The invite is rather bland and doesn’t offer up any clues directly. At the bottom there is a little blue half circle and blue dot though. It has a very Sense like lockscreen appeal to it. Speculation points to several new smartphones including one or more Windows 8 devices. The fact that Android blogs are getting invites means something will be announced for us as well. We are banking on two primary devices along with some software. They should be announcing and showcasing the HTC One X+ variant that we have seen hit benchmarks and other areas that is slated for T-mobile. They should also be showing of their 5-inch phablet type device as well. With the blue graphic at the bottom, we think some new Sense improvements are also likely.

Interesting – looking forward to reading more and finding out what the fuss is all about, though I doubt they’d be able to keep all the details under their hats until the 19th!
HTC needs to completely lose (or completely rework) Sense. I understand the need for branding, unfortunately, its negative branding at this point. It may have been necessary with early versions of Android, but with ICS and JB, stock Android is highly functional, consistent, and visually modern and appealing. At the very least, they should offer the option to use stock Android as a launcher instead of Sense.
That would be a really great option. Or make stock OS devices with a play store app that would enable sense or something if the user chose to use it.

[...] There is certainly no shortage of new devices being announced, leaked and rumored. This time of year is big for manufacturers. We have plenty of holidays right around the corner that prompt a lot of people to get new devices, pick up presents for someone else or what have you. We have seen the new line of Motorola DROID RAZR’s, the new Kindle Fire line, the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and plenty of other devices. There are however few from HTC that we are waiting to get our official first looks at. Mainly the HTC One X+, which is supposed to be headed to T-Mobile before the year is up. Hopefully we get a real look at it on September 19th at the HTC press event. [...]
