Are none of you familiar with the way Sprint works with this by now? Neither Evo to date has come out prior to the first week in June and this one won't be any different.

What's the use in speculating about a release date? They're gonna release it whenever they're ready anyway. Since they've done away with the Premier program, my main concern is if/when they get the Note (the E4GLTE is my second choice). Wish the E4GLTE had a removable battery, too.
I dont care for the Note, its just a bigger Galaxy S 2 that will be over shadowed by the GS3, the battery thing I can care less for, in owning several Android since the G1 it has never been one of my concerns. Why do I HAVE to have a second battery? In case I lose juice on my phone? For a cold reboot?...... I will be ok. Its called car charger, xtra charger, and holding down the power button until the unit goes off.
Now back to the topic of this post!
I just hope that when the phone is released that Best Buy still has the $50 savings plus a $50 Best Buy Gift Card when you trade in a EVO 4G......paying $149 plus getting a gift card for giving up my OG EVO would kick ass!!!
I just went to a Tmobile store to play with the One s Htc was there pumping up the phone ( its launch day). I asked Him about the New Evo..... Then he responded "That comes out on the May 18" Then he tried to get me to buy a One s.
I also got some HTC swag too. I did ask if he had one ( EVO) and he said no..
There it is May 18 is the date

I really hope this guy knew what he was talking about. Although, a friday is a strange release day for a phone from Sprint.
EVO 3D was released on a Friday last year.
I believe that Best Buy will give the Gift Card after the purchase of sale. So, you would have to spend that money on something else like an accessory.
I even said to him "you mean like June something right." And he replied "No its May 18"
The Nexus didnt have a long preorder to release timeline either

I know the One X is slightly diff than the E4GLTE but i got a chance to play with one this past weekend and DAMN its a sweet phone. If the Evo is as good or better than it were gonna have one sweet a@# phone. Camera is tops and everything is soo smoothe and from what i can tell excellent build quality. Not a big fan of the beats setting tthough, who would of thunk lol. This and the SG3 are gonna be my tatgets for this summer mos def.

I just spoke with the Sprint Project Manager at my job, and she says that the release will be May 18th.
Update: Was also just told that all Sprint Store Signage (which my company prints for them) will be shipped to Sprint Stores on May 14th for a release of May 18th.

Hope so! Saw you getting some love over @ goodandevo First look at marketing materials for HTC EVO 4G LTE, May release date is confirmed
Are you a Sprint employee, or just connected?
I asked this question earlier in this thread, but being it is now almost May 2nd and still no announced date ... Could Sprint really start accepting pre-orders on May 7th WITHOUT announcing a release date?
And if so, would you still pre-order?

That happens all the time in the video game world. Hell to make it into the Guild Wars 2 beta weekends you had to pay in full up front for a game with no release date.

Actually saw the EVOLTE today, as I bumped into the HTC Rep at the Sprint store. It was quite simply the most gorgeous screen I've ever seen on a device, and the shiny plastic on the back wasn't that bad. As others have said, there are three antennas in the rear cover, no LTE sim card, and it was hardware revision 002, and the Rep said it wasn't the final device. He specifically pointed out the kickstand wasn't final, and true to his word, it wasn't very strong or spring loaded. He specifically wouldn't let me take pictures, as it was engraved on the front with an "E******" for engineering serial number and said he'd get in trouble. The guy was really cool, so I respected his request. He let me spend quite a bit of time with it, and yes, it flies...
Anyway, the reason I brought it all up, he smiled very broadly with a "can't confirm" when I mentioned the 18th, as if to confirm it. It was clear what he meant. He also mentioned that there would be a separate, premium Beats-enabled display in the Sprint Store, for the EVOLTE, to better show it and the audio capabilities of the device.
Gonna be a huge seller. I can barely wait till they light up LTE here in So. Cal.

correction for above, I counted four antenna connections on the body of the phone, but only saw three antennas in the plastic of the cover. I found that interesting.
