Default HTC And The Market

But even that doesn't make much sense given the overall number of phones that HTC moves every year...
And it's not like HTC doesn't release "high end" phones in the U.S. I think the Touch Diamiond is still considered high end, and it's available here (quite a bit after being released in Europe). The same will be true of the Touch Pro.

And what about the Palm Treo Pro, which is built by HTC?

They know there's a demand....
