You do know that Nexus devices never had a microSD slot so not sure why that is a surprise to you.  Some of the other major flagships don't have that feature either so we just have to deal with it.

I believe the first Nexus, the Nexus One had a sd card. 

Hopefully Marcelo and his marketing team reads this and does something quick. Excellent writeup.

Back on topic guys.

If I recall, Robert also pointed out in one of the threads, that due to the time-frame in which Samsung unveils the Note series every year, the devices are more likely to not include the latest changes imposed by Sprint. Last year it was Spark/Tri-Band, this year its CA, not full CCA/ RRPP, etc. Its always something with the Notes. At least this time around it is a Sparks phone.

btw, A+ on the article.

I wouldn't mind seeing an Asus cdma/LTE device on Sprint also.

Anyway, this one is nice I have to admit. I'm curious to see the hands on reviews of it. 

The article is awesome and what really struck a cord is that first image. lol My better half says the same thing. Although I do not do it so much for cell tower/LTE stakeouts like Robert does. I once planned a trip to Chicago solely on the basis of visiting United headquarters. I plan on doing one for Kansas City to visit Sprint and he tells me "Why" and I reply "because Sprint is there", I get instant roll of the eyes. lol

A+ P_M_G

I sense you are holding back Robert, don't hold it in, let it out man, let it all out.

All joking aside, I agree with the article.

Android Authority site also posted about this and I love how they said

Sprint 4G rollout specialist site S4GRU (yes, there are such sites) reports that the first 4G LTE network from Sprint is already up and running in Kansas City, KS.

What the ... (TS reads thread, faints on keyboard................................

TS wakes up minutes later.

WOO HOO. Awesome news. Love seeing those little green and yellow markers all over that map.

As for the time frame, I am surprise its 90 sites per month, it seems that every other building here in the city has a site on it and to get permission from the owners etc takes time. But I won't complain if they do get that many done in a month.

Thanks Rob for the article.

Love the picture of Q. lol

As for a keyboard, oh well. I'll still would like to see it in person.

TS

Good review. I actually have this unit and it grabs a 3G and 4G signal better than my previous devices. Hoping that when NYC gets LTE, it will grab that as well too.

TS

The part that has me confused is "NFC antenna integrated into battery. Besides this being the first time I see that, does it mean if i wanted a replacement battery, it would seem that no ordinary battery replacement would do. Most likely a oem one is in order.

How about the name of HTC Evo One or Evo One X? That sounds more fluid than HTC One Evo.

Seems that EggotheKilljoy called it before anyone else on the web.

TS

Damn.

aha so this is where it was posted. lol

Sorry for the back to back post (I hate doing those), but it seems that some how, some way, I got invited by Sprint to go to the event. But what is strange is that I do not recall signing up for anything and its coming from sprintevents@stantoncomm.com which has been used by Sprint in the past. I asked over in the Sprint forums and it seems that it wasn't them. It wasn't S4gru and Phandroid where I'm a mod didn't do it either. So for now its a mystery as how I got invited, but it seems the geek gods have smiled at me, so no need to crash that party. lol

I am sure to take images and write up what I see.

hmmm maybe I'll win one. That would be sweet.

Yea Sprint, Yea HTC.

TS

I go out to Mastic and Southampton about every two weeks and it will be nice to get faster speeds out there.

When I first saw that ad, it looked like the Stylus for the Note, but duh HTC doesn't make it, then again HTC makes the rumored Quattro 10.1 tablet (update for the Jet tablet on the other carrier), but it does look like a pin drop.

Most likely it is the HTC One X version for Sprint. But if its the Quattro it will be one heck of a announcement.

As for NYC being the place, yoo hoo. Too bad I have not way of crashing the party. If memory serves me right, the last time they did an event in NYC before wimax was officially up and running, they wired the building to get wimax signals, might do the same thing again with LTE.

TS

hmmmm another good device, its getting harder and harder choosing one.

TS

I myself was off by that 5 in the date. lol Though t it was April 1 but its 15th, Tax day. lol Either way, glad to see it finally coming to Sprint.

Good work getting the scoop.

TS

"Also, I am writing another article this weekend about a device that releases on 6/10"

Please let it be the Galaxy Note

TS

So if 20 of them were done in 10 days, that's about 2 per day so if there are about 920 to go then that would be about 460 days left.

TS

Awesome. Love it.
