I decided to join the forum since most of my google searches about my new EVO leads me here. I have a couple of questions. Go easy on me if it's all been cover ad-nauseam on the forum as I'm still getting a feel.
1. Is there an "out of the box" unified inbox for the HTC EVO or Hero? I've seen couple of threads hijacked by people that don't understand what that is or don't feel the need to have it. But regardless, I want it. I think it's a great feature added to the iPhone and I'd love to have it on my EVO. Is K9 the way to go?
2. I would like to backup my apps to my PC or Mac. What's the best solution for that? Since I'm coming from the iPhone, I have all of my music in iTunes. I found doubleTwist does a good job of syncing my music from the Mac. If anyone knows of a better alternative that also does video (better), that would be great. But my biggest worry is having to reset my phones and having to get ALL of my apps again. Is there a consensus on the best app backup? This can be Windows.
3. I've heard that Froyo will work for the EVO. Will it work for the Hero as well? I know - this is the EVO board, but someone may have some insight to this.
4. Does anyone have any tips to get the most out of the camera? It's "8 MPixels", but that doesn't mean much of the image capture quality is junk. You're just left with 8 MP of... Well... Junk.
Thanks for the time guys. I'm looking forward to learning more about my new phone and the platform. I'll admit that I would still be on the iPhone if AT&T didn't continue to remind me that they suck and I think the Android platform may have some catching up to do in terms of polish. But as I learn more about the Android, I'm starting to not miss the iPhone at all.
