Second Verizon Android phone to be an HTC, Motorola Sholes makes an appearance

Google and Verizon were awfully coy this morning regarding the upcoming Android devices that’ll be launching on Big Red over the next few weeks, but you know, that certainly looks like a Verizon-branded HTC Hero in Eric’s hand there, doesn’t it? And over on the right, well, that’s exactly what the Motorola Sholes looks like, isn’t it? Cat’s out of the bag, fellas — might as well push up those launch dates.

P.S.- This also jibes perfectly with that HTC Desire rumor from last month, but we’d bet almost anything the internals are the same as the Hero.

Verizon Motorola Sholes With Android Will Be On Sale By The Holidays [Rumors]

‘Tis going to be the season of new cell phones. Boy Genius Report has gotten a hold of holiday inventory lists from Target and Sam’s Club. The details are juicy and include the rumored Verizon Motorola Sholes Android phone.

You can check out the raw material in the leaked documents below, but here is the most interesting stuff to me:

• The Sam’s Club document includes the Verizon Motorola Sholes (also been rumored to be called the Droid or Tao). From the tiny picture, the Android phone seems to have a front-facing camera. We already know a good deal of the rest of the specs. Say it is so: Verizon is finally going to get some ‘droid!
• The Verizon BlackBerry Storm 2 is finally on its way to Sam’s Club, Target and Best Buy. It will be joined BlackBerry Curve 2 or LG Chocolate Touch.
• Don’t forget yesterday’s Best Buy leaks: the Nokia Booklet 3G netbook is listed and launching on October 25 with the option of AT&T activation. The retailer will also have the Palm Pixi and plans to have “new BlackBerry devices across multiple carriers.”

That could be all the exciting holiday phone news we see and not to mention lots of them will be able to run full Flash! Not a bad way to start off the week. [Boy Genius Report]
