HTC Click coming to France as the HTC Tattoo without WiFi?

Remember the Tattoo brand that HTC recently trademarked? The newest rumblings along the mobile grapevine have HTC launching the HTC Click as the Android-powered HTC Tattoo in France in a few weeks’ time. The kicker? The HTC Click/Tattoo forgoes WiFi in favor of a cheaper price-tag. That would make the HTC Tattoo the first Android smartphone to lack a WiFi radio.
On the upside, the budget Android phone will still feature 3G data connectivity and a 3-megapixel camera. Analysts expect the more affordable HTC Click to help increase HTC’s handset shipments by 19%, fueled by increased interest in the Android OS.
French wireless carrier Bouygues Telecom will apparently be picking up the HTC Tattoo later this month. The HTC Tattoo will run the Donut build of the Android OS, which will likely include the updated Android Market. Price is expected to hit around $300, but that could change.
