Could this be the Froyo (Android 2.2) version of HTC Sense?

With 160,000 activations a day, there’s a huge number of people waiting for the HTC Sense UI version of Froyo to show up.  I know all of us here sure are. Usually, we have to pass on the random screenshot tip that rolls in, but in this case they a…

HTC Legend launches on Bell as Canada scores again

HTC Legend

I’m officially jealous.  First Virgin Mobile Canada gets the HTC Legend, now parent company Bell flaunts this gorgous phone in my general direction.  It’s the same Legend we’ve been talking about since we first saw it at Mobile World Congress — 3.2 inch AMOLED screen, all aluminum unibody design, 600 MHz Qualcomm processor, 5-megapixel camera with LED flash, and enough good looks and style to shake a stick at.  Price looks nice as
well, $79.95 CDN with a three year contract, $399.95 CDN to buy it outright.  While I sit and cry because I can’t have it, I expect all my friends in the Great White North to tell me how awesome it is and show me lots of pictures of this hot little phone.  [Bell via BGR]

HTC Legend comes to North America on Canada’s Virgin Mobile

HTC Legend

The HTC Legend has been one of our favorite phones to come out of the Taiwanese manufacturer this year. (Read our full review) Its unibody aluminum construction, the new Sense UI, optical trackpad, gorgeous AMOLED screen, 5MP camera, speedy processor … the list goes on. Only problem’s been that it’s kept itself out of North America — until now. Canada’s Virgin Mobile network has scored it for $79 with a three-year (Canadian standard) contract and data plan at $50 a month. Welcome to the new world, little Legend. Now let’s work our way south into the States, eh? [Virgin Mobile]

HTC Legend clears FCC, coming to AT&T or headed to Canada ?

The beautiful HTC Legend, with its unibody build and clean lines, is coming. The guys at Engadget have discovered that the HTC Legend has just cleared the FCC and is packing 850/1900 MHz 3G bands which means its just perfect for AT&T, Rogers, Telus, and other Canadian carriers. Which means that the HTC Legend is on its way to North America. Which is awesome.

We’ve spent some time with the HTC Legend and though it doesn’t pack the spec punch of a Droid Incredible or Evo 4G, its uber-sexy design almost makes up for it. If it heads to AT&T, then AT&T’s currently underwhelming Android lineup becomes instantly respectable. If it heads to Canada, then their already impressive roster of Android phones becomes even more envy inducing. Please AT&T, go and get this phone.
