HTC Fiesta is an Android phone, so says Bluetooth SIG

We know from countless encounters with our dear, dear friends at the Bluetooth Special Interest Group that their certifications arent as... shall we say, "detailed" as their counterparts at the FCC; frequently, we dont even bother with them because theres simply nothing there to talk about. Android phones are still pretty difficult to come by, though, so whenever we see the platform mentioned in a certification of any kind, were bound to sit up and take notice -- particularly when said certification comes via HTC. Tipster Jeff came across a filing for an HTC "Fiesta" in the SIG this time around, descriptively noted as "an Android phone" thatll be available in Asia, Europe, and North America. Other than that, we can count on it having Bluetooth (would be funny if it didnt, wouldnt it?), but thats about it; the G1 / Dream was the Kila, the Magic was the Sapphire, so whats this gonna be?
