Sprint is hyping up the launch of the first 4G phone in the United States. The HTC Evo 4G is scheduled to make an appearance for the first time on June 4 and will be available for $200 and the mandatory soul crippling contract. "The Evo is a fantastic 3G device, but when you use it in our growing 4G coverage area, it becomes a multimedia powerhouse," said Dan Hesse, Sprint's chief executive. "The Evo experience is much like going from TV to HDTV." Sprint will charge each Evo 4G user $10 a month WiMax fee for 4G and 3G unlimited access. A small price for tech nuts, but a deal breaker for the mainstream public, who hesitate to fork over an extra $120 a year for a service that is compulsory. The launch of the new HTC Evo 4G is sure to stir up some market interest, as the long awaited iPhone 4G is scheduled for release at the same time.
