Sprint, yes Sprint, just raised the bar when it comes to Android handsets by announcing the HTC EVO. It runs Android 2.1, can connect to Sprints 3G/4G network, can share its WiFi connection with up to 8 device, has a 1Ghz Snapdragon processor, a 4.3-inch 800×480 touchscreen, an 8 megapixel camera with 720p video capabilities (there’s also a 1.3mp forward facing camera), 1GB of built-in RAM, FM radio, 3.5mm headphone jack, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR with A2DP support, WiFi, compass, g-sensor, microSD card slot and an HDMI port to share your media on a connected HDTV.
