HTC Flyer leak points to T-Mobile US
A detailed leak on Sunday has given clues that the HTC Flyer should come to T-Mobile, and possibly the US. Detailed marketing materials, including in-store stands, have clearly attached the Android 2.3 tablet to the carrier. PocketNow's copies don't explicitly name the US, but one shot shows a T-Mobile YouTube channel; only the US has a presence on the video page.
An American T-Mobile version would have to switch to its native 3G bands and might move to HSPA+ to get some added speed. It would be unlikely to move away from the 1.5GHz Snapdragon, rear five-megapixel camera and front 1.3-megapixel camera of the current tablet. T-Mobile would very likely add its own custom apps on top of HTC Sense.
A launch date on T-Mobile is an unknown, though Sprint's Evo View 4G adaptation is due sometime in the summer.
