HTC One shown in Blue, but now coming to Verizon Aug 29?

Ah, the HTC One...still waiting to be released on Verizon.

First it was set to be out on August 1st, but was then delayed to August 15th. Today one of our tipsters informed us that Verizon has communicated to its reps that the HTC One is now being pushed back (again) until August 29th. No reason was given, but it seems that they don't want a competing phone to be released until after the new Motorola DROID Ultra, MAXX, and Mini are released on the 20th.

But we do have some good news. Remember a few days ago we told you the HTC One was going to be available in blue, as an exclusive to Verizon? Now we can see what it will look like, thanks to @evleaks over on Twitter.

Do you think the HTC One is worth waiting around until the 29th, or are you more interested in the new Motorola phones?
