Please log in for more thread options Yup, HTC is where it would come from, and you probably have a decent chance
that they will. They have not been a direct vendor that long and will try to
create a positive image. It is often touchier with branded phones, because
even if it is an HTC device, HTC needs to customize it for the carrier, at
the request of the carier and then tha carrier needs to provide it. Lots
more steps, and often the carriers are more interested in pushing new
models...with new contracts, than cultivating user loyalty.
