Sprint released the HTC Arrive, the first CDMA Windows Phone 7 the operator will be carrying, at the end of February with a March 20, 2011 announced date for availability.

For your daily dose of Rumor, the CDMA version of the HTC 7 Pro might be available in the Seattle area on March 17 according to WPCentral’s sources. It’s not the actual three days in advance we are interested in — and neither should you be — but the date itself. It wouldn’t make sense to release a NoDo Windows Phone 7 on the market before the actual roll-out process begins for the other devices out there, though we’ve seen isolated reports.

So our guess is, regardless if it is March 20 or March 17 and regardless of the Microsoft France statement for NoDo delay, that we should see NoDo starting to roll out in approximately a week or so from now, sometime around the end of next week, beginning of week March 20.
