Netflix just went live on the Android Market and loading it on my Nexus One it's pretty awesome, just really slow.
Hopefully they push out some speed fixes sometime soon. https://market.android.com/details?id=com.netflix....

Just wanted to show everyone a really cool deal. If you go on ebay and search for Evo accessory kits, a whole bunch of cheap kits come up.
I got one for 8 bucks that has a case, car and home charger, usb, and screen protector. For what I paid, it is a great kit. You can find similarly priced batteries as well (I got 2 2000mAh for $16). Just something to look at.

I am an Information Systems Manager and I've been testing some products on my HTC EVO that will allow me to remotely control a user's computer if my…
staff and I need to provide any type of remote support. One of the simplest and most cost effective solutions thus far is a product called Team Viewer. Non-commercial use is free right now until the end of month when it might become a paid app. It does require installing Team Viewer on the target PC and installation of the app on the mobile device. My stamp of approval is on this piece of software.

Does the EVO have Android 2.1 or 2.2?
According to HTC.com it has 2.1 but according to Sprint.com it has 2.2.
Does anyone know if the latest update enabled standard Bluetooth HID support? If so, I'll drive out to the office to get my keyboard.
I don't want to waste the trip just to take a chance, though.

recently upgrated to evo...after reading numerous reviews...
purchased bigger battery/door same time as purchase of phone, however, Q1: can't seem to find any snap on case Q2: does powermat support bigger battery
My keyboard woes are over (hopefully)!
I finally had it with the terrible virtual keyboard that comes stock on this thing and decided to take my chances with something form the Market and hope and pray it isn't a keylogger in disguise. So, I downloaded Full Keyboard by Haily Lin and it is great! Granted, I haven't used it for very long yet, but I did manage to send a long test SMS without having to use the backspace key even once to fix a typo. Oh, glorious day! Maybe now I can finally start to love this phone. :) If my...

What are everyone's favorite Live Wallpapers beyond the stock ones? I've thoroughly enjoyed the Light Grid Live.
The free version is adequate enough to get you by, and the Pro version offers a lot more customization options. Would love to hear what everyone else is finding.

It feels like an entirely new phone now.
So we got Froyo a little while ago, and after yesterday's update (3.29.651.5), scrolling across the home menus, web browser (especially noticeable with Google Reader), photo/video gallery, etc. feels a lot smoother and snappier now. Perhaps it's due to the 30fps cap fix. http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2010/09/22/htc-evo-... http://www.engadget.com/2010/09/22/sprint-outs-evo... Also, with 4G...

I was able to test drive this phone for a week and it's a really sweet phone. The low battery life took me aback though.
I couldn't use this as a primary business phone, though if HTC were to design an easy-to-pop back for it, I think carrying around an extra battery would make this phone nearly ideal.

Used a Pre for one year and now have had an EVO for a month: LOVE my EVO! Not going to repeat all the superlatives to Techies that know it all...BUT...
if a non-techie asked me for a recomendation for a modern phone, I'd tell them to grab an iPhone or a Pre. I believe Apple still has the "best" UI and even Palm's WebOS is much more user friendly then Android is today. And what little I've seen of Phone7, it will also be a better UI then Froyo. But I love the choices!
Avoid the Rocketfish case from BestBuy.
We bought 2 of these here at work because they looked great in the package, and feel decent enough. They even make it easier to get the phone out of a pocket, but the design is seriously flawed in that the areas that cover buttons have insets to make room for the buttons and it ends up making the buttons almost impossible to use. The EVO power and volume buttons are hard enough to get to as it is, but this magnifies at least tenfold. Button presses require fingernails with this, and forget...
