does anyone know how much will cost
Sent from my HERO200 using Tapatalk
$2800 with a two year contract. $60,000 without a contract. That is in US dollars.
no one knows but id say full price without an upgrade will be more than the hero was...so probably around $500 +

Can you pm me his phone number? I want to pre-pay him for three handsets myself. Thanks.
Am I the only one that doesnt want the EVO here? I don't know... there's just a few things that draw me away from it.
Sorry for this rant, but I have to do it somewhere... okay, here goes.
First I don't know about you guys but Sense UI kinda gets old after a while, especially the HTC Keyboard, yeah I know they are gonna be making it a "larger keyboard" but its not the size that bugs me, its the layout. I don't like the whole press to get other characters like numbers and punctuation, imo the AOSP keyboard pwns & I think they should give the choice to use which keyboard you like best, not limit you to HTC's.
Also, I have a feeling this phone is gonna be wayy overpriced, sure its got crazy sweet features but I dont know... I just dont feel its worth it. For me, my next phone is gonna be the Nexus One (on Sprint). I feel they did that phone right, it's HTC but no Sense UI but not totally stock either.
Am I alone on this or does anyone get where I'm coming from?

Nexus one is a great phone as well, but is my second choice. I want the Evo because I prefer the bigger screen and I live in a 4g area. I agree that sense sucks, but XDA is going to be all over the Evo, so I'm not too concerned about custom ROMs.

damn and i was ready to give in an offer you the real froyo update... my inside sources at sprint have leaked it to me along with the chimp who wrote the kernel. I see your asian kid and offer you a aged bottle of jameson! or a night on the strip courtesy of my sprint chimp of course
I'd miss my trackball too though.
lol at the above posts. but on a serious note its been said to be about 300 after a rebate and like 480 with no upgrade.

His name is Kaiser Soce (sp?) and his phone number is (502)585-5961, wait for the short automated message to end. I told him to expect your call.
I've been on vacation and get back to see HTC has the 2.1 update and was surprised not to see more talk about it. So many threads about release dates and now its quiet. So who is using it and what are the pros and cons?
It's all about Froyo now.

No ones talking about it cuz its some bs. The official update didn't really do much. It is really fast and does fix some issues but nothing really. You lose root if you run root so if you want to try it use damages untouched version

I don't know what people were expecting, we've had 2.1 for months. My wife thinks it's cool tho, but she has a stock Hero and came from 1.5. The biggest change that I didn't realize was weather animation, I didn't know 1.5 didn't have them......
Everybody has been drooling and crying for 2.1 and now that its here all they can do is whine about wanting 2.2....there is just no pleasing some people........................

It's not that at all 2.1 was supposed to bring us live wallpapers, faster browser and so fourth but it didn't do any of that. It's ridiculus. And in the back of everyones mind we know that the only reason that sprint didn't deliver that was so everyone would choke up the money and get an evo or the less popular hardly heard of I1
After I installed the stock 2.1 ROM, my phone won't receive any calls. I can make calls, but not receive them. I spent over 2 hours yesterday with Sprint Customer Non-Service, and they were no help. I'm headed to the Sprint Store now to get my phone replaced, hopefully to a 1.5 so I can root that bad boy like I should have in the 1st place.
How come so many people thought we were getting live wallpaper and other advanced features of 2.1? Everything I read before going with a custom ROM was that neither moment or hero would get them because of weak specs.

LOL Regardless you are using all that senseless brain power for what? to annoy a few people who dont care about you on a online forum? Do you realize that? do you understand that i will go to sleep tonight and you will not even be on my radar? You will not even matter in any kind of existence what so ever. Your sole purpose as of right now is not even comprehend-able on this online forum. How does it feel when you get off your comfy chair at night and go to sleep knowing that you did absolutely nothing to contribute to any society what so ever. Im not sure you understand anything that goes on around you. Some people on this forum go to sleep thinking about their phones, some think about the next update or how they can contribute to this society...But no, not you, rather than say something useful you feel as if this society owes you something and we don't.
So go fly your little stealth fighter in your lonely world. Stay the **** out of ours.

No one, not even you knows the full truth of what's coming out. So don't go beating on rumors and talk cause that just puts you in the middle of crowd. Hell, even if it does turn out to be 3d dual screen and what ever else the rumors report, you've got no idea of the specs. That's our favorite report. So hold your pants on.

Anyone else think Google is going to buy the rest of the android team. ( Samsung, HTC)
It could be good, our future phones software will come directly from google & not be chopped and screwed like they are now.
I doubt apple would try to sue google if that happens.
This is crazy, I can only imagine how big Google will be 10 years from now, now they have some serious patents and will always have ad money, and that will only grow in the long run.
