Latest rumor hint to August 21st as being the launch date for the Samsung Epic 4G
Sprint's Samsung Epic 4G is one handset that's planning to surprise many people when it's finally released, especially when launch dates keep on floating around pointing to different ones with nothing set in stone just yet. There's no arguing that the HTC EVO 4G is still providing the pin dropping network some much needed business, and they're probably stretching out that handset as much as they can right now before launching another 4G handset. However, the latest date to be looked at intently will be August 21st after new an Android Central forum member dished up some new information. Apparently Sprint dealers will be able to start placing orders for store inventory beginning on August 16th with actual sales commencing on August 21. Whichever way Sprint wants to sway the Epic 4G, it wouldn't surprise anyone for them to drill it straight to Verizon with their latest Motorola DROID 2 handset.
