HTC Vision TMobile version renamed to G1 Blaze

It's been a few weeks since we last heard of the QWERTY packing HTC Vision Android phone, but new rumors have surfaced. The latest gossip says the Vision is heading for TMobile and a potential market name.

We first encountered the HTC Vision back in May when it became clear that it will have a 480x800 pixels screen, which we later found out to be 3.7" big. The other details that came up earlier this month name-dropped Android 2.1 Eclair running on a 1GHz CPU.

Now the new rumors peg the HTC Vision as a T-Mobile device, though they don't specify which TMobile (TMobile USA? A European TMobile?). A clue is provided by a bit of old gossip that the HTC Vision will hit the UK in October.

Anyway, the HTC Vision could (rumor has it) change its name to G1 Blaze an allusion to the first Android phone to hit the market, the TMobile G1. For some reason HTC hasn't produced many phones with Android and QWERTY since the G1.

As with anything you hear from rumor-land, this batch of rumors should be taken with a pinch of salt, there's nothing official from HTC yet.
