It's more than surprising to find retailers, whether it be online or store ones, to be the first offer pre-orders on devices that have yet to be officially announced to the world. Naturally, it's not all that uncommon to see things like this happen, but it comes out of left field to surprise many people out there.
Most recently, the HTC EVO Shift 4G has been making the rounds as Best Buy has started to receive accessory shipments for the upcoming device. However, Amazon is surely to surprise many as the beloved Android powered smartphone made its way onto their web site. Now even though you can't place a pre-order for the device just yet, it provides a few details and a 2-year on-contract price of $199.99. And for those who prefer the no-contract route, just expect to dish out $499.99 for this bad boy.
As we get closer to CES, it's only going to get more interesting to find out exactly when we'll all see this handset – but so far, all eyes point at a speculated January 9th launch date.
