I would honestly rather have a nexus s 4g. I am not a fan of 3d. If the nexus s would have come out within my 30 day trial period i would have traded my epic in. Lord knows how long it will take to see 2.3 on the epic at the current rate. If you havr battery problems now i can't imagine 3d and 4g combined. After 2.2 was installed i have had way better battery life. I can run live wallpapers all day and still be productive with the phone.
Yes phone. That's what it is. Anything more is just to occupy my time. I really don't need or want 3d features. I had an evo and really the best thing about it was the kickstand. The 4.3 screen was just outside my size preference. 4.0 is just right for me.
I am thinking about the Nexus. I like the "pure" Google experience that the Nexus line offers. Oh yeah, Gingerbread right out of the box. The Evo will be a better device hardware-wise, though.
