HTC Incredible is a code name for an Android powered handset for Verizon?

A "trusted" tipster told Engadget that one of the devices listed in the leaked HTC Android 2.1 ROM, the Incredible, is heading to Verizon. With a name like that, there is a high degree of anticipation and even Engadget wonders if this will be the Passion/Dragon that we have all heard about. Whether or not the "Incredible" title is just a code name, the Taiwanese based company now has another Android powered model for Big Red to go along with the DROID ERIS. You can't just put the "Incredible" label on something without making it, well, incredble. So here's your chance to speak up and tell us what features you would need to see in a cellphone to make it "Incredible".

too many "trusted" tipsters making fabricated rumors about the htc passion. Tired of the rumors and just release the phone for all can have a great touch screen phone equal to the iphone 3gs besides the droid.

How about what they originally said the "passion" would have. i.e. 1 ghz processor, android 2.1 and a 4.3' screen. I'm getting sick of these stupid rumors. First was the passion, then it changed to dragon, then bravo, nexus one, incredible, and so on.... At this point i just want an android on verizon, but don't want to get a droid if this rumored phone is going to come out. STOP POSTING ALL THESE FALSE RUMORS AND GETTING ALL OUR HOPES UP!

I agree... i want a 4.3'' screen with a snapdragon! I don't talk really, my phone is mainly SMS and web browsing. I would much prefer a tablet like PC phone than a smaller phone. There are many users like me who could care less about how hard it would be to hold to their ear, because we don't talk! last month 93 minutes used, 2.7GB data, 800 sms, countless times playing games on my tiny 3.2'' screen. I just want a monster screen, so I will wait.

It's probably just a CDMA version of the Bravo from the HTC T-Mobile Europe brochure. As a matter of fact, take a gander at the scans for the Bravo and you'll see they call it the Incredible in the brochure. Call it a Freudian-slip by the HTC marketing department.

I would say, it would have to be LIKE the HTC HD2 a highly anticipated competitor to the iPhone, but without the Windows OS. Android FTW! :]
