My sis has the Nexus One and she got her Froyo update. It is as reported, fast as hell, supports flash, save to memory card, etc.
The Shadow is suposed to be amazing. After seeing the Droid2, the Shadow will absolutely trounce it. I've been studying up on what all I will be able to do with this system and it will make most of my currnet solid state hardware obsolete.
We are talking about rooters cutting their internet and cable.

The next one will be called Gingerbread.
lol and on this note, I thought you were just trying to be a smart ass, but I just read about 3.0 being gingerbread. LOL Wow.
I love my HTC Evo 4G, I thought I would miss my HTC Touch Pro 2 keyboard but with all the features and the big screen, I am so glad I switched from AT&T to Sprint (and pay the early termination fee) just to get this phone.
Can't wait for Froyo.

About the battery, the new update last week certainly improved the battery life, don't know why but it did. And also, drain the battery one time and then fully charge it, that will also help the battery life. So I have no complaints with the battery now.

I have had better battery life since the update. I went ahead and purchased a seido case and a mugen extended battery. its 1800 maH. VERY pleased with the phone. I just wish i could find an app that would turn the phones mode to vibrate when holstered like the balckberries!
I think the EVO 4G looks amazing, though I heard the battery life is not great and the camera is not as good as the iPhone.
For people loosing battery power with the EVO phone. Buy 2 micro-USB cables from Fry's for $10. Leave 1 at work, leave 1 in your car. Buy the 2-in-1 USB car charger (its a cigarette charger and also for wall outlets at home) from Best Buy for $20. Power problem is solved.. =)
I use my radio, pandora, GPS, IM, Fring, Internet all day and I have no more issues with battery. I want to maximize its capability, I'm paying for the data plan right. If everything running means loosing battery power sooner than most users, then I'll adjust even if it means buying micro-usb cables for all my cars. Its just amazing how this phone became my secondary computer.

The automatic update messed-up my wifi. I cannot connect to any wifi. Did your update do anything negative to your device? No big deal as the 3G is still fast for me, but I want it to work if I want it. So I am trying to get a replacement because Sprint can't figure it out. lol.

I've only had my Evo for a few days, and I'm not yet happy with my batter life(coming from a blackberry that got 2+ days). I did order a bigger battery, which reading the comments, people seem somewhat happy with. I should get it soon, so we'll see:

There are also a few tricks to extend battery life that I did last night, so we'll see today how it is.
Yesterday I did about 6 hours....

Can you tether using this phone with your current plan or do you have to pay an additional $29/month to be able to tether?
Just an update. At this point I wouldn't recommend anyone buy this phone until this is fixed. I've done every tweak out there and the battery is simply horrible. With everything turned off, with an upgraded battery, and with not using the phone, it will last maybe 10 hours in standby. Major issue.
I might be returning mine.
