Softbank Mobile (Japan) to sell Desire HD in Nov; Froyo update for Desire changes
Two pieces of news for any readers in the land of the rising sun -- Softbank Mobile announced that they will be selling the Desire HD in mid November, with reservations being taken starting Oct 15; and the Froyo rollout for the original Desire has been halted for devices with OLED screens.
Last week we reported that users running the HTC Desire on Softbank would soon be seeing some Froyo lovin', and that still stands -- as long as they're sporting a version of the Desire with the TFT LCD display. While there's no details about exactly why the OLED version was halted, the LCD version is scheduled to roll out as planned starting today.
It's hard to find anything more exciting than a Froyo update, but the news that the Desire HD will be launching just might do it. We've seen it for Europe, and on Vodaphone specifically, but so far all we've heard or seen for those of us in the states is T-Mobile's MyTouch HD version. Wouldn't this be a beast on AT&T?
