New details emerged for an anticipated Windows 8 smartphone.
According to TechnoBloom, the HTC Windows Phone 8X may hit shelves on Nov. 12.
Verizon has been silent on Windows Phone 8 details, but the recent information points to a Nov. 12 release with a price tag of $199.99 with a two-year service agreement.
"This information came from our sources that got their hands on a very confidential Minimum Advertized Price (MAP) list of the wireless provider. In fact, the November 12 release date of the HTC Windows Phone 8X could very well turn out to be spot on because this coincides with a previous tip given to us that the wireless provider is already training its employees about the Windows Phone 8 devices that it is expected to launch," TechnoBloom said.
