HTC EVO 3D dumped by Vodafone UK, due to “delays”

Some quite sad news has emerged for aspiring owners of HTC’s chunky EVO 3D – UK network Vodafone has decided it won’t be offering the glasses-free 3D Android phone it announced last month after all, due, apparently, to “delays” in the arrival of the phone.

Here’s the statement:

There’s been speculation recently regarding availability of HTC EVO 3D.

We can confirm that due to delays in the launch of the HTC EVO 3D, we no longer intend to include the device in our smartphone range. We’ll be contacting any customers who registered their interest shortly.

We realise this might come as a disappointment, but we’ve got some really exciting handsets in the pipeline. Keep an eye on our coming soon section for all the latest information about the products coming to Vodafone.

We’d imagine the rather lukewarm reception given to LG’s Optimus 3D may also have something to do with it. Cheerio, big fella:

And the EVO 3D is indeed no longer featured on Vodafone’s “coming soon” page. This latest 3D trend hasn’t lasted very long, has it?
