Not
that we ever met the
Vodafone 920,
Vodafone's self-branded Windows Mobile 6 Standard smartphone, developed and
manufactured by HTC, which
was announced back in September as a Christmas device. And if you wonder now
where the Vodafone 920 is - so close to Christmas - the answer is easy: Vodafone
canceled it (for now). Vodafone Germany confirmed this today in an E-Mail to us.
That's too bad since I had the hope (and according to the
only
photo we've ever seen there were real chances) that the Vodafone 920 might
be a kind of UMTS version of the
T-Mobile Shadow.

But no - no more Vodafone 920 plans anymore. Vodafone hasn't given any reasons
why it was canceled so it's not clear if it was due to quality problems, mind
changes or a stronger focus on other terminals.
Therefore the Palm
Treo 500v and LG KS20
were the last Windows Mobile smartphone additions for this year. Let's wait what
Vodafone plans for next year.
