Rumors of HTC Touch HD2 have been greatly exaggerated

10.09.2009 | HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) rumors

Rumors of a new phone by HTC, operated by Google Android OS have been greatly exaggerated. New phone would've been called HTC Touch HD2, but folks from WM Power User are sceptical and think that there will be no HTC Touch HD2.

According to new info, first rumors of HTC Touch HD2 appeared on a British website called Register Hardware, but without any proof or official info. Maybe someone just decided to profit from unaware believers, but now we know, that there will be no Touch HD2 for sure - there is no mentioning of it in official HTC roadmaps. The only successor to Touch HD is HTC Leo.

Don't let such websites fool you with their made up rumors and read official roadmaps. After all, HTC engineers know, what they'll be making next better that anyone, right?
