AT&T may delay or cancel its first Google Android device built by HTC, reports digiTimes, which references industry sources in Taiwan. Engagdet reported similar rumblings yesterday.
So far, only T-Mobile has launched an Android device in the U.S., so a launch by AT&T would have provided a nice lift to the platform's popularity. But reportedly, the device, which is codenamed the HTC Lancaster, has not yet passed AT&T's review process. The delay will cause a setback to AT&T and HTC, as other handset makers, such as Motorola LG and Sony Ericsson get close to launching their own devices-most likely on a broad set of carriers that could include Verizon Wireless and Sprint Nextel.
AT&T is expected to launch two HTC handsets running Windows Mobile 6.5, including the Touch Diamond 2 and Touch Pro 2 in October.
