September 19, 2008, 1:13 pm PDT

Today FCC has approved the HTC "Jade", better known as the Touch 3G. Unfortunately (but expected), the 7.2Mbps HSDPA won't be available to North American users. Instead they'll have to enjoy the crappy 2G WCDMA on the 900 and 2100MHz bands, which won't even allow for chatting and browsing at the same time.
