CTIA in March 2010 gave me the opportunity to see the HTC EVO 4G, Sprint upcoming flagship device. We gave enough juicy details that make your mouth water and displays the phone. We were only allowed to have limited access to the phone, taking pictures limited to only certain features or applications, and certainly left us wanting more. Sprint HTC tonight and make an event to reveal all the answers to our burning questions: When you quit? How much will the phone and the cost of data plans? What else can you do?

The most important detail is that the EVO 4G arrive in Sprint stores on June 04, conveniently just before the Apple WWDC, it is most likely when the new iPhone will be announced. With two-year contract and after rebates by mail, will cost $ 199.99 EVO 4G (exactly as rumored).

At the top of the price of the phone there will be an additional $ 10 required monthly “premium data plan, which is encoBEP unlimited usage of 4G/3G, as well as new service Qik two way video chat. The video chat is not a surprise given the forward looking camera on the EVO 4G, but it is a new concept in the U.S. that can be hard to believe what is happening really. It is nice to know that video chat will be available until the 3G and 4G.

In addition, we should not neglect the ability to issue the EVO 4G WiFi for up to 8 devices at once. However, not bundled with this $ 10 monthly charge, but the WiFi privilege can be yours for $ 29.99 a month. While this sounds like, of course, much more than the average consumer wants to pay the charge WiFi is actually much less Mifi, or immobilization of any other U.S. provider. So much so in fact that is incredibly tempting for me to leave my ISP today and use Sprint’s 4G at EVO for a price much lower.
