HTC Ignite And HTC Prime Windows Phone 7 Devices Spotted At Dutch Retailer’s Website
It’s not the first time these devices have been leaked on the web, however, it’s the first time they showed on relatively official ways. The HTC Ignite and HTC Prime are two Windows Phone 7 device of the next-generation WP7 lineup which should become available this fall.
The two smartphones have been leaked on the Phone House Dutch-based retailer which is well known among technology-related people as it likes to give us some insights before the companies do.
There’s only one problem with the HTC Ignite: previously it was believed that it’s an Android smartphone as it’s powered by a 800MHz Qualcomm CPU and we all know that Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7 requires a 1GHz processor. Things might have changed and frankly, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Ignite will run on a dual-core 800MHz CPU.
The second device called HTC Prime is a sliding smartphone with a full QWERTY keyboard and a 5MP camera on the back and it’s most likely the next-gen HTC 7 Pro aka Arrive in the US, while the Ignite is the heir of the popular Mozart, the second best selling WP7 device after the HTC HD7.
The release dates for these two smartphones are listed as “unknown,” but surprisingly enough we’ve seen mentions of the HTC Eternity, that monstrous device with a 4.7-inch touchscreen which might become the Windows Phone 7 handset of your dreams.
The HTC Prime, Ignite, and Eternity are expected to join the Windows Phone 7 Mango party started by the Fujitsu Toshiba IS21T and the Nokia Sea Ray along with other smartphones from Samsung, LG, Acer, Dell, and ZTE.
We have two more surprises for you from the Dutch retailer: the Apple iPhone 5 is listed as coming soon, practically confirming the September availability and the name of the device, and the BlackBerry Bold Touch 9900 release date is listed as October 1st, 2011, meaning that it might become available sooner in the US.
