Depends on what u want. Bottom line: I wanted a phone that ran the Android OS. Then, I wanted a phone with a slideout keyboard and big screen. If u like touch only phones, get the Incredible. If u want to use a hard keyboard too, get a Motorola Droid.

If the screen on the HTC is anything like Motorola Droid's, either choice will be good. I had an Omnia 1. Didnt like the screen after awhile. (resistive) A screen like the Iphone, Droid's are very good. (capacitive) Decide what type of touch screen u want also.

I'm working on submitting my upgrade. $99 after NE2 and online discount. Sweet!

I am encouraged by the high praise in reviews about the responsive touchscreen. I really think, at last, I won't mind not having a physical QWERTY. :blackdroid:

I'm keeping the droid until my new every two upgrade. By then, 4G will most likely be the network norm and the phones then will eclipse any phone comming out now.

Technology progresses at a rapid rate, and to have the latest and greatest phone in a market where phones have a 6 month lifespan would be too much for me.

Even though the Droid ran better before the 2.1 update and it's relatively slower than before the hyped update, I'm hanging onto it and will probably root it to get the processor speed up.

By the time I need to upgrade, there may be 10 or 12mp cameras, HD video and possibly display and hopefully an improved android market.

This is just my $0.02

I'm definitely sticking with my droid until the contract is up. I just renewed about 8 months ago, and bought droid retail.
like so many before me, i thought I'd needed a physical keyboard. Swype has changed that thought for me. So at the end of the contract, if there is a more appealing android phone, that lacks a keyboard I will probably renew with it.

ok guys...basically i went with the HTC Incredible. i got it for 106.99 due to previous posts reguarding crappy blackberry. the only reason i went with it was because of the 512ram and the snapdragon processor. i hope this is better than the blackberry so i don't have to listen to the wife for another year and a half..lol​
