If the latest reports turn out to be true, February is going to be a big month for HTC. The Commercial Times has stated that the Taiwanese company is going to announce a trio of Tegra 3-powered devices at the Mobile World Congress next year. The quad-core devices will consist of a tablet and two Android smartphones. The tablet should be running Android as well, though it wasn’t confirmed in the article.

Other than that, no additional details have been revealed but HTC has previously mentioned that its new tablet is going to stand out from the competition. Until HTC officially announces the devices, these rumors are best taken with a pinch of salt but seeing how quad-core devices are the next big thing; it wouldn’t be a big surprise if they turn out to be true. 2012 is shaping up to be an interesting year.

Android: Android is the mobile operating system from Google. The software was originally built by a company called Android Inc, that was purchased by Google in 2005. From its modest debuts, Android has become a powerhouse that powers not only smartphones and tablet, but a host of other less high-profile devices and gadgets. Although Android is not a community-driven project, Google does release the source code as open-source under the Apache license. You can follow Ubergizmo on Android with Google Currents.

HTC: High Tech Computer Corporation (HTC) is a Taiwanese manufacturer of smartphones and tablets. The company started as an ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) that was building devices for others, but went on making HTC-branded smartphones based mostly on Microsoft's Windows operating system (OS) for mobile. In 2009, it began to shift its core focus away from Windows mobile devices to Android-based ones. In 2010 the company went back to the Windows Phone eco-system.
