Leaked: HTC Scorpion Features WiMax, 1.5 GHz Processor, Android 2.2

The Android onslaught continues. According to a leaked build file  published on AndroidSPIN, the next HTC Android device to make a big splash in the market will be the Scorpion a.k.a. Olympian. While the site posts a disclaimer that it can’t validate the authenticity of the information, what we see is certainly impressive.

The indication is that the Scorpion will get a 1.5 GHz Snapdragon processor under the hood. It will feature WiMax compatibility and will run the FRE65C build of Android 2.2. If these specs hold true, this phone should leave current Android owners drooling with envy.

Engadget speculates that it could be a rumored smartbook as opposed to a handset.

There’s no word or speculation on when exactly the Scorpion will hit the market, but it’s not expected for some time. Until then, we’re stuck with the Nexus One and Droid. [AndoridSpin via BGR]
