EVO on Verizon?

Verizon getting the Motorola Shadow instead of EVO

Very doubtful. They may get an Evo clone, but the major selling point of the Evo is the WiMAX 4G, which is not a standard VZW is going to be using.

Verizon will be releasing the Motorola Droid Shadow which is basically a keyboardless Droid with a 4.1" screen. Doesn't look like a front facing camera, but will have OMAP processor with seperate graphics processor, 8MP camera, 8GB of onboard storage and HDMI out like the EVO. Much thinner and square lines. It won't have 4G, but I would definitely take this over the Incredible any day. Should be out in June/July timeframe.

Just wait for the Shadow. Slightly smaller screen, better processor (imo) and stock Android. All better.

Actually, it appeared to have that crappy motoblur crap.

LOL an OMAP processor is better than a Snapdragon??

Correct, it has that horrible Motoblur. It is not stock Android.

Well they are different types of signals iirc. But VZW's LTE network won't be ready for 1-2 years, so what is the point of getting the Evo on VZW if you can't use the 4G anyway. The Incredible seems like the winning solution here.

Note that Verizon has said they'll be selling LTE this fall in markets that cover 100 million people.

Agreed on the Incredible if you have to be on Verizon. Love mine.
