Gadget Leak: Verizon’s HTC ‘DROID’ Eris Price And Launch Date

HTC Droid Eris

Just when Motorola delivers a break through product, up pops HTC rearing their not so ugly head.  Set to launch on the same day as the DROID is the ‘DROID’ Eris, which is essentially a rebranded Hero handset.  The ‘DROID’ Eris name possibly has something to do with some sort of weird Verizon branding, but if I were Motorola I’d be up in arms.

Specs for the handset include a 3.2-inch touchscreen, WiFi, virtual QWERTY keyboard, 5 megapixel camera, 3.5mm headphone jack and all that HTC jazz we’ve come to expect.

The ‘DROID’ Eris will set you back $199 after a $100 mail-in-rebate and 2-year contract signing.

Grew up back East, got sick of the cold and headed West. Since I was small I have been pushing buttons - both electronic and human. With an insatiable need for tech I thought "why not start a blog focusing on technology, and use my dislikes and likes to post on gadgets."

    I’m Brian, had a LG Dare and was due the NE2 and got the HTC Droid Eris for free (lucky me). Getting delivered today and cant wait. I’m in the military, married, 3 kids(15yold girl, 4yold boy, &1yrold girl). Was going to get the Motorola Droid but read online that HTC plans on releasing an update for the Eris, and Hero that will upgrade to the Andriod 2.0 OS which would have been my only reason get get the Motorola. I hangout at http://www.Droid-Eris.com to share my tricks hope you will too.
