The Shack is being prepared to take pre-orders for the Sprint EVO 4G later this month and today we discovered they are also planning a four-week campaign to promote the phone in stores. Our friends over at Android Central received the four page flyer and uploaded some high-res scans.
We all are getting excited for this big Android launch. We are still waiting for an official release date and pricing options, so the rumors are flying like crazy. Some are speculating that Sprint will release the EVO 4G on June 6th, the day before Apple is expected to announce the iPhone HD at WWDC. Many are suggesting the EVO will retail for $199 with 2yr contract, which is in line with current high-end smartphones.
It is rumoring that all the launch details will be unveiled May 12th when Sprint hosts a press event in New York.
Sprint unveiled the EVO running Android 2.1, but it looks like Android 2.2 could appear this month. Sprint still claims the EVO will support Flash 10.1, which is tied to FroYo (Android 2.2), so I guess anything is possible. Keep in mind that Adobe also told us Flash 10.1 was schedule for a June release.
To purchase the EVO many are willing to leave their current carrier. A business rep from Sprint stated that Sprint is offering a $100 credit to users who switch carriers and port their number.
