Logmein and that big 4.3" screen should be sweet. Not to mention Sling Player and Audible on Android, both coming soon, I hope.

im excited about getting my first android phone, high quality cell camera, and a phone that can shut up those iphone users
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme!!
Let's see, most excited about....
I currently own a Palm Pre. Waiting for this phone since the day it was announced and detailed.
I was down on the whole Android movement until the Evo was announced. Since then, I've soaked up every little bit of info and video footage on it that I can get my hands on, and now, I'm BURNING UP for this phone! The way I use my Pre, one thing that annoyed me is not being able to use voice AND data at once. Add to that the envy of being surrounded by friends with iPhones. (Ugh.) I feel the envy behind their eyes when I talk about the Evo... Now all I need is one to make the cycle complete!

What's not to love?
The giant screen, especially compared to my Hero. Froyo, over which I am jealously salivating as we speak. And the speed! Please, and thank you.

I'm mostly excited about finally having a better phone than all the guys at work with thier damn IPhones. First thing on the agenda is tether my 4g experience to thier slowG IPhones, LoL.
Peanut Butter and Crack Sandwich!
I like the: Built-in kickstand for hands-free viewing. Yay!

Win EVO
First off its not an Iphone. Nothing can beat Android. Hands down the best phone out. There are too many great features to pinpoint just one. I love every aspect of the EVO and would love the opportunity to win this phone. would be a great Fathers Day present for me.

Honestly, what gets me the most excited is the WIMAX. I mean, when people talk about 4G, they say it like it's speed of light fast. Sprint said that its WIMAX can provide speeds 3x faster than 3G. They said average download speeds will be around 4-5 Mbps and upload speeds of 1Mbps. Hearing it and seeing it written down is enough to amaze, but what about actual results? I know for a fact that claiming a phone has 4G speeds will get to people and it will sell, but I have to see 4G speeds congruent with what Sprint had said. Also, forcing people to pay the extra $10 a month seems a little extremist to me. I mean, if you live in an area with good 4G coverage, fine, it's ok. What about if you live in an area with no 4G coverage (or very poor 4G coverage for that matter) it just seems a tad unfair. Anyways, thanks for the shot at an EVO and good luck to all participants.
I love this device for the balance it strikes in terms of hardware and software(OS mostly), lifestyle-smartphone integration, and overall impact as a long-time, loyal Sprint customer.
In previous smartphones I've own, granted mostly WinMo, but there has always been a trade-off between the built-in hardware and the OS. Either not enough memory to quiclkly and efficiently run WinMo(wow, did I just use efficiently and WinMo in the same sentence?! lol) or no front-facing camera for video-conferencing, or sporadic program installation on SD(effective anyway). Even the 4.3" screen is more mated to the smartphone user's #1 playtime activity: web browsing. More to see, less scrolling and even flash(even if it's lite!) make for an overall enjoyable internet experience!
In today's world, our lives are constantly being "upgraded" through the various forms of social, internet and radio(music), television and film media outlets. Android provides the power to make integration of these outlets possible in the palm of your hand, anytime, anywhere. The open-sourced applications(Android Market) enhance this integration while small footprint(OS and apps) make it extremely quick to access information across these outlets. Android makes this device exactly what a smartphone should be: powerful, efficient, and intergrated.
I also love what this device represents for Sprint as an organization. I've been a customer for over 12 years and to see a device manufacturer like HTC build something this good for a company like Sprint(not GSM, nor #1) speaks volumes of the partnership between the two companies and the desire to have that continue. The outlook for me to remain a long-term and loyal Sprint customer is good!
The Evo represents an overall upgrade in daily lifestyle. From its well-mated hardware-software specifications to Android Market to Sprint 4g service, I look for this device to actually become more integrated in my life than any other smartphone I have ever owned.

For me, its a combination of features:
- 4G WiMax
- Mobile HotSpot
- Video Chat
Combining 4G with the mobile hotspot will change the way mobile computing is done. And throw in video chatting while on the move and you have an all-round winner.

Wifi Hotspot
This has to be the biggest and baddest feature. I will be able to to connect my iPad to it and surf the web for countless hours as I idly sit in traffic on NJ transit as I try to get home.
The huge screen is also quite awesome. Maybe I can charge other commuters to connect to the phone so they can share in some of my awesomeness.

I like the snapdragon processor, especially using a non-rooted Droid I wouldn't mind the speed increase.
