The Incredible is pretty big 3.7, I bet the EVO will seem enormous at 4.3. But that said, it does look like a really great phone. My touch pro 2 is 3.8 and is pretty thick with the slide out keyboard. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't even notice a thinner 4.3".And the Droid OS is great. Wasn't sure how I'd like it compared to WinMo, but now I'll never go back to that.

not sure on either. is needing to roam that big of a deal anymore?
Quote from: pissclams on May 19, 2010, 06:59:56 PMnot sure on either. is needing to roam that big of a deal anymore? looking at the map, I wouldn't be able to use it when I would be at my parents' house in BFE KS without roaming. But for $35/month for unlimited text and data and android it would be worth it.
And plan on buying an extended battery unless you want to keep it on the charger a lot, the amount of stuff these things can do drains the ones they come with extremely quickly. I'm trying to decide between an extended 1750 (over the 1300 that comes with the phone) that still fits in the current case or one of the bigger ones (2150) that requires a bigger back and makes the phone quite a bit fatter.
We know what you're thinking, though: what about battery life? Amazingly, we got some three hours and 13 minutes of run time while using the EVO continuously as a 4G hotspot -- and when we say "continuously," we mean we were streaming high-quality audio the entire time. What's more, the phone wasn't even fresh off the charger when we started; it had been on and in heavy use for two hours and four minutes prior. Bottom line, this thing seems to be a champion on a 1500mAh battery; we can't even begin to fathom what a massive aftermarket pack would do to it.

the battery life was my biggest concern as well- you've got 3 radios on it running simultaneously, a HD camera, etc, etc, etc but I've heard good things about the battery, which surprised me. we'll see in about a month.
