So we have heard a good news finally, first half of the 2010 HTC roadmap has been unveiled and it seems that the Taiwanese company will be releasing some new Android handsets within the next 6 months. But still even in this roadmap, the HTC Espresso has not been mentioned anywhere at all when we all know that it is in pipeline. The handsets are HTC Legend, HTC Salsa, HTC Bravo, HTC Tide and HTC buzz which are all Android.
HTC

1. HTC Legend (Android)
We should understand that the names are just codenames which will be changed once the sets are out. Now this set Legend comes with a good 3.2" capacitive touchscreen of HVGA resolution with prominent features like a 5 megapixel camera, GPS, Wi-Fi, and 3G, FM radio, USB port and a 3.5mm audio jack onboard. The company will probably be launching this set somewhere in March 2010. All we can say about this set is that it looks strikingly similar to the HTC Hero.

2. HTC Salsa (Android)
HTC Salsa is equipped with a 2.6" landscape QVGA touchscreen and a 3 megapixel camera with other features like a full QWERTY keyboard, 3G connectivity, Wi-Fi, GPS, FM radio, a 3.5mm audio jack and a microSD card slot. HTC Salsa will be available somewhere in June 2010.

3. HTC Bravo (Android)
HTC Bravo comes with a huge 3.7" AMOLED display, and being touted as the multimedia flagship of the company for the year 2010. Other notable features are the ones that are common with every HTC Android phone like Wi-Fi, GPS, 3.5mm audio jack, microUSB port, FM radio, quad-band GSM connectivity, 3G with HSPA and a 5 Megapixel camera. It is expected to be available in the market by April next year.

This too should find its way to the markets somewhere in April next year.

5. HTC Buzz (Android)
The final Android set in pipeline for next year is HTC Buzz which will be equipped with the same sort of customizable rear panel which we had seen in HTC Tattoo as well.
