Those of you in the market for a new Android phone from HTC are probably saving up your cash to get your hands on the HTC EVO 4G which will be launching on Sprint’s network in a little over a week. With a new two year contract, the EVO 4G will be setting you back $199.99, but you might consider setting aside a little extra cash for the accessories that HTC is looking to pair with the EVO. New images show that Best Buy is planning on carrying a Micro HDMI docking station for the EVO which would allow you to sue the EVO 4G’s Micro HDMI output to connect your phone to your HDTV.
Reports from PCMag show that there may be some incompatibility between the HTC EVO 4G’s HDMI 1.4 technology and older HDMI connections (some TV’s only recognized a 480p signal instead of 1080p). Also, don’t be surprised if apps like Sprint TV simply don’t work over HDMI. Last week at Google I/O, we had a long talk with the team from mobitv (Spint TV is a rebranded version of their software) and they mentioned that their app will not work over HDMI due to content licensing agreements.
Pricing and release date on the HTC EVO 4G Micros HDMI dock are still not available, though I’m sure we will be seeing more information once the June 4th launch date for the EVO 4G arrives.
