HTC Fiesta Runs Android, Goes to AT&T

Taiwan-based mobile phone maker HTC Corporation is the first company to come to the market with a handset powered by Google's Android operating system, the HTC Dream, and it also seems to be the one with the largest number of Android phones headed for the shelves. Most of you should already know the company's Magic and Hero, launched with the platform on board too, and might have also heard about the HTC Click, a low-end Android phone expected to be launched in China this year.

One more device that should come out of the company's labs with Android included in the package is the HTC Fiesta, which was spotted a while ago on the Bluetooth SIG website. The handset might come to the market before the end of the ongoing year, reports say, and it seems as real as it can be, since the guys over at Cell Passion discovered the UA Profile for the Fiesta.

Also called, HTC T5252, the handset is expected to become available for purchase in the US via AT&T, proving to be the first Android mobile phone launched via this carrier. Some people will certainly be glad to hear that the operator will finally have such a phone in its lineup. Rumors about others launching Android handsets already emerged, with HTC Hero expected to head for Sprint and some Motorola handsets coming to Verizon; however, AT&T seemed to remain off the Android wagon.

Unfortunately, further details on the upcoming HTC Fiesta are missing at the moment, though the UA Profile shows an ARM11 Processor, as well as a QVGA display, and a possible alphanumeric keypad (no QWERTY, it seems). It should come as a low-end device, as the supposed specs shows, yet some expect it to overtake the T-Mobile G1 and myTouch 3G. Stay tuned to learn more details on the phone as soon as they become available.
