HTC First: a complicated launch?

The "almost" Facebook Phone designed by HTC seems to have trouble finding a buyer and its launch could even be canceled in some countries.
Unveiled in early April with the announcement of Facebook home, first HTC is already a failure? While sales in the U.S. by AT & T, very difficult to take off (speaking of 15,000 copies sold), several European operators have recently decided to delay or cancel the release, especially in England. We learn that Orange will put aside the launch of the device in the UK, as the environmental assessment of the operator simply cancel. A decision which does not come from the two companies named above, but Facebook itself.

The reasons are mostly cosmetic, because Facebook wants to update a part of the Home interface of Facebook application, moreover, does not encounter an incredible critical success demonstrated how his very average rating on Google Play Store: only 2.5 out of 5 (but have, finally, the fact that Facebook has a relatively negative image of the Android community?).
