AT&T Waiting On Android, 2010 HTC Hero

You could see this as a good thing or a bad thing, I guess it depends on your vantage point. We’ve already seen that Verizon has some sort of HTC Hero variant in the works and PhoneArena has word that AT&T will get the Hero in early 2010. Add that to Sprint’s currently available version and you’ve got 3 American Heroes. Sounds like a great thing… right?

Not for eager AT&T customers who want a shot at something worthwhile besides the iPhone this holiday season. Also not for AT&T’s bottom line: holiday sales are pivotal in terms of profits and with every other carrier offering at least one Android Phone, how hard would it have been for AT&T to do the same? Makes us wonder if Apple had a hand in this considering they have an exclusivity agreement to hang over the heads during negotiations.

Anyways, bottom line if the rumor is right – AT&T is getting the HTC Hero in early 2010. For long-time/loyal readers you may remember we told you that AT&T will get the HTC Hero in 2010 way back in July!
