New HTC smartphone hits FCC with Verizon bands and a WiMax antenna

[Wantec]

Today a new smartphone hit the FCC with Verizon's CDMA bands and a "WiMax" antenna on it. And if you follow the link you'll see a lot of reports are listed as "revised". In "RF Report TNE revised" if you scroll down to the revision history, you'll see it was first done in September and then on Nov 10, it was revised to add a WiMax antenna.

Maybe I misunderstood the terminology, but I thought Sprint was using WiMax and Verizon was using LTE. And I checked the CDMA bands which match other Verizon phones but don't match the Evo's bands. Is this a possible sighting for the DInc HD or is it for another phone?

Yeah I thought that only sprint used WiMax also, strange.....

WiMax is Sprint...

WiMax is Sprint...

Right which is why I'm confused. The RF reports use the freq bands that Verizon seems to use

And just to add to the intrigue, this new phone is model number PG06100 and the Evo is PC36100. Possibly a stretch, but does anyone have any info on how HTC does their model numbers?

It is the EVO Shift

Run this site thru Google Translator. It is the EVO Shift for Sprint:
WiMAX???HTC EVO Shift 4G??????FCC??!!?Blog of Mobile!!??????????

Sorry for the let-down. But who cares about this phone?

I don't think he meant you specifically, more of looking for anyone in particular who knows all the radios & frequencies stuff better
