It allegedly runs a Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU, and based on a <a href=\"http:\/\/s80.photobucket.com\/albums\/j191\/nelsonaquino\/?action=view&amp;current=video-2010-02-06-16-31-01.flv\">brief video demonstration<\/a>, I think that&#8217;s a safe bet.<\/p>\n<p>The user interface is no less fluid on the Incredible than on my Nexus One, as shown here. Note that this video spends more time looking at the floor than the phone, but it&#8217;s the best I&#8217;ve found so far. Also, if the video won&#8217;t play here, just click it to see it directly on Photobucket &#8212; just be prepared to evaluate that flooring. <img src='http:\/\/s.wordpress.com\/wp-includes\/images\/smilies\/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)'  class=\"wp-smiley\" \/> <\/p>\n<p><object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"600\" height=\"361\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/static.photobucket.com\/player.swf?file=http:\/\/vid80.photobucket.com\/albums\/j191\/nelsonaquino\/video-2010-02-06-16-31-01.flv\" \/><param name=\"wmode\" value=\"transparent\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"600\" height=\"361\" src=\"http:\/\/static.photobucket.com\/player.swf?file=http:\/\/vid80.photobucket.com\/albums\/j191\/nelsonaquino\/video-2010-02-06-16-31-01.flv\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" wmode=\"transparent\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n<p>Android 2.1 is seen on the phone, but fans of the Sense UI will be happy because the Incredible is running Sense.

And although the camera lens sticks out on the Incredible, just like on the Nexus One, HTC modified the back cover to handle the protrusion differently. It even looks like the external speaker grill is bigger as a result, so hands-free calls could potentially be louder.<\/p>\n<p>Since the Sense interface rides on top of Android, I wouldn&#8217;t expect Google to be selling this phone directly, like they do with the Nexus One. In fact, I&#8217;d anticipate that HTC has added more than just the Sense UI &#8212; it wouldn&#8217;t surprise me to see full support for Microsoft Exchange features with the Incredible.<\/p>\n<p>So how about it Verizon Wireless customers? Based on the limited information, does this phone look more &#8220;incredible&#8221; to you than the Nexus One that&#8217;s coming soon?<\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n\t\t\t\t\tvar galleryData = [{\"title\":\"incr3\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/02\\\/incr3.jpeg?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}, {\"title\":\"incr1\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/02\\\/incr1.jpeg?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}, {\"title\":\"incr5\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/02\\\/incr5.jpeg?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}, {\"title\":\"incr2\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/02\\\/incr2.jpeg?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}, {\"title\":\"incr4\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/02\\\/incr4.jpeg?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}];\n\t\t\t\t   <\/script><\/p>\n<div id='gallery'>\n<ol>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"450\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/02\/incr3.jpeg?h=450&#038;w=500\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"450\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/02\/incr1.jpeg?h=450&#038;w=500\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"450\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/02\/incr5.jpeg?h=450&#038;w=500\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"450\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/02\/incr2.jpeg?h=450&#038;w=500\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"450\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/02\/incr4.jpeg?h=450&#038;w=500\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div id='gallery-nav-outer'>\n<div class=\"loader\" id=\"gallery-loading\"><span>Loading<\/span><\/div>\n<p><span id='gallery-next' class='nav' title='Next Image'>Next<\/span><span id='gallery-prev' class='nav' title='Previous Image'>Previous<\/span><\/p>\n<div id='gallery-nav-inner'>\n<div id='gallery-nav'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"gallery-meta\">\n<div class=\"count\">Picture <span id=\"gallery-count\">1<\/span> of 5 <\/div>\n<h5 id=\"gallery-title\">incr3<\/h5>\n<p id=\"gallery-caption\">\n<\/div>\n<p><strong><strong>Related research from GigaOM Pro (sub req\u2019d):<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pro.gigaom.com\/2009\/11\/marketing-handsets-in-the-superphone-era\/\">Marketing Handsets in the Superphone Era<\/a><\/p>\n<p>  <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/gocomments\/jkontherun.wordpress.com\/56353\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/comments\/jkontherun.wordpress.com\/56353\/\" \/><\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/godelicious\/jkontherun.wordpress.com\/56353\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/delicious\/jkontherun.wordpress.com\/56353\/\" \/><\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/gostumble\/jkontherun.wordpress.com\/56353\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/stumble\/jkontherun.wordpress.com\/56353\/\" \/><\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/godigg\/jkontherun.wordpress.com\/56353\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/digg\/jkontherun.wordpress.com\/56353\/\" \/><\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/goreddit\/jkontherun.wordpress.com\/56353\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/reddit\/jkontherun.wordpress.com\/56353\/\" \/><\/a> <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/stats.wordpress.com\/b.gif?host=jkontherun.com&#038;blog=4479943&#038;post=56353&#038;subd=jkontherun&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We all know that Google&#8217;s Nexus One isn&#8217;t hitting Verizon Wireless until this spring.
