There has been a buzz for quite a while now that HTC is planning a new product soon. Well, with a brand like HTC, rumors fly around like crazy. There is one latest rumor about HTC that the company is preparing its very first dumbphone for release this Fall. According to these online sources, this phone will come with a touchscreen (but of course) and will resemble the HTC Viva smartphone.
Rumors additionally insist that the device will run a custom HTC OS that will be based on HTC’s famous TouchFLO 3D and Sense UIs. This would mean that the rumoured phone would have all the style of its “smarter” counterparts, without the complications of a proper smartphone. Well, we are impatiently awaiting more news on this one. Are you?
The HTC Touch Pro2 CDMA smartphone for Telus Canada may now be getting an extra 3.5mm headphone jack. It will be placed just adjacent to the ExtUSB port and will give users quick and convenient access for headphones or earphones.

The Android Community website has now gotten their hands on the HTC Hero (it is still to be officially released) and have done an unboxing video and walkthrough of the smartphone.

The Android Community thinks that this is the “best Android device to date” and that’s quite a feat for any smartphone to achieve till date! We have a short wait before we can let you know if there are any major changes in the US 3G version. Anyways, click here for AC’s video post.
