I remember reading that the MSM8960 Pro is expected the second half of 2012.

Thanks for the update and the map!

I'm not in a WiMax area so I'm waiting. If I lived in a decent WiMax area, I would think about it, especially for the teenager in the house.

Amazon has the WiMax devices on sale now. Samsung Galaxy S Epic II 4G Touch $49.99. Evo 3D $39.99. With contract of course. Looks like the others are on sale also.

From pcmag.com:

"So why not only release One phones? HTC still wants to build cheaper phones which wouldn't be eligible for the One branding, Kodera said. And some wireless carrier customers are more demanding than others, apparently.

"There's a lot of operator franchise markets, and in those cases branding and those discussions will come from the [operator] customers," Kodera said.

That's why it looks like One may not come to Verizon or Sprint yet. Kodera was very cagey about HTC's relationship with those two carriers, which are notorious for rebranding phones and demanding custom versions.

"We have some franchise business outside of this [One line]," Kodera said."

Any idea why these markets?
