Sprint Send out Evo Contest Promo Today

The finalist will receive an 1 Evo - This blogging contest will end Aug 31 Read the rules.. So if it is a premier promotion to be one of the 1st to own the phone, why is far off base to assume the phone will not be release until September?

No way in hell they'd release the Evo after the iPhone that would be crazy. It's definitely coming early-mid June.

The contest ends May 9th, at midnight. The semi-finalists will be notified on May 18th. If you win a trip, it must be taken no later than July 31. The blogging will end on Aug 31. The winners will be blogging about their experiences about the evo. That would mean the phone will be released in plenty of time for bloggers to write about their experiences with the Evo. I'd assume that since the trips are to 4G wired cities, and you must take the trip before July 31, the phone will be out before July 31.

According to the contest rules, the phone will be released between May 18, and July 31, 2010. There's your official release date ;)

Nice... I did not read into the blogging part other than the dates. Thanks for clarifying. I think you got it...

yeah i was thinking sometime in June. It would give the winners the " Hey look what i got" and enough time for them to be comfortable with the phone and ready for the trip. It could all be speculation but the timing seems reasonable enough.
