WP 7 handsets broken down by carriers worldwide

Microsoft and its Windows Phone 7 partners unveiled their global portfolio, and it is quite the smorgasbord of handsets and continents. Windows Phone 7 devices will be available  from  mobile operators in Europe, North America, Asia Pacific and Australia. There will be more than 60 mobile operators in over 30 countries worldwide carrying WP7 handsets.

From the announcement:

A broad selection of phones will begin shipping in holiday 2010 with more arriving in 2011, including phones from Sprint and Verizon. In addition, select models will be available at Microsoft Store locations and from Amazon...
