      Sprint HTC EV0 4G Breaks Sales Records

      by

      The folks at Sprint are probably smiling this morning after having a record breaking weekend with the Sprint HTC EVO 4G. Record sales and product outages have been reported for Sprint Customers wanting to get their hands on this device:

      The record pace of HTC EVO 4G sales led to temporary shortages of the device at some of the 22,000 sales locations across the United States, including Sprint retail stores, national retail partners including RadioShack, Best Buy and Walmart, and indirect dealers. Sprint and HTC are diligently working around the clock to increase inventory in all sales channels. Additional shipments are arriving in retail stores on a regular basis with many stores seeing daily deliveries.

      It is really good to see high end smartphone devices getting this much attention. If you remember the T-Mobile was also, and still is running on great sales and product shortages. So be patient for those of you still waiting and for those of you sproting your new EVO, drop us a comment and let us know first hand what you think!

      Got a press release after the break from Spring on their record weekend.

      Google to make cloudbased iTunes service. Let’s hope it doesn’t suck

      by

      One of my biggest gripes with Apple products (not their overarching and stupid philosophies about electronics as a company but products themselves) is their need to plug any portable device they sell you into a computer with iTunes.  Now I understand this is to make purchasing easier but iTunes, especially bundled with Quicktime, is just … Read more
