In case you took a pass on that Sprint-branded GNex or the LG Viper 4G in order to wait it out for HTC’s EVO 4G LTE, well, now’s the time to get your wallet ready and unleash the cash. As promised, The Now Network has the LTE-friendly EVO priced at $199.99 (50 bucks less on Wirefly) with a beloved two-year contract, while those ineligible for an upgrade will have to shell out around $550. That being said, chances are you won’t get to surf those Long Term Evolution waves when you get device, but at least you’ll be all set once the rollout finally commences. While Sprint’s yet to give an official release date, Wirefly (somewhat reliable in the past) does say the ICS / Sense 4 slab will be shipping on May 18th. Be sure to hit either of the source links below to get your pre-order on.

Update: And just like that, Wirefly’s May 18th date has mysteriously vanished. What does it mean?
