I see you have gotten the new phone. I have a couple of questions for you and for any other owners of this new phone from Sprint.
1. LOL I am a little naive, but can you post on covers with that thing? Does the internet come up just like it does on your home computer? In other words, not a mobile version but the real deal? Can you get to and bet on your online sites with that thing?
2. What's the battery life like? I had seen where the battery life on other phones similar was terrible. How's yours doing in that regard?
3. Are there any quirks that make you wish you hadn't bought it?
4. What accessories did you get with it? Which woulkd you recommend?
5. Will you be able to watch NFL Network on that bad boy?
Thanks Depeche, and to anybody else with this new HTC Evo 4G. It looks awesome and I plan on getting it in a week or two if I hear enough good things about it. Thanks again.

1. Covers renders beautifully, but I can't seem to type into the box at the bottom. I think it's a Covers thing. Covers??? No problems at any other forums. It's the real deal, almost. Flash Lite support, not full flash, just yet, should be soon. Yes, you can bet at most sites. Matchbook is buggy, is on all phones I think.
2. This is very much YMMV. It depends a lot on where you are and how hard it has to work to get a signal. Mine has been pretty good, pretty much on par with Palm Pre. I can get through a day no problem unless I'm wailing away on it.
3. No. There are certain little things I liked better on the Pre, but overall very happy.
4. I got the Body Glove, that's it. Don't know much about accessories.
5. I would assume so. Video renders great and the kickstand seems so obvious and is very helpful.
I would go ahead and get it and they'll give you 30 days to return for a refund. Only reason to return would be if your signal is no good and the battery just can't keep up.

Thanks very much for the response, Depeche. I guess my question should have been for #5....Can you watch NFL Network on it like on the Palm Pre. My wife has the Pre and lets me watch NFL Network when we are out somewhere and I'm bored lol. So can you, right now, watch whatever is on NFLN?
What did you like better about the Palm Pre, just so I have an idea what to expect?
Again, thank you for responding and good like with that bad boy. I'll let you know when I get it what I think.

I'm looking at 'Sprint Football Live' - is that the same thing? Not sure.
I like the gesturing system better on the Pre. The swipe up and across, etc., rather than the buttons. Also some little things: i liked the way the calendar rendered, switch at the top to go vibrate, small things like that. But overall this thing is so much more heavy-duty and packed with good shit.
