Sprint's record breaking HTC EVO 4G is apparently sold out across the United States, with more shipments expected later in the week.
The EVO 4G broke Sprint's one-day sales record for a phone, with an estimated 320,000 units sold on June 4th, the day the device launched.
More importantly for Sprint, the numbers crush launch day sales of the Palm Pre, which launched to fanfare last year but quickly faded. EVO demand continues to remain strong.
Sprint, Best Buy, Radio Shack, Wal-Mart, Amazon and many others have all reported being sold out of the smartphone.
The next batch of phones are set aside for those that pre-ordered, notes Sprint.
The HTC EVO 4G boasts a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, 1GB ROM, 512MB RAM, a 1500 mAh battery and an 8GB microSD card. The device has a 4.3-inch WVGA capacitive multi-touchscreen display (with pinch to zoom), Android 2.1 with Sense UI, Google Search, Google Maps, Google Talk, Gmail, Google Goggles, YouTube, Google Calendar syncing, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and 3G/4G Mobile Hotspot capability for connecting up to eight Wi-Fi enabled devices.
Additionally, the device has GPS with Sprint Navigation, a Digital compass, Bluetooth 2.1, a 3.5mm headset jack, FM radio, Amazon MP3 store, Qik video sharing, HDMI out a kickstand for hands-free viewing, an 8MP autofocus camera with dual LED flash (and 720p HD video recording) and an additional 1.3MP front-facing camera for video conferencing.
The device costs $200 with contract.
