HTC Incredible HD

This is just a hunch but piecing together the info that is out, here is what i got on this. Verizon just released their first 4G LTE commercial this past sunday 11-21-10 during sunday night football. At the end of the spot it said coming december 2010. The HTC device ( Incredible HD? ) I am going to say that name is going to stick since verizon loves to piggy back off the success of previous devices. Now the reason why i brought up the commercial for 4G was because there was a rumor that they brought the device back in and made it a 4G device and there are screen shots of it running 4G. So i am going with a right before the holiday launch of verizon's first flagship 4G LTE smartphone.

I can tell you that in Cincinnati - some - if not most of the towers are already lit up with 4G - I attended a 4G event last week and they were using the actual commercial towers and showing off the upcoming 4G pc modems - very fast. Speeds were consitent at 12mbs down and 5 up - it would peak at 20 down and 10 up. There were about 20 laptops running various demos and about 5 that were available for general surfing. Even with all 20 running, each was consistent with the 12 down. Very cool and very promising - as long as they can balance the load. We have 2 modems on order and our rep is saying we should have them next week. I believe it when I see it, but from what I saw - its ready!

Has anyone else felt that Verizon was actually running ahead of schedule with 4G? So perhaps we will be seeing LTE phones sooner rather then later.
