In case you missed the memo, HTC is going to publicly unveil its Windows Phone 8 devices today or tomorrow (depending on your timezone) in NYC around 11AM ET ( that’s 4PM GMT). There’s unfortunately no live stream that I’m aware off unlike Nokia’s September 5th event so the best way to follow the news will most probably the live-blogs of those who are going to be present there or simple refreshing HTC’s website which will be updated with all the specifications as soon as the handsets are announced.

We still know ho many WP8 devices are going to be announced besides the HTC 8X (HTC Accord) which has been leaked in renders recently. The previously leaked roadmap may very well turn out to be incorrect but I would put it past HTC to announce a flagship (HTC Zenith) device which is more powerful flagship device that Nokia’s Lumia 920 (with a Snapdragon S4 Pro Quad Core and Adreno 320 instead of a Snapdragon S4 Plus) similar to how the HTC Titan was the biggest and fastest Windows Phone 7.5 handset last year ( it had the highest clocked CPU, the biggest screen and also the highest MP camera sensor in the Titan II). Will it be better than Nokia’s 920? Hopefully HTC has a few surprises up its sleeve…
