Hi bob! I'm answering your msg dated 03:06 PM 7/30/2012:
How about the Samsung Galaxy S 3?
That's what the cool kids are getting.
Yeah, have seen that mentioned a lot. Is it still pretty new or been
around for a while? Too bad most phones seem to have the half life of
a may fly these days :( I think we were lucky to get nearly 2 years
out of the Evos.
What makes it so kewl?? :) Lots of phones out there...

Hubby and I both currently have rapidly aging HTC Evo 4G phones from
Sprint. They have served us both splendidly as our intro to
smartphones, but we now find ourselves at a point where we can now
upgrade to something new, as we got them on the upswing nearly 2
years ago. As we have a long time business account, we cannot change
from Sprint.
I am the resident techie of the family, and this model was originally
selected as not just a cell phone replacement but as a replacement
for my dying Palm TX, which was (like the Evo now) the repository of
my entire life :) I rarely use the phone functionality in favor of
the other apps, but do need it. Hubby is the opposite. He lives and
dies with his cell, and rarely uses his apps beyond email, news,
sports and weather. Mine typically runs out of phone space quickly
(even after moving stuff to SD), his has abundant space available all
the time. Mine is generally on the charger while I use it, his is
not, so it usually dies much faster than mine 'cause he forgets to
recharge it :) You get the idea I'm sure.
We got the same model to keep it simple keep them updated and
otherwise maintained (I do it for both), and I want to keep it that
way by again having the same phones, so it has to give me a good
experience as the 4g does now (Hubs will ignore most of that :) We do
not live in or near any flavor of a 4G area (although of course we
pay for the "privilege" of having a 4G phone), and rarely travel to
one, and to the best of our knowledge, it's probably never coming
here (too small an area). We still need cell phones and it has to fit
into his pocket, so we do not want any kind of tablet.
What's out there in the next 60 days or so that would be a good
replacement for the Evo 4G? Hopefully for under $250 apiece :) Does
not have to be an HTC, any comparable model would be fine.
TIA
