Windows Phone 8 devices to be available later this year?

We’ve previously heard rumors about HTC releasing Windows Phone 8 devices later this year, and now we have more reports that support the possibility. According to the folks over at WPDang, who seem really confident in their sources, Windows Phone 8 devices will be released later this year. No mention on what hardware the devices are packing or which OEMs will be involved this time around, but I guess time will tell.

Windows 8 is set to launch later this year, and it could be a good idea for Microsoft to push out phones to go along with its tablet/desktop operating system at the same time. With companies like Nokia banking on Windows Phone 8 to sell its phones and the rest of the world (well, at least I know I am) expecting to be blown away by the operating system, it’s only going to be a matter of time before we find out if Microsoft can deliver. How many of you are planning to pick up a Windows Phone 8 device when they are finally released?
