Launch date for Droid Incredible accidentally released by Verizon Wireless

It was supposed to be a secret when the Droid Incredible, Verizon's new flagship phone, was designed to be released. But now everyone knows that Verizon customers can be able to pre-order the Droid Incredible beginning Thursday, April 29. A teaser website on VerizonWireless.com accidentally went live earlier today but was quickly pulled. Evidently the cat is out of the bag now.

Launch of Droid Incredible confirmed

Droid geeks are reporting sightings of the Droid Incredible for a while. The anticipation has been unbearable creating gossip about rumors of the features and release within the blogosphere. The agony is now being swapped out with happiness because of a communication breakdown within the inner sanctum of the Verizon web development and we all know that April 29 we can use credit cards to order the Droid Incredible.

Droid Incredible Google Nexus One matchup

It appears the Droid Incredible has about the very same specs as the Google Nexus One, and Verizon users have been expecting it for a while. The Droid Incredible could have a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor under the hood, accompanied by 576MB RAM/512MB ROM and 8GB of built-in internal storage. It will also have the same 3.7-inch AMOLED display, with 480×800 pixels. As with the Nexus One, the Incredible will run Android 2.1.

Droid Incredible improves Android Platform

The biggest difference between the two devices will be that the Droid Incredible runs HTC’s revised Sense UI, according to Eric Zeman at Informationweek.com. Zeman said the newer version of Sense makes using the Android platform a seamless and much more enjoyable experience. The improvements of HTC’s custom overlay consist of better social networking support and more powerful screen switching tools. The Sense UI was confirmed in the screen shot posted by Verizon Wireless on the teaser site before it was shut down by the company.

Droid Incredible and the point and shoot performance

Other features which were revealed on the site are a hefty 8 megapixel camera with flash and autofocus, meaning the Droid Incredible could help you so you don't have to get a personal loan for a new digital camera. Other goodies for the Droid Incredible include a GPS, a 3.5 mm headset, 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1, a light sensor, proximity sensor, and a digital compass.

Droid Incredible: the Droid killer

It wasn't too long before Verizon password-protected the teaser site for the Droid Incredible. It featured a large image of the Droid Incredible, along with info that incorporated the April 29 launch date. Unless you were one of the few lucky individuals who caught Verizon with their pants down earlier, you are probably shut out now. You are able to expect the site to be revived before too long along with the advertising blitz urging you kill your Droid, get a cash loan, and order the Droid Incredible.
