http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/4/2010/02/340x_htc-incredible-video.jpgBoth the Incredible (http://gizmodo.com/5479895/htc-incredible-turns-up-on-verizon-wireless-system-implying-launch-is-near) and Supersonic (http://gizmodo.com/5457038/leaked-photos-of-the-htc-supersonic-look-like-a-hd2-but-runs-android-supposedly) have had their leaky moments, and due to the similarities it's difficult to tell which model is shown here (http://phandroid.com/2010/02/25/htc-incredible-on-video/). I'm leaning towards the Incredible, which is meant to be the Verizon version of the Desire (http://gizmodo.com/5472642/htc-desire-a-premium-nexus-one-without-the-google).
The video's in pretty poor quality, but you can see it's got the same ridged back as previous photos have shown—and while the back is red, I wouldn't read too much into that, as HTC always does colored parts for prototypes, favoring pretty basic colors for the launch. It's definitely a US-only device, shown running Verizon Wireless—but also lacks the chin that European Android phones from HTC always have.
When I had a briefing with HTC about the Legend and Desire, they told me every Android phone destined for the European market will have a chin, with US launches lacking one.
Check out the video for a shakycam look at the Incredible (or Supersonic), and let me know what you think. There seems to be a deeper bezel on the bottom half, like the Incredible—is that where the optical trackpad is? It's a bit hard to make out.
