Looks like the release of the HTC Knight — sometimes called the Speedy and possibly launching as the EVO Shift 4G — is just around the corner as a grouping of pictures showing off casing options give us our clearest look at promotional images of the device. The pictures were nabbed by HTCPedia via their online store showing off several different protective cases, but the real juice is what’s inside those cases. It is rumored the phone may launch for Sprint January 6th during CES, and with these images as any indication we are apt to think the date will definitely fall around that time.
Also leaked for the Knight is the official Android OS ROM. From the looks of that the phone won’t be running Gingerbread and will use the older version of HTC Sense, but we’ll wait for a little more cracking to be done before we pass any final judgement. More info on that can be found over at the always on top of things XDA.
