Pretty bad ass, the camera's are sick....

Only down fall is the battery life...but maybe its cuz I am new to the android market

I'm told it's pretty fast. Does that come with the sense UI or whatever it is? Because if it used the stock android, you can download a SNES emulator from the market, and use your wii mote to play with!

Oh, as far as processor, its fucking blazing fast, 1 gig snapdragon. 4G is not available in Indianapolis yet, so I have not experienced 4G speed, but the 3G internet is blazing fast for me. Iam not sure about the sense UI, what do you mean?

Kraker, Did you already have Verizon or is it a new plan?

I've been looking at either the Evo or the Sprint equivalent (the Incredible? maybe I have that backwards....) ,but Sprint seems to have the better deal as far as service. Something like $70/month for unlimited everything.

yea, verizon has the incredible, sprint has the EVO...lol

From everything I have read online the EVO is better, because of the Android 2.1 sense, which allows you to completely customize your phone...and the 4G (assuming you live where 4G is available)

4G will be here this Summer. I guess the Evo is in a little bigger case (frame?) than the Incredible,but not too much bigger.I carry in my pocket (never see me with one of those bat-belts),so smaller is better.
How much storage space do you have (for MP3s)?

I've played with an EVO that my co-worker just bought. I'd rather have the Incredible. I don't like the larger footprint of the EVO. It's bigger than my Droid, and my Droid is about as big as I'd want a phone to be. I don't find it very comfortable to hold in my hand. Battery life sucks ass. You have to turn off just about everything (GPS, Wifi, 4G, Bluetooth) to even get it to make it through the work day.

I have yet to find a smartphone that has good battery life. I will tell you this, the EVO has the biggest battery of all of them. The screen is HUGE, but seriously, if you got hands like a man, you should be fine

I am a bat belt guy, so I like my phone holder, frees up my pockets for keys, money, and cigs....

It comes with an 8 gig memory card for storage, but you can always upgrade. For me, 8 gig is plenty. I dont use my phone as an mp3 player, since I have an iPod touch...

Not to mention the HD video recording it can do, with HDMI output so you can upload to your computer or play through your TV...

I have a Touch too,but I'm a pocket guy,so I don't want to carry both. 8Gigs is cool.....I can deal with that.

As far as the bat-belt goes...If there is any sort of decorative chain that goes from bat-belt to pants...please hand over a man card. Direct violation of Man Code #6,subsection 9.

" No decorating of any utility holster. Be it for a gun or cellphone,at no point shall it be adorned with gold,silver,or platinum lest it be considered jewelry."
