HTC Rhyme to hit the UK on October 17 (via O2). Or maybe on October 8

Announced earlier today by HTC in New York, the new HTC Rhyme Android Gingerbread smartphone will become available in the US first (via Verizon Wireless), and only then in Europe and other parts of the world. In the UK, O2 will be “the only network” to offer the Rhyme. According to this tweet (via EuroDroid) O2 will launch the smartphone on October 17. Reportedly, O2′s Rhyme will have the same color as the Verizon version, namely purple – although the handset also has a sliver/blue and a mocha edition.

While you'll need to wait for October 17 to get the HTC Rhyme from O2, you may be able to buy it unlocked earlier.
