HTC leaks suggest big, small, buttonless, and Brew MP-based phones are on the way

All things considered, HTC doesn’t do the best job of protecting its roadmap; indeed, the slides that leaked a little over a year ago ended up doing a fabulous job of showing us what was in the pipe for 2010, so we wouldn’t doubt the massive spread that PocketNow published today. Starting at the top, we’ve got a device that looks like a trackpad-less evolution of the original Desire (pictured above), another that looks like an Aria -sized Nexus One in black (complete with old-school trackball), and an additional version of a buttonless phone that’s got generic HTC branding in place of the Verizon logo in a picture unearthed by Phandroid a few days ago (pictured after the break). That’s not all, though: there also seems to be a lower-end Android device with physical Send / End buttons and an optical trackpad underneath a smallish display accompanied by the usual four capacitive buttons. A device with a China Telecom logo on it is also in the mix, looking like a big-screened model that’ll probably be ready to do battle with that 1.2GHz Droid X by a different name that just launched over there. Finally, there’s a small, entry-level model that might succeed the Smart as HTC’s Brew MP -powered flagbearer, though Android is obviously the thrust here. Specs and names are still a mystery across the board at this point, but as PocketNow says, we wouldn’t be surprised to get details at MWC next month.
