Latest HTC Leo render seemingly confirmed by leaked ROM

Remember those weird "Pro.Three"-branded Leo renders that leaked a few days ago? The ones that seemed improbable at best? Well, a ROM appears to have dripped out of the HTC sieve recently that miraculously confirms those renders as having some basis in reality, thanks to an animated start sequence that matches up pretty tightly with the previous leak. We can't confirm the Pro.Three name specifically from this, but if the Leo turns out to be the WinMo superphone everyone's hoping it is, does the name really matter? Follow the break for a video of the ROM in action (on a Touch Diamond2, sadly -- not a Leo).

As usual, no CDMA love from HTC. It will be 2011 before this comes to Sprint!

this is slow ! in a weird way. A pop up menu takes that long ?

It's slow because it's not running on the actual Leo which is supposed to be coming out. If you hear, he speculates that Snapdragon will be on there, which will make it run much faster.
