1,600 Radio Shack locations will open at 6AM local time on Friday, June 4th for the long-awaited launch of the EVO 4G WiMax Android device from Sprint. To reward those customers that pre-ordered from the store, the company will be giving those customers an additional 15% discount on all accessories purchased with the device as well as setting aside a number of EVO 4G units for those that did not pre-order from Radio Shack.
Along with the above, select Radio Shack locations within WiMax coverage areas will feature EVO 4G Experience Centers that will let prospective and interested customers see for themselves what the EVO 4G is capable of. The device will be $199.99 after new agreement or with qualified upgrade.
Radio Shack does point out that those interested in attending the early opening for the launch call ahead to confirm the specific store is holding a launch event.
