeah, it always is on contract.
that's OK, though, I have ordered a phone last week

*tomato* · 05-14-2010, 05:41 PM

holy cow, Google shuts down their online Nexus One store!

probably a good move for Google

Nooooo..... you'll miss out on the awesomeness of the Evo!

Kioshi · 05-17-2010, 01:42 PM

Since Sprint has that guarantee thing going on, (haven't read details on it), I might as well try the Evo, try an external app to see if i can type Japanese on it...if not, return it?

Sounds too easy to do though~~

*tomato* · 05-17-2010, 03:02 PM

^ I strongly, strongly recommend you look at the EVO before you commit to the Incredible. EVO is simply the best Android phone on the market right now.

It's not so much the extra MP or the front facing camera, it's the little bit of extra screen you get that makes all the difference IMO.

The only thing I"m concerned about is battery life. Waiting for the geek press to post their reviews, which should be any day now (they usually get phones a good 2 weeks before their release date).

aww, don't be. AT&T had the iPhone when the rest of us were still walking around with Razrs and you know, if the rumors are right, some pretty good stuff is coming to AT&T in the near future
