I know that some say the Supersonic will be released between the 24th and the 26th. But is there any possibility that it will be shown in Austin on Monday?
I'll tell you on Tuesday...hehehehe!
LOL ME TOO. They will announce they are lighting the fire under sprints ass about the 2.1 release.
Where and when in Austin? I work in Austin.

I'm hoping for a demo of the supersonic. With us having the wimax infrastructure in place, we are a natural location to showcase. (maybe if we say this enough times it will come true )

Gingerman is a cool bar. I'd say I would meet you there but by the time I get downtown it's going to be close to 7:00. There may be a line to get in (in typical SXSW fashion). Doors open at 7 and the first people in get some pretty cool swag from what I've read. Race you to the HTC booth!
Ooo! Didn't think about the lines! I was planning on being downtown around 5. Maybe I'll just go grab my spot then....

If anything spectacular happens I will post while I'm there.
BTW, the giveaways that GDGT are giving for the first ones through the doors consist of t-shirts and i-phone cases. I may show up later than previously planned.
Come on now! With a little bit of exactosurgery and some ducktape, that Iphone case would fit your Hero like a glove! All you need is a little initiative. Well that, and the exactoknife and ducktape.....

Lol! I just think it's funny that every event I go to in Austin (FunFunFunFest comes to mind) has someone handing out crappy iphone cases. Maybe I should stock up and sell them on ebay to unsuspecting Jobs-heads.
If i make it
fury1217(at)gmail dot com I probably wont make it to the bar. I have to leave work from 4 points and run downtown during rush hour I just need to remember to turn it(latitude) on.
Meh on the iWhat cases.... really I didnt even see APPLE on the list or AT&T.

My sentiments exactly.
Quoted from the Facebook message I received:
"Just a reminder that our event is tonight, look forward to seeing everyone! The event is all-ages and open to everyone, so please feel free to bring your friends.
We're also giving away a couple of hundred gdgt iPhone cases and t-shirts, but you'll have to get there early to get one!"
T-shirt could be OK if it's black.
Nah. They're prolly iShirts. Which means pink. Or didn't you know that pink is the new black?
someone ask htc if their gonna fix the dust under the screen defect on the hero's!

well theres two meetings one on the 31st, and the 1st. sprint always has 2-3 meetings just incase you can't make it to the first one. very much common for sprint our last big meeting i missed the first two meeting because of school, and had to catch the third one.
Sprint CS says the Nexus One is slated for a late Spring release..Whenever that is..LoL..
the N1 will come before the evo, that's a certainty. id say nexus in june and the evo in late summer / early fall.

any idea when this meeting is supposed to happen today?
I think since it's a marketing promotion, it will have to do more with 4G and updates to its plans, rather than new phones. But I wouldn't mind if I was wrong.

hahaha! my favorite sprint moment on this seasons 24 was a few episodes back when Chloe pulled out the sprint 4G router and they held like a 15-20 second shot on it while she talked about how she could setup a seperate network with lightning fast speeds. such obviously product "whoring" it was just hilarious!

Gotcha!
I completely didn't notice the Evo on "24" last night. I do remember the mobile hotspot pitch they did a few episodes ago. The only time I've seen Sprint blatantly advertise the Evo, was on Oprah's "No Phone Zone" special ... and by "blatant" I mean, they zoomed in on the phone as she was showing people how to text in their pledges. The name was never mentioned but the did an extreme close-up of the phone and you could see the word "Evo" on the phone.
I will never understand why Sprint didn't use "Survivor" to promote the Evo. Sprint has some sort of marketing contract with the reality show "Survivor"...Survivor uses nothing but Sprint products and they endorse Sprint all the time. One of the episodes close to this seasons finale, they surprised the last group of castaways with video messages from home ... guess what phone they used???...a friggin' PALM PRE!!! They touted the hell out of that antiquated Pre. I couldn't believe it. That would have been the PERFECT opportunity for them to at least get some buzz surrounding the Evo. But, instead, they choose to try and boost some phone almost year old. FAIL!

Sprint's Kyocera Echo dual-screen Android phone announced, we go hands-on (update)
By Nilay Patel posted Feb 7th 2011 6:30PM
Hands-On
Sprint promised us an "industry first" at its event today, and it certainly delivered: check out the Kyocera Echo, the first dual-screen Android phone. That's right, dual-screen -- that's two 3.5-inch 480 x 800 displays which can be unfolded and used as a single 4.7-inch 960 x 800 surface. The screens are connected by a slick sliding liquid-metal hinge that Kyocera's filed several patents on -- the phone can be closed and used like a regular single-screen phone, unfolded all the way, or propped up into the faux-laptop configuration shown above. Under the hood there's a 1GHz second-gen Snapdragon running Android 2.2 -- we'll forgive the older software because Kyocera had to do extensive customization to add dual-screen support to seven core apps like the browser, email, and messaging. The seven optimized apps can be run on each screen individually so you can have the browser up top and email below, and several of them include useful full-dual-screen views as well. There's also a new dual-screen app manager, which is brought up by tapping the two screens simultaneously. Unfortunately, third party apps can't be run in any of the new modes and just fill the entire display for now -- Kyocera and Sprint say an SDK is coming shortly.

Sounds pretty cool. Can't wait to see it.
Yea I hope not

Even tho it doesn't really sound too appealing to me... I am really glad it isn't some form of a tablet. I feel like smartphones are taking a backseat to tablets and I can;t figure out why in the world they are so popular.
I thought Kyocera only made cheap prepaid phones?
Meh. If that's the big announcement I'm underwhelmed.

I just hope the people who are overly complaining stay that way. One thing that blows my mind is when someone complains before they even see the product. Now don't get me wrong I know everyone want a evo 2, but nothing wrong with sprint trying something new out. And to those threatening to leave your contract because of this, lol like people haven't said this before and got raped with no lube by the next carrier you went to - give me a break.
[update] This phone is horrid, i tried to give them the benefit of the doubt, and i guess you can't do that with sprint (my first time signing up with them in sept ember), oh well wait for MWC.

Good luck to you man, I know how bad jail sucks. Best piece of advice I can give you- don't drop the soap
hahaha its washoe county.
A. They probably don't have soap.
B. 80 of people in there are weekend warriors for possession of marijuana.
C. I pity the fool that tries to give me a log ride if I were to drop the soap.
Good luck m8.... you'll be fine. Just remember, the first thing you do is find the biggest Guy that's in your cell block/pod... what ever they call them now.
Hit him square on the chin... this can have 2 outcomes. Both a plus!!!
1. He drops like a bag of bricks, you'll get your own cell for a bit and no one will f with you.
2. He smiles, drops you like a bag of bricks, you'll get your own bed in the hospital wing and people will think your crazy and have some kind of death wish.
Win... Win... plus you'll have a great story to tell either way, right?

I know my way around a jail a bit. So no internet, listen to the tank boss, stick to your own kind white on white, black with black, etc... always brush your teeth before morning chow or you will get a beatdown. Lastly find out which toilets are for what. One will be for pissing, one for ****ting, and one for washing clothes. Don't mess that up. Good luck.
The EVO you wish you had
Why not show up with a bondsman and skip jail until the court date?
Pay it in full you get it all back if you show up to court.
Better do those taxes with turbotax. You'll get your refund in a week so you can pay those fines.
Take your Evo and disassemble it and smuggle it in your anus like some people do. You can also train a pigeon to drop it off in the yard.
