Sprint and HTC offering 10 free Evo 4G phones

Thursday, April 22nd, 2010

Today Sprint and HTC announced a contest to win 1 of 10 HTC Evo 4G phones to real people to use and help spread the word about the phone.  I, of course, had to enter seeing as how I’ve already sung its praises.

Here’s my entry to win one of the phones:

So there I was, slogging away at my unending 9-5 job when suddenly I hear a heavenly glow emanating from my computer.  Intrigued I feel my hand, of it’s own volition, clicking over to Engadget’s coverage of this new ‘phone’, the HTC Evo 4G, which doesn’t sound like it’s possible or even real.  I devoured the spec sheet, each line seeming more incredulous than the last and making my tech-saliva start to froth.

Having  heard of this amazing new super-phone that was rumored to be coming from Sprint and HTC, I was already eager to upgrade my phone to just about anything newer.  But when I saw and believed that THIS was going to be my new phone, I knew I had been a good boy this year and was going to receive my more than ample reward.

Being the sole computer programmer for my company, I am THE person responsible for ensuring hundreds of people can access the data that they require to do their jobs.  It is essential that I can update my FB, twitter & foursquare statuses lightning fast so that I can perform at my peak efficiency.  Add in the ability to video conference from a handheld device to keep all my bosses happy and you already have some steep requirements for a new phone.  And finally having the awesome network coverage of Sprint while on the road to be on call 24/7 to be able to respond when needed to outages is what keeps me skinny, paid and happy.

So that’s my entry, hopefully I’ll win.
