Posted by Eric Savitz
Sprint Nextel (S) has a long waiting list of customers for the new HTC EVO 4G smart phone, which it unveiled to some fanfare at the recent CTIA trade show, the company told Reuters. Sprint will offer the service on the WiMax network run by Clearwire (CLWR), which is majority-owned by Sprint.

The company also said it is in talks with electronics companies, including General Electric (GE) and Samsung, about embedding WiMax connections into consumer devices, including devices like e-readers, cameras, washing machines and medical equipment.
