Be still, our beating hearts! HTC has just pressed the “Go” button for European and Asian shipping of its latest object of desire, and it’s served notice to American phone lovers that the HD2 is coming to them soon as well. Slated for a “major US carrier” some time “early 2010,” it’ll land squarely in the same time bracket as the XPERIA X10, which should lead to some really quite interesting decisions to be made, presumably by March 2010. The WinMo 6.5 device might be shipping now, but you’ll have to wait at least until the 9th of November before you can spill your Euros for it, and we expect to see a flurry of pricing and contract information filling that short waiting time. Full PR after the break.
