EVO 4G gets new firmware update: lots of app refreshes

No, for goodness' sake, it's not Gingerbread! Okay, now that we've gotten past that, Sprint just cut loose a new EVO 4G update that bundles updated versions of Telenav, visual voicemail, Sprint Zone, and Sprint TV, along with a sprinkling of crapware in the form of a new game trial. You've also got Blockbuster and Kindle apps on board, a new Scan Now widget that seems to assist with locating a 4G signal, and -- this is pretty awesome -- the addition of Swype, which means you'll no longer need to install the off-ROM Swype beta. Want the goods? Check in your phone's settings -- if it's not there now, you should see it shortly.
