Not to my knowledge. I have been at work all day so let me remote into my home computer on Wimax to run a speed test.

edit: Got 5.24mb down and about 1mb up. Upload is slower than usual but I *am* remotely connected so that may be slowing things down. Likewise I just ran the test once and didn't try a variety of servers.

I haven't been using it all day so it may have come and gone throughout the afternoon.

 

[Leodoc]

Newest rumor is the phone is now running BIGabytes

Biggie Smalls will come out at hiding and rap on stage with Dan Hesse performing the beat box..

Special appearance by Puff Daddy.

Songs performed will be Mo' Money Mo' Problems and I love it when You call me Big EVO

eieio,

I spoke to Chris (Wallace) yesterday. Still up in the air on it. I'll get back to you on it...

Jackson should have the inside scoop...oh no I didn't!

@eieie.
I can't remember. Will you be attending the NYC event?

No.. I am in a cow poke town until May 20.

I hate stuff like that.. I dislike being in or around people and crowds..

Phandroid said they would be there..

I was hoping Engadget would to, they normal to realtime updates.. I never saw them post about the event (s) at all

 

[rebella]

the evo training started today for the Sprint Reps

couple things.

1. There will be an extra cost for the hotspot.
2. The fm radio needs the earpiece plugged in as it works as an antenna.
3. The Evo will have a special code and plan. I think the plan is the same just a different code.

Ok be honest.. I know you posted a date of June. Don't you think it will be earlier???

You can tell us your amongst friends

 

[rebella]

I think the phone will only be out on June 6th

Got it.
Cow Poke uh? I'm from Dallas, Texas and live in TN. I know a little bit about it. But I love it here. Yes. I can't believe that Engadget has not committed to be there.

 

[rebella]

the advocates will have it in the store May24th I think.

they are showing all the features of the phone just not releasing the plans or costs or release date yet. I think that will be released tomorrow maybe.

Have you heard about the stores running the 4g experience?? Stores in existing 4g areas??

@rebella
Did you get a look at the internal mem?

 

[rebella]

no I am not in 4g area yet. Coming in June I think

3. The Evo will have a special code and plan. I think the plan is the same just a different code.

So if we have an Everything Family Data Plan, we have to switch to a new plan for the Evo to work on it? Or simply the Everything Fam Data gets moved to a new plan that costs same and whatnot?

 

[rebella]

not an internal memo but an online training that we have to do. It is about 30 mins long.

 

[chriscrasto]

So rebella, where do you get this this-is-how-it-is information? Are you guessing or have an insider?

I'm not questioning your information because I think it's what's going to happen as well, just wondering.

 

[rebella]

I think the plan is the same, but a code for the evo similar to the blackberry. It is internal

work at Sprint

@rebella

Sorry I should have been clear.

Did you see how much internal memory it has?

 

[chriscrasto]

work at Sprint

Thank you. And thanks for the information

Yeah special code, Regular Everything Data plans though, right? Just tagged for 4G use in case client wants to utilize "extra" features like hotspot?

 

[htc.EVOlution]

got a text message from a buddy @ best buy. his district manager confirmed that best buy will do presale of the Evo on Thursday of this week

 

[rebella]

Everything Data Yes.

Also only the 1500 battery was shown.
don't remember the internal

 

[htc.EVOlution]

special plan code? so Everything Data Plan will not work
