Stolen HTC Wildfire Prototype Shows Up in the Wild, Goes on Sale
Over the weekend, it appears that the version of the phone that was to be sold in the Netherlands was stolen. Tweakers.net is reporting that the HTC Wildfire spotted is more than likely a prototype. The version pictured here has a trackball whereas the consumer version HTC has been marketing has a trackpad ala the HTC Droid Incredible.
The phone was thrown up for sale at a Netherlands-based auction site starting at 300 euros. From what I can tell, it ended up selling for 350 euros just yesterday. As for the rest of you guys? You probably did yourself a favor not bidding on this device and waiting until July when the final product launches for 259 euros.
