Red HTC One heading to Sprint on August 16th?

The Red HTC One has been available in the UK for a few weeks now, but it looks like the device may be making its way to the US in roughly three weeks. A leaked Sprint roadmap document lists the Red HTC One with an August 16th release date. Sprint and HTC have yet to release any official comments regarding the availability of the Red HTC One, but it's not too much of a stretch to think that Sprint would carry the device since it already stocks the silver and black models. Pricing for the Red HTC One should come in at $199.99 with a new contract – the same price Sprint is charging for the 32GB HTC One.
