WP Mango-running HTC Radar lands at the FCC, getting closer to release

An HTC handset running on Windows Phone Mango has passed FCC certification and judging by the model number, we’re looking at the HTC Radar. Passing approval at the Federal Communications Commission is a needed step for a phone’s launch stateside, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that it will end up on the US market.

In the case of the Radar though, all evidence points to a soon-to-come release on none other but T-Mobile. The handset has appeared branded with the TMo logo on leaked pictures earlier today, and the GSM frequencies quoted in the filing match those of the carrier.

Bearing the model number NM8PI06100, the device is expected to launch with a 1GHz single-core Qualcomm MSM8255 processor, a 3.8-inch WVGA LCD screen and a 5-megapixel rear camera. Hopefully, these run-of-the mill specs translate into an affordable price tag as well.
