EVO 4G getting Gingerbread on June 6th (or Friday if you’re impatient)

Well, this was inevitable. After Sprint’s website snafu outing its Android 2.3 intentions for the EVO 4G , we’ve received evidence that points to June 6th as its release date. Better yet, if you’re willing to manually check for its availability, you might even find a happy surprise this Friday. In addition to Gingerbread, users will find SMS and Gmail fixes, along with a tweak to the phone’s power management software. Hopefully you’ve got WiMAX, because this update is coming over-the-air. Should everything go according to plan, users will have less than a week to say goodbye to Froyo . It’s a trusty companion for sure, but that spicy aroma is quite enticing. Hit the break for some corroborating clues.
