What are the differences between the Evo and Evo 3D?

If there was an Evo Speed, I.E. an Evo 3D minus all the 3D gimmick stuff, in placement of a mere hardware jump, that'd be nice. The dual camera 3D capture stuff I can see possibly being a nifty feature, but nothing beyond that. I could care less. If I take a picture, I'd honestly prefer it to be just the standard 2D picture, in moderate quality as is acceptable from a cell phone.

If you use the HDMI port on the 4g, the 3d does not have one.

Well, the HDMI and USB port are combined into a single port on the 3D. So it doesn't have a standalone HDMI port, and the new port will probably require a new cable. In addition, the 3D will project anything that is on the screen to the HDMI/USB port, it is not limited to certain types of video.

The 3D will also allow you to stream audio/video wirelessly with DLNA if you have a DLNA capable TV/device or to separate Media Link attachment.

Well everyone knows that the HTC EVO is just an incredible phone, with one major flaw... battery life.
Now the thunderbolt was just released and is basically the HTC EVO's suped up twin, but after having the pleasure to play with it.. that extra 256mb of RAM makes a world of difference in speed and UI response. But they made a mega-fail in this phone, it only has a 1400mah battery.. yes, that's even less than the 1500mah battery the EVO has. Why in the world would you make a faster EVO, and then give it a smaller battery after all the complaints on the horrendous battery of the EVO?
So i was checking out a review of the EVO 3D and lookin at the specs and this phone looks like it's going to be ridiculous and stunning.

It has a 1500Mhz Processor and will be running the even faster 2.3 Gingerbread (everyone recalls the amazing speed increases from 2.1 to 2.2 froyo)
Now considering the Thunderbolt is insanely fast at only 1Ghz and 768MB Ram.. The EVO 3D at 1.5GHz and 1GB of Ram is going to be just an insane and sickly amount of power (but oh no, that will destroy the battery right?) OF COURSE IT WILL, BUT .. yes there's a BUT

THEY FINALLY ADDRESSED THAT BECAUSE THE EVO 3D COMES WITH A 4000mAh battery! yes 4000! The largest extended battery you can purchase for the EVO now is 3500, and i've never had the pleasure to use one, but the reviews for it are all just great. People saying that they cant get there EVO to DIE If they tried to, saying they get 36-48 hours of moderate to heavy usage with the extended battery.

So i truely cannot wait for the release of the EVO 3D, it appears as though HTC listened to all of us, and truly worked towards creating the Ultimate EVO that we all have grown to love so much. If you love your HTC EVO then you're going to HAVE TO get the EVO 3D, it's you're EVO but on massive massive steroids for power and a neverending 4000mAh battery. I just cannot wait to get this phone. Let me know your thoughts on it.. EVO 3D, LOVE IT OR HATE IT?
