But even if with all that mystery, to be able to have a little say in what the name of the next <a href=\"http:\/\/www.androidcentral.com\/tags\/htc\">HTC<\/a> device is going to be is kind of cool.<\/p>\n<p>On the poll, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.androidcentral.com\/tags\/htc\">HTC<\/a> cryptically says that they&#8217;re looking for a name &quot;that is playful and full of youth&quot;.

Basically, there&#8217;s a good chance that this phone isn&#8217;t for the grown up in us.
