Pocketnow is reporting that the long awaited Verizon
HTC Trophy has showed up on Best Buy's website, though not available/in stock. Usually this would be an indication of a near-launch. When we looked though, we were unable to find the device on the site, meaning the URL may still be hidden (or we're consistently spelling 'Trophy' wrong).
The price, out of contract, is listed as $600, but that's probably just a placeholder figure and nothing official. In addition, the model number
MWP6985 is also confirmed for Verizon's first Windows Phone, which is as mythical as the unicorn at this point.
So, does this mean Verizon folk will be able to pick up their phone shortly? With this device's track record, we're going with 'no'. Still, hope spring eternal that Verizon will someday launch this device and complete the Windows Phone presence in the U.S. Seriously Verizon, this looks just sad now.
