Guys... was this video ever posted?

I haven't translated the text on the site, but just click play on the video. It's the Incredible definitely. Looks like that "dark testing room" they talked about in the past. lol

???????? HTC Supersonic ??? HTC Incredible ?? ????? / ??????.?????

Edit: The video has a still shot of some soccer game or something. Ignore that, it goes straight to the phone when you play it.

Yeah that's been around for quite a bit. Good looking out though

yep! that video was originally posted on this site, and then I can't remember which contributor messed with the brightness control to show the optical track pad.

One of OUR members actually found that video and then readjusted it for enhanced viewing purposes, so yes we've seen it.;)

Edit: Dam you guys are fast.
 
Sorry about all the double posting, gents and ladies.

However, I do believe that we only need one post to tell someone that. It doesn't bother me at all, you were super nice about it, but I've seen flame wars start when 3 people told someone that something was already posted.

Could CTIA start any sooner? lol
 
Okay, guys and gals. Piece of info regarding the End of Quarter date-debate. I was just watching Fox Business (say what you will...) and they mentioned there were 10 days left in the quarter. Depending on how you count days, that's either the 28th or 29th of this month.

Alternatively, Wikipedia
 says Apr 1.

Personally, I'm betting on an early April release. Specifically, I'll wager first week of April. More specifically, 1st, 2nd, 5th, 6th, or 7th. I just can't see a weekend release. I suspect a CTIA announcement, shortly followed by a significant (though not Droid-sized) ad blitz. The phone will come out near the start of the quarter (first week), as companies love to post an early quarter business surge.
 
Hey guys,

I've been reading this forum for months and months and I have never had any inside information until my friend started working for Verizon. I know you guys will be skeptical of this inside information I have, but I figured since my friend has been dead on details about this phone that he will most likely be right about other stuff too. However, take this with a grain of salt if you must. He confirmed to me (a couple weeks ago) that the eris will be discontinued the first week of April. He also told me that usually a new phone is released 3 weeks - 2 months after its predecessor is discontinued (Maybe someone can do some research on whether Verizon's past proves that). So I asked him if he has heard anything specifically about the Incredible's release date and he told me end of April to beginning of May. Hopefully, that's not true and we get it in a couple of weeks, but I guess time will tell.

Oh and on a side note.. because it seems that other insiders have disproved this.. he told me 2 weeks ago that the incredible will have 1GB of RAM.


Thoughts/Comments? Any insiders want to confirm any of these rumors? Thanks! :)

I might be jumping ship, but it won't be into another Verizon ship....it will be to a Carrier that doesn't mind putting out state of the art ships. If HTC makes a certain announcement, maybe my next one will be the S.S. Supersonic.

God, I hope I don't, but I too might have to leave vzw for sprint or something...i've been waiting since october 09 as many of you and "patience is a virtue" just isn't cutting it anymore. Patience for this long is a little more than patience. But i'm all talk. I'm sure if nothing is announce at CTIA i'll throw a shit fit, bitch and moan, and continue to take it like a bitch from Verizon and wait.

Is anyone going to jump ship if they don't hear anything at CTIA and buy a droid? I sincerely don't want to and want to come away from this wait with a nexus or incredible, but my patience is growing thin...

Problem for me is I need a subsidized phone and am not going to pay $500.00 or so for an N1. The HD2 was looking like a strong candidate until Microsoft confirmed it would not be upgradable to Win Phone 7. This really leaves me with nothing to look forward to until either the Incredible and/or Desire are released, as I will NEVER go back to Sprint. Been there, done that and I have absolutely no desire to be on AT&T's network either. So now it's a waiting game between Verizon and T-Mobile to see who gets the coolest new handset next. I'm praying and hoping it's Big Red, but their methodology for bringing new phones to market is F'd up as far as I'm concerned.

No ones doing that on purpose. This forum moves so fast that people are responding to posts before someone has the chance to even refresh the page.
Edit: I do apologize for my triple-post about it though. Unfortunately I was 6 pages behind and catching up, and didn't have a chance to refresh the page once I got onto the last page.


Btw, for those that were excited about the Slingbox app that will be hitting the Android Market, here is a quick demo:

1GB of ram hasn't been disproven....in fact it has been hinted that it will have more than 512 MB. NKT and Your source seem to have the same info regarding an April/May release, but I think we should know the truth come next tuesday.

I know that several of us have played around with Verizon's site and the Testman site when we've gotten bored to see if there might be any info there - has anyone to date received this message?:

You could get a subsidized N1 on Tmobile for 180 as you'd be a new customer if you can't wait.
 
does anyone think incredible is not final name.... as we've seen before - HTC's internal names end up different. Eris was orignally Desire.....

That's good news that the 1GB of ram hasn't been disproved yet.. I didn't realize that! Ah, I can't take all of this excitement. haha I hope CTIA teaches us a few things.

I'll keep bugging my friend to see if he gets any confirmed information about the Incredible.
