Well, my friends at Sprint came through in a big way for me today. The just announced Sprint HTC EVO Shift showed up on my doorstep. I have had the phone, which is scheduled to be released commercially on Sprint’s network on January 9, for only a few hours, but it is already quickly becoming my favorite Android based phone. When I reviewed the HTC EVO, I had two main complaints.The phone was just too big for me to easily utilize, and there was no hard keyboard. I am just not someone who likes to use an onscreen keyboard anymore than I have to. So, stay tuned. We will be checking out these features and a whole lot more in the coming weeks. In the meantime, here are the complete specs to tide you over.
