UPDATE: EE has confirmed to Cult of Android that Facebook has indeed killed plans to bring the HTC First to the U.K. The statement is at the bottom of this post.

Plans to bring the HTC First to the United Kingdom have reportedly been axed following the handset’s dismal launch in the United States. Sources claim that it was Facebook that killed the plans, rather then HTC or any of the European carrier partners.

HTC has reportedly lost a number of its staff amid rumors that the struggling smartphone manufacturer is in “utter freefall.”

Chief Product Officer Kouji Kodera, who was responsible for HTC’s overall product strategy, reportedly left the Taiwanese company last week, while its vice president of global communications, Jason Gordon, is leaving at the end of this week.
