Upgrading from Evo to Epic or wait?

This morning I dropped my EVO again and the screen finally cracked. I am deciding if I should just get a new phone. I don't mind paying retail for it but it has to be Sprint. Is Epic a worthy phone to upgrade to from EVO? I like the screen and better processing power, but I don't care for the physical keyboard. What are some of new Google phone that will come to Sprint? Should I just wait for one of those?

As is, the cracked EVO is still usable.

Digital Trends think that the HTC EVO 4G is the better handset, with the device having a ‘better camera’, lower price, a larger screen and better connectivity options.

I like this site and read it often, take it for what its worth.

I would tend to agree based on the fact that the Samsung has a pull out keyboard which I wouldn't want and adds unnecessary bulk. However, I also think the Samsung looks better made. I don't know anyone who has the Epic but I have a few friends with the EVO and it just looks cheap and "plasticey" to me. But I kind of feel that way toward all HTC devices and I'm a little biased. If I was on sprint and I refused to switch carriers I would go in and get the Epic, use it for the 30 days or whatever Sprint will let you use it for - and if you don't like it as much go back to the EVO. Pretty simple really, you already know how you feel about the EVO so it should be easy for you to decide which you like better. You might know within 1-2 days even.

I love the Epic. Granted a solid keyboard is one of the biggest selling points for me (and the Epic has the best keyboard I've used outside of the Touch Pro 2). The screen is phenomenal. I was coming from the HD2 - the same screen as the Evo - and its like night and day. Seriously, the Epic's screen is just awesome.
