Video Is this the HTC Dream?

This video has been circulating:



At first I didn't think it was real but based on all the info coming out... it could really be the Dream! I wish the touch screen took up more of the real estate... like the HTC Touch Diamond.

Whatchya think?

Default Are the spec's correct?

A phone that is 3" x 5" is far too large for me
If it's true, then I'm go back to the Touch Diamond.. not waiting for the Dream

Can't blame you if the specs are indeed "true". But I think its worth waiting for official word just in case. Android should be pretty epic although early 2009 we should see a ton more Android phones come out so who knows.

There is something neat about having the first Android Phone on the market... especially when (alledgedly) there won't be any others out for several months.

I'm hoping this is just a prototype and that the final product looks a lot better. I don't think it looks too bad, but at the same time, the first Android powered phone should really be something that's very impressive.

It looks like the same dev handset that Andy Rubin demonstrated to BBC back in February, albeit with updated software:

Wow... comparing to that video you're right Max... they look identical besides the color.

I'm really, really not liking the screen and that bottom keypad looking so seperate and blocky. Its a bit awkard and clunky looking if you ask me. But then again, I care more about the apps then anything else.

I like the way the phone looks although I am positive it will ship with at least a couple more revisions if that is the true Dream.
