We had heard that T-Mobile Germany would be getting the Touch Pro 2 first, but what about their American cousin? Well, a rumoured August 12th. launch date has bubbled up for those who wait for it with bated breath. Pencil your calendars lightly, as the source couldn’t produce any supporting documents, but a little bit of hope couldn’t hurt. Bell is already showing signs of a CDMA version, as is Verizon, so the date isn’t entirely far-fetched. We’re just about ready to publish out Touch Pro 2 / N97 head-to-head review, so stay tuned to see how this sucker stacks up against the competition.
