Is the HTC Vision just a QWERTY packing HTC Desire?

Although there is an abundance of touch-only Android powered smartphones out of HTC's camp, they've been relatively skimp in the physical QWERTY options – although we're on the verge of seeing the T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide come out. The HTC Vision was just recently spotted alongside some other potential HTC handsets in a recent leak, but now there are reports on how it'll become one of the newest high-end HTC Android phones. It's speculated that the HTC Vision will look quite similar to the HTC Desire, but it'll obviously sport a a physical QWERTY, WVGA touchscreen, and maybe Android 2.2 – this all comes from Tweakers.net where its UA profile looks similar to the Desire. So far we've seen only a handful of mid-range Android smartphones packing QWERTY keyboards, but we have yet to truly witness something extraordinary that can substantially separate itself from the existing crop. Motorola definitely has a hit with the DROID, but it still doesn't exude that true premium handset feel in its specs as there are a lot of people coveting something with awe-inspiring specs – that's until the Motorola Shadow shows up of course.

If this goes to TMO, I'm in as well. I love TMO's plus plans. This phone could be everything one really needs: 3.7" screen with keyboard that actually works (droids keypad was as annoying as J-Dubs knocking early saturday morning. Bring this out quick; June 4th would be good!

"we have yet to truly witness something extraordinary that can substantially separate itself from the existing crop."... ITS 3.7" WITH A KEYBOARD!! The ONLY (US) Android phone like this is the Droid. Come on T-Mobile!

I've been looking for an Andriod phone, for verizon, that has a well-spaced keyboard. Droid didn't do it for me, so i've been looking at the vphone v1 because of it's specs and it's keyboard. But if this comes out for VZ, im sold.
