If you a rearing to get a HTC HD2 on AT&T the only option right now is buying one from the other side of the world, Telstra in Australia specifically.

The Australian HTC HD2 has just launched 2 days ago, but has already found its way to USA, where an excited owner has posted about his experience on the AT&T network.  The phone does not work very well with the native Telstra ROM, but a custom ROM like Dutty’s is said to sort out most issues.

One note one should bear in mind before considering the purchase is that Telstra only shares the 850 Mhz 3G band with AT&T, meaning the phone will not be able to access 3G on the 1900 AT&T band.  Fortunately AT&T is at present expanding its 850 Mhz network as much as possibly, so this may not be much of an issue.
