Last week we came across a leaked mail-in-rebate form from the number six carrier that showed the Desire, among other unannounced devices, receiving a $70 discount.&nbsp; This was the first hint of the HTC device being partnered with a US carrier &#8211; an event many have been waiting for (though few would have guessed US Cellular would be the first).<\/p>\n<p>Not long after the leaked form surfaced, a US Cellular Facebook team member posted the following status, further advancing themselves as the first prospective carrier to get a hold of the Desire:<br \/><em><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em>&#8220;The worst kept secret in online history!&nbsp; HTC Desire with Android from U.S. Cellular, coming this summer after our rigorous testing is complete.&nbsp; Now have fun guessing which other Android phone we&#8217;ll launch.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So, now we know (assuming this is true) that a CDMA version of the HTC Desire is expected to launch this summer on US Cellular, and who&#8217;d like to wager that the &#8220;other Android phone&#8221; mentioned is the HTC Legend?&nbsp; I&#8217;ve still got my money on the big four.&nbsp; Maybe they&#8217;re better at keeping secrets, maybe they haven&#8217;t completed negotiations with HTC, or maybe they don&#8217;t feel the need to leak information early in the game to gain a competitive advantage?&nbsp; Whatever the case may be, I&#8217;m betting that one of the top four US carriers launches the HTC Desire before US Cellular.<\/p>\n<p>Anyone disagree?&nbsp; Feel free to challenge me in the comments!<\/p>\n<p>Via <a href=\"http:\/\/androinica.com\/2010\/04\/19\/us-cellular-confirm-htc-desire-release-also-tease-of-more-android-phone-coming\/\" >Androinica<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/6h47VapEe4n7veDW2Uj-NhHGKeg\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/6h47VapEe4n7veDW2Uj-NhHGKeg\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/6h47VapEe4n7veDW2Uj-NhHGKeg\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/6h47VapEe4n7veDW2Uj-NhHGKeg\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/phonedog_cellphoneblog\/~4\/3rcyVcBz8CY\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m not really sure whether to classify this as a rumor or as confirmed, but it sure looks as though someone at US Cellular wants the world (or at least its subscriber base) to know that they&#8217;ll be getting the coveted HTC Desire this summer.&nbsp;
