However, it looks like we can bring you a few more details, now that the HTC EVO Shift 4G has made an appearance on the Walmart website. Not only does the site feature numerous images of the new handset, but it also provides a more detailed list of specs for the upcoming smartphone.

As stated on the Walmart.com website, the HTC EVO Shift 4G – which according to Florin over at unwiredview.com is expected to be launched at this week’s CES 2011 event – will run on the Android 2.2 Froyo OS, rather than the Gingerbread OS (which many have probably hoped for).

It’s also been confirmed that the upcoming smartphone will feature an 8-megapixel camera on the rear and 1GB of internal memory. The only thing that appears to be a little confusing is the screen size, as it looks like it is either going to be a 3.7-inch or a 4.3-inch capacitive touch screen.

You can view the full list of specs via the Walmart.com website. What do you think of the HTC EVO Shift 4G handset? Do you think you will be buying one?

As reported from Engadget, a new picture has been uploaded courtesy of Phone Arena, and it is the first time that the device has actually been shown in the open.

We’ve already had a brief idea of how the handset looks, but this latest pic reveals that the handset will feature a stylish chrome trim which you can see around the edges below. We also get a close-up look at the unique slide-out QWERTY keyboard, which judging by the pic, looks like it’s sporting a blue background.

With the appearance aside, Engadget also state that the EVO Shift 4G will be carrying with it a 800Mhz processor, which you may be slightly disappointed about considering that other manufacturers are now looking at dual-core processors – like the recently announced LG Optimus 2X with a dual-core Tegra 2 chip.

Take a look at the image above and let us know your thoughts on it. Are you interested in the EVO Shift 4G or not? Are you surprised that it may only come with a 800Mhz processor?

As reported from Engadget, we’re still no closer to finding out the full name of this device, as it still is being tagged as the HTC Knight, and also the HTC Speedy.

Firstly, check out this picture below – this is meant to be what the slide-out keyboard looks like. We’re not sure about the color scheme though and that rather striking silver trackpad – what do you think about it?

Further details from the guys over at Android Central have revealed a potential release date for the device – January 9th. As for the authenticity of this picture, it has been debated whether or not this is a photoshop. We think it’s real, as the overall design looks a lot similar to these pictures of the HTC Knight – highly likely to be the same device.

Take a look at Engadget’s report and let us know your thoughts on the pictures.

We’ll forgive you if you haven’t heard too many details about the HTC Knight, as this handset is also known by two other codenames, the HTC Speedy and the HTC EVO Shift 4G.

Sprint has still not made the handset official, as they seemingly prefer to sit back and let everyone speculate on the handset and what the final name will be.

The good news, is that the guys over at HTC Pedia Shop have managed to obtain some new photos of the handset, some pretty colorful ones too. Android OS aside, it looks like HTC are a big fan of Apple’s iPhone 4 bumpers and have decided to go with the bright color characteristic for the HTC Knight as well.

If you head over to the HTC Pedia Shop website, you’ll be able to see the device in Black, Blue (two varieties) and also bright pink. Take a look and let us know your thoughts on the handset. If you’re a Sprint customer reading this, let us know if you plan to upgrade your current handset for a Knight / Speedy / EVO Shift 4G.

According to this report from Engadget, it has been confirmed that HTC’s team of lawyers trademarked the name ‘HTC EVO Shift 4G’ during the last part of October.

The trademark was filed under ‘mobile phones, smartphones and cellular phones’ so it effectively rules out the possibility of this device being a Tablet or something similar.

First of all, what are your thoughts on the name itself? We have to say, it doesn’t that right feel about it at the moment, but like most other unusual names, it is sure to grow as time goes on.

Could the Shift 4G be the new name for the HTC EVO 2? Let us know your thoughts on this one, we’ll update you if we hear anything else.
