Notice when you see EVO and EVO Shift side by side that the EVO has less wasted space on the front. The black unused space above/below the screen and buttons is much less on the Senior. Junior could have extended the screen down a little, but maybe it's a diagonal scaling thing, huh? Would it have also been wider to be longer?
Too bad they didn't use the HTC Touch Pro2 keyboard. A few nicer shortcut buttons and the number row like that would have been better, like they used for the HTC 7 Pro coming to Sprint as well.
