Ever since Google unveiled Gingerbread a couple of weeks ago, many Android owners have been waiting (im)patiently on the edge of their seats, wondering just when the update would come to their handset.  EVO 4G owners, your time still hasn't come, but you are getting a maintenance update!  Update version 3.70.651.1 is being pushed over the air to EVOs as I type, and includes the following enhancements/bug fixes/goodies:

• Blockbuster (including WM DRM 10)
• Kindle eReader
• Preloaded try/buy video game: NOVA from Gameloft
• Sprint Zone update
• Latest Telenav
• Latest Visual Voicemail Application
• Latest Sprint TV application
• SWYPE keyboard
• Scan Now Widget for 4G

It may not be Android 2.3, but getting any update is better than nothing, right?  Unfortunately, this one packs a game demo in with all of the improvements that is likely impossible to remove without rooting your handset.  You know what they say: you've got to take the bad with the good sometimes.  EVO owners, be sure to let us know when you get the update and what you think about it, ok?  We're all ears.
