Verizon's Droid stock low, help on the way

[Shadez]

As stocks of the Incredible and even original Droid are low, help is on the way in the form of new superphones from Motorola.
Verizon's Store shows Incredible out of stock for a month

First the bad news: If you wanted to get your hands on a Droid Incredible, your prospects are pretty low at this point. Verizon is advertising no stock until mid-July but some retailers like Amazon say they they'll have stock by late June (and $50 off). That means that the best Droid you can pick up right now is the 7-month old original Motorola Droid, right?
Don't be so sure.
While they are selling at pretty significant discounts, ($20+plan) Droids may also be selling out as well. Motorola CEO Sanjay Jha said they couldn't make enough to keep Verizon(VZ) stocked.
But that might be because a whole new lineup of Droids is clogging up the assembly lines. The Motorola(MOT) Droid 2 has been pictured on numerous occasions and isn't too different than the original.
However, another Motorola product named Droid X is showing up on rumor sites which will definitely turn some heads. It is longer than the already giant Sprint EVO 4G according to some screenshots (below). It also appears to have a longer screen, if not bigger than the EVO's 4.3 inch screen.

Incredibly, this phone dwarfs even the Sprint EVO 4G. It looks just a bit smaller than the Dell Streak. The screen looks longer but not as wide as the EVO - around 4.3 inches diagonally.

If they are sold out of Moto Droids on June 21st, when I get my upgrade, I will kill someone. Im not joking. Auburn Hills store, you better save one for me, or I will kill someone with my crappy lg dare

Notice the song being played on the droid x is "We con the world" lol

Droid X is better than the Incredible. That's what I'll most likely be getting when the family member wants my Droid (month or so).

What do you think is scratched out on the bottom of that droid x?

 

[titans]

Same thing we have on our Droids probably.

Motorola (i read somewhere) is having supply chain issues as well. Not as bad at HTC and the amoled screens but apparently they're selling faster than they can make 'em.
