Was there even hype for this phone? I see commercails for it for like a week, and then I see its been discontinued? I never thought that it would be a failure so early, but maybe the new iphone 4 killed any potential this phone had.

Did someone say iPhone...sweet they're the best with all the apps and 'wifi's' hehe

The funny thing is that I hear the iPhone is night and day better than the HTC EVO. I.E. It lasts another night and another day on the one charge when comparing them out of the box.

It isnt. Apple screwed up majorly with its design. The whole antenna band thing that was supposed to make signal lose a thing of the past drops more calls then the original iPhone. This issue could have easily been solved too. Just put a thin layer of a polymer or ever the crap that's on Blu-ray Discs onto the metal band, but no they released a product where the metal antenna is exposed allowing electrons dispersed from human hands to interfere with it.

 

This is also why every other cell phone manufacturer is making fun of them about this.
