			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday we heard that Verizon won&#8217;t be carrying the Galaxy S II but instead replacing it with the Nexus Prime. Now, we have more news regarding the Galaxy S II. The Sprint version of the device called Epic Touch will be announced today and according to FCC listing on the Galaxy S II dimension which discovered by Tommy Thomson from Google+, the device packed with a 4.5-inch touchscreen display.</p>
<p><a href="http://cdn.slashphone.com/sp/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/galaxyss-540x508.png"><img src="http://cdn.slashphone.com/sp/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/galaxyss-540x508.png" alt="" title="" width="540" height="508" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-18613" /></a></p>
<p><span id="more-18611"></span></p>
<p>On top of the display upgrade, the device will have a 1.5GHz processor right out of the box. Some of us might prefer bigger screen but some might think it&#8217;s too much and prefer the original version display of the Galaxy S II. We can&#8217;t wait to see the device very soon in U.S. </p>

<p><span id="more-18549"></span></p>
<p>There&#8217;s big possibility the device will hit Sprint. The EVO Design 4G will features as the following:</p>

-Bluetooth 3.0 &#038; WiFI 802.11 b/g/n<br />

<p>&#8220;Nexus S 4G shows the strong commitment Sprint has to Android, and when combined with our 4G network capabilities, it gives customers the option of a pure Google experience,&#8221; said Fared Adib, vice president – Product Development, Sprint. &#8220;As the first 4G smartphone with Android 2.3, Nexus S 4G delivers on the promise of the advanced data capabilities of 4G to deliver an incredible Web browsing experience, offers quick and easy access to future Android updates and access to the services built into Google Voice.&#8221;</p>

The 4-inch Contour Display features a curved design for a more comfortable look and feel in the user&#8217;s hand or along the side of the face. It also offers a screen that is bright with higher color contrast, meaning colors are incredibly vibrant and text is crisp at any size and produces less glare than on other smartphone displays when outdoors, so videos, pictures and games look their best and the sun won&#8217;t wash them out.</p>
<p>Sprint Nexus S 4G customers will be among the first to receive Android software upgrades and new Google mobile apps. In many cases, the device will get the updates and new apps as soon as they are available.</p>

<p>Nexus S 4G from Google will be available exclusively from Sprint this spring for $199.99 with a new two-year service agreement or eligible upgrade (taxes not included) in all Sprint retail channels, including the Web (www.sprint.com) and Telesales (1-800-SPRINT1), as well as select national retailers.</p>
<p>Sprint Nexus S customers also will be able to easily use their current Sprint wireless phone number as their Google Voice number without having to port their number, avoiding porting charges and potential service disruptions. Google Voice makes it easy for people to manage and access most of their voice-based communication. It lets users manage up to six different phones through one number with intelligent call routing and advanced features like call screening, blocking and recording.</p>
<p>Now Sprint subscribers can use their Sprint number across their office, home and wireless phones, and personalize settings so calls from friends ring their wireless device and home phone, while calls from the boss only ring at the office. Google Voice users can receive transcribed voicemails and read or listen to them online. They can also read, send and search text messages and call logs online at www.google.com/voice.</p>
<p>Nexus S 4G requires activation on one of Sprint&#8217;s Everything Data plans, plus a required $10 Premium Data add-on charge for smartphones. Sprint&#8217;s Everything Data plan with Any Mobile, AnytimeSM includes unlimited Web, texting and calling to and from any mobile in America while on the Sprint Network, starting at just $69.99 per month plus required $10 Premium Data add-on charge – a savings of $39.99 per month versus Verizon&#8217;s comparable plan with unlimited talk, text and Web (excluding Verizon&#8217;s Southern California plan; pricing excludes surcharges and taxes).</p>
<p>Sprint customers get more with unlimited data plans on the Sprint Network. Sprint offers real simplicity, value and savings versus competitors, making it easy for customers to get the most out of their phones without using a calculator to tally up costs or worrying about how much data they&#8217;ve used.</p>
<p>Sprint Everything Data plans qualify for automatic enrollment in the Sprint PremierSM loyalty program3. Existing Sprint customers can switch to an Everything Data plan without extending their service agreement. New lines of service require a two-year service agreement.</p>
<p>As the first national wireless carrier to test, launch and market 4G technology, Sprint made history by launching 4G in Baltimore in September 2008. As the first national wireless carrier to test, launch and market 4G technology, Sprint is America&#8217;s Favorite 4G Network4. Sprint currently offers 4G service in 71 markets in 28 states.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This really isn&#8217;t new. In fact, we might even consider this to be beaten to death. But, the truth is, the United States is still accustomed to their unlimited data plans. Truth be told, the news from AT&amp;T to cap everyone to 2GB of data on their smartphones (and tablets) was pretty disastrous for the company, at least in terms of customer feedback. But, that&#8217;s not stopping the largest wireless carrier in the United States from talking up 4G, and the fact that they&#8217;re probably going to have to change their data plans.</p>
<p><img src="http://cdn.slashphone.com/sp/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Verizon-Wireless-logo1-580x229.png" alt="" width="580" height="229" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-10294" /></p>
<p><span id="more-10293"></span></p>
<p>John Killian is Verizon&#8217;s Chief Financial Officer (CFO), so we can safely assume that this guy knows what he&#8217;s talking about when it comes to money, in any facet. Speaking to <em>BusinessWeek</em> on Friday, Killian said, &#8220;We will probably need to change the design of our pricing where it will not be totally unlimited, flat rate.&#8221; Tiered pricing isn&#8217;t a new thing for wireless carriers around the world, and it&#8217;s actually not all that new for the United States, either. Up until the tidal wave that was unlimited plans, we had tiered pricing here for quite some time. But, everyone got used to unlimited, and now that we&#8217;re on the brink of another change, customers can&#8217;t seem to grasp such a &#8220;sudden move.&#8221;</p>
<p>Killian pointed out that owners of the Motorola DROID and the Droid Incredible, two of the most popular smartphones on Big Red&#8217;s network, are using somewhere between 600MB and 800MB of data every month. As of right now, there&#8217;s about 17 percent of smartphone users on the Verizon Wireless network. Killian projects that by some time in the future, smartphone users will account for 70 to 80 percent of users. Right now, Sprint&#8217;s first 4G device is running on unlimited <em>everything</em>, and it doesn&#8217;t seem to be crashing Sprint&#8217;s network. But, yes, user base will matter, and there&#8217;s a lot more people on Verizon than Sprint. However, do you think  unlimited data needs to get wiped out completely? Or would you be willing to pay an &#8220;extra&#8221; premium to have it?</p>
