An 11th hour rumor hitting the internet today suggests that we’ll be seeing the rumored HTC M7 announced at CES after all. Well, that is provided an ‘indirect’ source close to XDA forum member @Football4PDA. It isn’t clear whether this would be as part of a carrier unveiling or if HTC  would issue a press announcement and put the device on display.

By some indirect information M7 might be announced on CES event. Moreover it might have screen buttons instead of hardware touch buttons…

We’re not totally sold on this one so we’ll be adding a pinch of salt to our list of things to pack for CES next week.
