Early in this month, we updated a report which suggested that Google is in final stage of talking to acquire HTC’s smartphone division by the end of the year. Well, it seems that this is going to be true. As we got a new report which says, HTC scheduled something big to announce tomorrow.
As pointed out by Tim Culpan of Bloomberg Gadfly, citing the Taiwan Stock Exchange, HTC has said it will halt trading on Thursday “pending a major announcement.”

The most reliable Leaker Evan Blass has added oil into the fire, by a saying he had received a copy of an internal invitation to a HTC Town Hall meeting in which the Google acquisition could be discussed. Blass gave more information by stating that the deal would see Google acquire HTC’s hardware assets, while HTC would retain its brand name.
