Is it Incredible? Verizon thinks so.

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

I haven’t geeked out on a new phone in a while so I think we’re about due. Now granted this isn’t the EVO but I think it’s up there. It’s the new HTC Droid Incredible ($200) and it hits Verizon on the April 29th. (You can pre-order it now) I instantly think this is leaps and bounds above the Motorola Droid if for no other reason than that it comes with the Sense UI. This guy is taking some cues from the Nexus One as well, the Incredible offers a 3.7-inch, 480×800 AMOLED capacitive touch screen, a 1GHz Snapdragon processor, Android 2.1 with the HTC Sense UI, an optical joystick, an eight megapixel camera with dual LED flash, and the usual Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

So is it incredible? That’s for you to decide but I bet it’s better than your current phone.

Is Verizon getting the Nexus One on March 23rd?

Monday, March 1st, 2010

The rumor wheel is turning again for Google’s Nexus One. The new report is that it’s headed to Big Red on March 23rd. According to the guys at Neowin.net the Nexus One, originally released on T-Mobile in January, has passed FCC inspection for use on Verizon’s CDMA network.

The word on the street is that Verizon will introduce the Nexus One on the day the International CTIA wireless show begins in the US. It’s not yet clear if Verizon plans to hold a press conference at CTIA regarding the launch and we don’t know anything on pricing but we hear that it will be “competitive.” Pretty much we don’t know anything but aren’t rumors great!
