Rumors suggested before Bell will release HTC Legend on 11th June, but there are sources that say Bell will start selling the phone 5 days later, on 16th June. Now we even have some pricing. If you want the smartphone on a three-year deal, you will pay $79.99, and $249.99 upfront a two-year contract. If you want to tie you up until next year, there is going to be a $349.99 fee to pay, while for the unlocked version you will have to spend $399.99. We haven't heard anything about minimum plans on contracts or any other informations, but the price range looks good enough for me.

The phone is running Android 2.1 and will probably get Froyo this year, is powered by HTC Sense, has a 3.2" AMOLED screen and is built out of aluminium, which also explains its weight, 126 g. The Taiwanese producer packed a 600MHz processor and 384MB RAM, with another 512 MB ROM. The 5MP camera with autofocus features Geotagging and wide-screen photo capture.

The phone is available in Canada since its release, but US support has not been offered. Well, it seems now there is HTC Legend for Americans too. If you don't like the HTC Desire, you may want to purchase its smaller brother. The HTC Legend is now available at AT&T's 3G bands. Many people ask why would AT&T make this phone available in the US. Well, this is probably because of AT&T's band frequencies are shared with Bell's one. The Canadian carrier launched the device some time ago, as we reported before.

The new HTC Legend is a device coming with HTC Sense, 3.2 inch AMOLED display, 5MP camera with autofocus, flash and video capabilities, 3.5mm headset jack, music player, radio and Wi-Fi. The handset can hold up to 32GB on the microSD card. The smartphone can be ordered from here, it's unlocked, and you won't have to tie you up to AT&T. The phone is in stock and you can purchase it for $498.50.

It's official now! The three models of HTC, Legend, Desire and Wildfire will be getting Fyoyo, the update for Android, in the next quarter of this year. Anyway, that seems far, but it's not. The third quarter of each year stars in July, so it's almost here. Sure, there is not going to be any Froyo update tomorrow or next week, because the third quarter is long, but rumors suggest there is going to come in a few weeks to a few months. Sure, that's not helping you too much, isn't it? We're sorry, but we don't know too much about it either.

Now we will only be able to wait for it, and I am sure there are many users out there who can't wait to update their operating system to the new Froyo, tipped to be way better than the 2.1 Eclair. Nexus One is the only phone which got a 2.2 update until now, but it seems there are also new three smartphones that are going to get it too.
