If you are one of the many waiting for the 4G version of the Galaxy S then you may be happy to know that Sprint’s second 4G handset is probably landing in August, possibly on or before the 20th. The launch date is based off the observation that the Epic 4G is scheduled to debut on Samsung’s Galaxy S On Demand Live Show website on August 20th. Both the Vibrant and the Captivate episodes debuted on or after the handset’s respective launch dates, so we would expect this trend to continue with the Epic 4G.

Samsung also updated it’s Twitter status on Friday stating: “the Sprint Epic 4G is arriving in a few weeks. It’s the 4G #Galaxy S”. Although it isn’ta solid confirmation, the two pieces seem to both point toward an August launch for the highly anticipated 4G handset. Don’t forget, that the ROOT will most likely work with the Sprint variation of the Galaxy S as well, so that’s another bit of good news for those seeking to buy the phone.
