HTC Opal FCC

Lookie what we have here… The little the phone that never goes away quits. The less than impressive HTC Opal landed in the hands of the FCC this week showing off its 850/1900 GSM support and not so blazing EDGE capabilities. After the HTC Touch HD was canceled for North America, we were hoping to see something a bit more exciting than the underpowered HTC Opal but it looks like we have to take what we can get. We’re still not sure who fell asleep at the wheel on this one - are any of you guys looking forward to it?

    Pricing seems crucial here.

    We dont really know if this is meant for USA. AT&T wont sell it, and T-Mobile does not carry many smartphones. Its probably just going FCC for roaming in USA.

    This of it as another smartphone USA wont get, and this time you dont even care either.

    Gee, I wonder why they even bother? With phone subsidies, carrier locks, bloatware, why would any manufacturer want to do business in the USA anyway?
