HTC 2010 portfolio leaked online

Documents claiming to reveal HTC's portfolio for the next six months have been leaked onto a developer's forum by a poster claiming to be in the know.

The documents have been posted on the XDA developers forum by a user known only by his handle B3ler3fonte, revealing eight new handsets, including three based on Windows Mobile 6.5 and five more Android devices.

B3ler3fonte claims to have been given the information during a presentation in Vienna in October this year detailing HTC's roadmap for the next six months with details of all the devices.

"I was changing my mind every single day, whether this should be or should not done," wrote B3ler3fonte, "but then I rethought that it's better to be done now and let you know all about it in one specific thread."

A spokesperson from HTC told IT PRO: "We cannot comment on speculation or rumour, but we're excited about our upcoming roadmap and encourage you to watch this space."

B3ler3fonte has scanned pictures along with specifications claiming they came from a brochure given out the October meeting.

Below are the pictures as well as details revealed in the forum post.
