According to Intomobile, HTC is expected to ship 1 million Android powered phones in 2008. And "Morgan Stanley is estimating that HTC will ship 8% of total handsets in 2008 with the Android OS.".
Be aware that there has been many rumors around HTC's Android phone plan. Some said HTC will ship 50000 gPhones by the end of this year, which apparently is not happening.
Before joining OHA, HTC is a 100% Windows Mobile design house. According to CEO of HTC, the company will likely to ship 11 million Windows Mobile phones this year. If you look that their 2006 volume, which is 9 million, then you know that in 2008, they will ship both Windows Mobile and Android phones with a total volume of at least 13 million.
The question is, how much will HTC invest in Android phones? Will that affect their tight relationship with Microsoft?
