Meanwhile a CDMA Touch HD is NOT in the works, and HTC has made it extremely clear that one is not in the works. Critical made comment that they were able, for the fun of it, to solder together pieces from a CDMA Diamond onto a Touch HD and although it was kind of poorly thrown-together, it DID work. That's completely different from HTC actually planning to make one.
Live in the moment, not in futures based on no current real information.

im not jumping the gun at all...i think that just like the TP was expected on 10/19, then 11/02, then 10/26, and now out on 10/24, it is highly likely that the HD can have the same type of entry on the US market.
criticalaudioinc has already clarified that HTC requested them to mod the HD they had and to check it on the CDMA network...and now they are highly interested.
the HD is not an upgrade to the TP...its a different device with better features (save the keyboard). i really like both phones...but given the choice, i will go with the HD. i do want the TP just because it is out now and there is nothing remotely concrete about when the HD will be available, if at all. but the "wanting the best i can get" part of me says to hold out and wait. the "i want the best as of now" part of me says...get the TP.
nevertheless...that whammy is coming, believe it or not.
