We have seen a fair bit in terms of the HTC Radar 4G smartphone up until this point. The official announcement came from HTC along with word from T-Mobile towards the end of September. Furthermore, T-Mobile then released a coming soon style teaser page.

But alas, up until today we knew the handset was coming but we were not entirely sure when it would arrive or how much it would cost once it was available. And well, T-Mobile has taken to Facebook and posted those missing details. Bottom line here, those who may have been waiting can rest assured in knowing that their wait is almost over. According to T-Mobile;

Windows Phone fans, we’ve got some good news for you on this Monday morning. The HTC Radar 4G – our new Mango-flavored phone – will be in stores next Wednesday, November 2. The HTC Radar 4G is expected to cost $99.99 after a $50 mail-in rebate card with a two-year service agreement and qualifying T-Mobile Classic voice and data plan, plus taxes and fees.

Otherwise, in terms of the specs, the HTC Radar 4G will be a 4G capable device and it will arrive running Windows Phone 7.5 Mango. The remaining specs include a 3.8 inch (480 x 800) touchscreen display, 1GHz processor, 512MB RAM, 8GB of internal storage, front facing VGA quality camera and a 5 megapixel rear facing camera with dual LED flash and 720p HD video recording.
