Verizon HTC Droid Incredible

Over the past six months, the Droid — and its slightly scary "DROID!" battle cry — has become the public face of Android smartphones.

The Droid Incredible (henceforth simply the Incredible) is a kinder, more gentle smartphone than Motorola’s initial offering. It also replaces the Droid Eris — both devices are manufactured by HTC and feature large touchscreens in lieu of a keyboard.

And the Incredible brings with it the latest version of the Sense user interface, making Android even easier, more customizable and more eye-pleasing than ever.
