HTC EVO Shift 4G according to Radio Shack will cost $149
So the unreleased EVO Shift 4G — an HTC EVO 4G with a smaller 3.6-inch screen, 3G/4G WiMAX, and a slide-out QWERTY — was just recently spotted in a RadioShack catalog. It seemed to be priced at $149 on a 2-year contract and $449 without. We (and by that, I mean me) would probably go for this over the Epic 4G, considering it uses Sense UI and not the awful Touchwiz 3.0 user interface overlay, meaning it would probably make more sense.

Would you like some apps with that bacon? Apparently, two sites dedicated to tracking down the amount of Windows Phone 7 apps available report they’ve neared 5,000, and as usual, the reliable AndroidLib reports a total of 200,000k apps in the Android Market. Keep in mind you tech elite readers, that we’ve been hurt by fake statistics, and even Google pitching in and stating they had less apps than AndroidLib had reported before. Take this with a small grain of salt (on top of your salty bacon) and use these numbers as an overall look into how many applications are available for both platforms.
At first, “meh” was stated quite a few times before writing this, so give me the credit for actually committing to posting this (just kidding). The Samsung Galaxy Player will be just like the Galaxy S that many have come to love, except with no cellular radios installed. For an unannounced price and release date, you’d get a 1GHz (Hummingbird?) processor, 4-inch WVGA touchscreen (LCD, not Super AMOLED), SoundAlive audio enhancement technology, something called T-DMB, dual cameras, HD video playback support, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0 and — wait for it — finally, Android 2.2, hopefully with 2.3 Gingerbread on its way. Speaking of all of that, imagine how much hacking would be possible with clean slate like this?
