HTC Evo 4G Teardown - iFixit

According to that the EVO has an 802.11a/b/g/n chip in it. And looking at the chip and doing a search on the model shows the same thing yet the Evo specs show no N. I wonder if we will get this "upgraded" with the 2.2 release like rumors about the Nexus 1 (same chipsets).

Nexus One may get 802.11n Wi-Fi with Android 2.2 | Electronista

That's what I was thinking...they still have to update the drivers for Android so it supports the feature.

Here's hoping that Wireless N is coming in the near future to an Evo 4g near you.

meh i dont really want n... thats gonna make the thing chug even more power... n is 3x more power hungry than bg so you will be running hotter and using more power

I'm going to contact them to see if that lens cap for the camera is easily replaceable and if they can carry some in stock in case people scratch their lenses.
