Some very compelling evidence that the Bravo = Incredible is here: http://bit.ly/5u5Bdo

The questions that remain are when and where? I really hope we the answer to where is VZW, but that assumes gadget's source is not FOS
I couldn't find any real screen shots or video of the game it self. Seems suspect.
All transmitters using reserved frequencies in the US require FCC approval, no? So then where is the FCC approval for this phone? Google just handed out hundreds of these things and they couldn't all be using them illegally.
Ok, more image spam: This one comparing Bravo to Passion. They really appear to be the same dimension. The Droid is scaled so that its screen has the same width as the Passion and Bravo. Looks pretty right, Bravo/Passion 3.5" DROID perhaps 3.7" due to FWVGA vs WVGA.

3 phones: http://bit.ly/717VyW
I have put the new 3.5" screen spec to the test by comparing a pic of the DROID's 3.7" screen to a perspective corrected unlockr pic of the Passion. I then drew a line across the DROID's screen diagonal and then copied that same line and overlaid it on the Passion image and it turns out the line slightly overshoots the Passion's screen. My conclusion is that it is very plausible that the Passion's screen is in fact smaller; keeping in mind that 3.5" is in fact only 5% smaller than 3.7".

This comparison assumes that the two devices are of the same physical height, as smartphones like these tend to be. If the Passion is in fact a taller phone then all this comparison is showing is that the Passion's screen takes up a smaller portion of the device than the DROID's and my 999 hours in photoshop may have gone to waste.
@JONNNathannn I agree, I doubted the trackball until I use it and now regard it as essential with Android.
How can such a supposedly tech savy crowd not have one person streaming audio or video or at least live blogging from their um... gadget?! Given the got topic of upcoming HTC phones this show should have some live accessibility especially since engadget has been reposting about it over and over despite the fact that 99.99% of it's audience can't attend the show.
Nice legs? There's so little tech per square inch of this picture. Wat-da-dee-o
Apple: you are are terrorist if you use our products in a way in which Steve Jobs did not explicitly envision (in an NDA)
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
