Washington23 - Breaking News and Updates

April 28th had long been in our minds as the day we would see the HTC Droid Incredible 2 hit Verizon’s shelves, and with the date only a few days away Verizon has finally hit us with the official announcement. The Droid Incredible 2 will cost the expected $199.99 on-contract when it arrives in stores this Thursday. This is more or less the phone known as the Incredible S in other parts of the world, featuring a 4-inch Super LCD display, 1GHz Snapdragon processor, and dual cameras. It isn’t a 4G device (that’s the Droid Charge, launching the same day), but it does take advantage of its 3G prowess with mobile hotspot capabilities.
