I think the Eris (codename: Desire) was FCC approved at the end of September. Yeah, there were no pictures whatsoever, but at least we knew whatever it was, it was ready to go. We don't even have that yet. My hope is that the Passion has been or is being submitted to the FCC now. It takes a couple weeks for approval after submission (they could have sent it in mid-Dec and are just waiting on review and approval). Anyway, I figure if this is announced on the 5th or at CES, then perhaps a couple of weeks later it'll be made available for sale, by the end of January. I doubt it would steal the thunder of the Nexus One so I can see HTC showing it off late next week a few days after Google's big announcment. Fingers crossed.
