Fans of the second-generation Android handset from HTC will be glad to hear that Vodafone is now rumored to start accepting pre-orders on the HTC Magic starting tomorrow, April 18. Word on the street has it that Voda was expected to kick off Magic pre-orders today, but will now be pushing back the pre-order date to Saturday April 18.
The Vodafone HTC Magic is still expected to go live on Vodafone UK on May 1, so HTC Magic fans won’t have to wait too long to put hands on real-life hardware. Unfortunately for those of us Stateside, HTC has yet to make any big announcements for the Magic in the US. T-Mobile is holding a mysterious press event on April 21, so we may hear more about the HTC Magic and its Android OS coming to T-Mobile USA’s network come next week. The move would make sense, given that T-Mobile was the global launch partner for Google’s then-new Android OS.
