Hello, I understand how important it is to have the latest information about the best new devices around. Currently there are plenty of rumors spreading around the internet about a device referred to as either the HTC Passion or the HTC Dragon. At this time, the device officially does not exist. There has been no announcement made by HTC regarding this device, whether it be for the worldwide market or for a specific carrier (Verizon is the most commonly pointed at in these rumors.) With no announcement having been made, it is unknown what the device is from the pictures that have been seen. As it is unconfirmed that the device exists, so is it unknown when such a device might be released were it to exist. The best way to keep up with official news is to keep an eye on HTC. You may also wish to follow the HTC Twitter account at HTC (htc) on Twitter, as announcements are often made on here. If you have any other questions, feel free to contact us again.
