HTC HD7 gets a release date and a price, courtesy of a leaked document

So far, only a handful of specs info has reached our ears, regarding the presumably-monstrous HTC HD7 smartphone, which will be powered by Microsoft's brand new operating system – Windows Phone 7. Now, courtesy of a leaked document, we get to know the device's release date and price... in Germany, via O2.

According to the document, the phone will arrive sometime during the 42nd week of the year. This timing coincides nicely with October 18 – the previously rumored release date. When it comes to the pricing, the HTC HD7 will probably see the light of day bearing a price tag of approximately $103 (EUR 79) when purchased with a 2-year EUR 20 plan, and $729 (EUR 559), if bought service-free. However, keep in mind that these prices are subject to change.

The preferred color by HTC seems to be black, and we have to tell you, folks – we just can't wait to finally touch this hot Windows Phone 7 handset. Some brave rumors of the past claimed that it will probably sport a 1.5GHz processor and a 4.5-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 800x1280 pixels. This, of course, sounds very naive to us, but whatever the final spec sheet has in store for us, we'll surely welcome it with open arms!
