HTC Passion not heading for Verizon this Christmas

on 12/14/2009, filed in Home > CellPhones

Word has it that the HTC Passion is not going to be available via Verizon Wireless in time for Christmas, despite an earlier rumor floating around concerning a teaser site that promoted the HTC Passion via Verizon Wireless for this Yuletide season. Apparently, some digital sleuthing revealed that the teaser site is a fake, but good thing the handset isn’t since the Passion design seems to have been chosen as the Nexus One which passed the FCC ealier today, albeit for T-Mobile 3G bands.
