Neowin spreads word that HTC seems to have cancelled its 12-inch Windows RT tablet. The device was anticipated to feature a 2048 x 1536 pixel resolution, but fears over lack of demand reportedly resulted in the product's cancellation.
Bloomberg reports, via unnamed sources, that HTC management felt that there would not be enough demand for such a product and there were also concerns that the tablet would cost too much. When reached for comment, an HTC representative said, "We don’t comment on rumors or speculation."

The same story claims that HTC will still go ahead with its plans for a smaller 7-inch Windows RT tablet that will be released later this year. Previous rumors claimed the tablet will have a 2.3 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, along with 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of storage.
