If you’re dying to know what HTC has been working on for the past few months, we suggest you mark September 15^th on your calendar.  HTC has just send out invitations to the media to a press event they will be hosting on September 15^th in London.  As usual, no details about the event have been revealed, but we’re pretty sure that HTC will be showing off at least a few different Android and Windows Phone 7 devices.  The date does fall pretty close to the expected launch of the HTC Vanguard on T-Mobile USA, but HTC typically does not announce U.S. specific devices at their international press events.  That being said, the HTC Vanguard could be launch in both the U.S. and EU just like the HTC Dream.   

Other phones we could expect to see unveiled at HTC’s London event include the HTC Ace (Desire HD), HTC Mozart, HTC Vision, HTC Schubert, and the HTC Glacier.  If that list looks a bit long, keep in mind that HTC is expected to unveil 6 new phones and ship over 8 million units in Q4 alone.

It’s been less than 48 hours since the first blurry cam images of the HTC Desire HD surfaced on the web and how we have for great HD video of the handset.  Solo Palmari has posted up a short clip on their YouTube channel which shows off the HTC Desire HD’s new body.  The internals of the HTC Desire may be pretty similar to the HTC EVO 4G, but the uni-body aluminum shell that wraps around the handset gives the Desire HTC a look which more closely resembles that of the HD2. 

In our last post we mentioned that the HTC Desire HD would not feature a front facing camera.  We may actually have to retract that statement since the video reveals a little block dot on the right of the speaker grill which was not really visible in the previous image that we spotted. 

When we first heard about the upcoming HTC Desire HD (aka HTC Ace), we came to the conclusion that it would be a GSM version of the HTC EVO 4G for the European market. Now, the first picture of the HTC Desire HD has surfaced, proving that we were on the right track. The HTC Desire HD features a 4.3 inch display, 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, 8MP camera with 720p video recording, all running on Android 2.2

The HTC Desire HD is expected to launch in October and will most likely show up on all major EU and UK carriers. Though the HTC Desire HD does look to be a simple GSM replica of the HTC EVO, it will feature a few tricks its CDMA counterpart does not enjoy (yet).

• SRS audio technology

Though HTC has been plagued with component shortages for the HTC Desire, EVO 4G, and DROID Incredible over the past few months, HTC is hoping to finish out the year with an incredibly strong fourth quarter.  Industry sources are reporting that HTC is planning to introduce a total of six new handsets in Q4 which will help them boost their sale numbers for the year and ship nearly 8.5 million phone in the fourth quarter alone. 

HTC’s new handset lineup will most likely include the HTC Vision, Vanguard, and Emerald running on Android along with the HTC Mondrian, and Mozart which are expected to be running Microsoft’s new Windows Phone 7 platform.  The HTC Ace (HTC Desire HD) isn’t included in the list since it is expected to go on sale some time in Q3. 

HTC has already experienced two amazing quarters this year, beating their own and analyst expectations both times.  With six new phones on the horizon, we are hoping that HTC has finally been able to sort out their component supply issues, which could be their only obstacle in reaching their sales target.

U.S. customers have been enjoying the HTC EVO 4G’s 4.3 inch screen for about a month now.  We have heard that HTC fans would love to see the phone make its way over to Europe and Asian markets, so we’re glad we can share some good news with you.  No, HTC is not launching a GSM version of the EVO 4G any time soon, but it looks like the rumored HTC Ace might actually be a better replacement for its CDMA counterpart.  The new phone will most likely be named the HTC Desire HD and will feature most of the same specs as the EVO 4G on the hardware side, but a more Euro friendly uni-body aluminum design rather than the stark black slab.

Some of the highlights which will make the HTC Desire HD a more … desirable phone include Android 2.2, 4GB of internal memory, 720p video capture Xvid video playback, and surround sound.  The HTC Desire HD is expected to launch some time in October in European and Asian markets.
