The HTC board have done some really bad decisions in the last year. Like removing Card Slots and replaceable batteries.
Also this launching "new" phones constantly, which simply are new versions of already existing models, simply doesn't cut it.

Also that of not supporting two-three year old models, doesn't go with a high-end manufacturer.
There is a saying in Nordic countries: As you make your bed, you will sleep. In HTC's case bad!

WOW! From OEM KING to Retail juggernaut to this in a matter of 6yrs.
HTC, a lesson to Huwaii, Hon-Hei, and other OEMs (Huwaii has already begun being their brand name).
