HTC Windows Phone 8 rumours

The  HTC Accord running Windows Phone 8 
The Samsung's Ativ S was the first Windows 8 Phone officially announced and it has pretty much the same specs as the Samsung Galaxy 3 however it includes an NFC chip and a micro-SD slot (as standard with Windows Phone 8).
It was followed by the Nokia Lumia 820 and the Nokia Lumia 920 and on Wednesday HTC is going to be announcing it's new Windows Phones.

First rumour is the HTC Rio. It is the smallest of the new HTC phones to be rumoured with only a 5MP camera and a 4-inch screen (however that is still bigger than most mid-range smart phone screens).

Next is the HTC Acord, it is rumoured to have a 4.5-inch screen and an 8MP camera.

The 3rd and final HTC Windows Phone 8 to be rumoured is the HTC Zenith. It is bigger than the HTC Acord because it has a 4.7-inch display. It has the same 8MP camera as the HTC Accord though.

Small and maybe unnoticed differences between Windows Phone 7.5 and Windows Phone 8 on the hardware side is a new notifications light which (the clue's in the name) lights up when you have a notification and a new START button with the Windows 8 logo on.
