HTC confirmed that a phone that runs Google's Android operating system will be unveiled by Q4 this year. This transpired in a conversation that general manager of HTC for MEA and CIS Kevin Chen had with blogger Meraj Chhaya at the launch of the South African HTC Touch Diamond. When quizzed whether it will be possible for the one company to make smartphones that can run on competing operating system, the response was that "they (HTC) are not going to dump anyone." So there you go. HTC will continue making Windows Mobile-based devices, and you will, in all likelihood, be able to buy the first Android-based smartphone before the year is out.
