Samsung Epic 4G to be released August 20th


Over the past 24 hours, Samsung has hinted that its upcoming release of the Epic 4G, which will be carried on Sprint, is set to be released on August 20th. This rumor is supported by the fact that the Sprint webpage for the Epic has now gone live. Some notable specs of the upcoming Epic is that is will feature a 1Ghz Hummingbird processor, a 4 inch Super AMOLED screen, and a slideout QWERTY keyboard.

This is big news for those who want to experience Sprint's 4G network, but do not want to part with a physical keyboard. Unfortuanately, the Epic 4G will debut with Android 2.1, and not 2.2 Froyo like hoped, but that is expected to change with an over the air update within the coming months.

In addition to this, Sprint has also announced that they have rolled out 4G coverage in Delaware, Florida, and Michigan, as well as expanding coverage in California. Hopefully Sprint continues to stay busy rolling out coverage to more and more customers nationwide.
