HTC Desire in FCC testing
HTC's Desire (also known as the Predator) was discovered today in an FCC testing entry. Most information remains secret, but the Android-based smartphone has appeared with CDMA and should support EVDO-based 3G as a result. The news supports notions that the phone is destined for Verizon.
Extra detail has also been added through a Wi-Fi Alliance certification (PDF) that not only confirms the presence of Wi-Fi but also the model number. Neither this nor the FCC document hints at when the Desire/Predator would ship to Verizon, though past rumors have pinpointed it as reaching Verizon later on in October. [via BGR]
