Multitouch on Android isn't quite old hat yet, so let's take another look at it on the Verizon HTC Droid Incredible. All things being equal, it just feels better than on the Motorola Droid or Google Nexus One. And, more important, we're not seeing any of the issues experienced when testing on the Nexus One. Check it out.

Update: Buckaroo Banzai spells it out perfectly in the comments. Indeed, it's a different screen panel.

This morning Millennial Media, the largest independent mobile advertising platform, released the numbers from its monthly Scorecard for Mobile Advertising Reach and Targeting (SMART).  No surprises here - they are seeing big growth from the Android platform.  Millennial Media reports that for the first time, Android OS is now in the top three in the
smartphone ad impressions numbers.  Unlike AdMob, this is a third party mobile advertising company and has no ties to Google, who would be their competitor.  Highlights from the report:

• Android impressions increased by 3% in March alone
• 6% of all US Smartphone impressions for the month of March came from Android OS
• Globally, Android ad impressions have increased a staggering 72% month over month during a one year period.
• Manufactuers making Android handsets represent over 50% of the top 15 manufacturers, with Samsung at the number two spot.

Of course, the giants are still Apple and RIM, but with this kind of growth Android can't be too far from grabbing the number 2 spot.  I'm sure the release of the Droid Incredible and the EVO 4G will bump these numbers even higher. The whole situation has inspired me to remove my ad blocking software so I can do my part. [via businesswire.com]

You've read our Verizon Droid Incredible review. You've watched the unboxing. You followed along through the software walkthrough and compared it to the Evo 4G and Nexus One.

Now it's time to win one. That's right, we're giving away a Droid Incredible to one incredibly (finally, our first "incredible pun") lucky Android Central reader. Details after the break.

Everyone's heard of the iPad by now, ICD has announced their Gemini tablet, HTC jumps in with their own tablet news, and now Toshiba says they're getting into the battle. It's like the Cold War all over again, but this time instead of mutually assured destruction we'll just have a bunch of broke gadget lovers.

Focusing on media consumption, Toshiba plans on offering tablet versions running Android as well as versions with Windows 7. Along with multiple options for operating systems, they're also looking at different form factors, including a dual-screen version. No specs as of yet, but it's got me interested (as I type from my Toshiba laptop).

Now, could somebody please tell me what to do with a dual-screen tablet computer? [Reuters via Electronista]

Whether you were waiting for an HTC device on Verizon, counting down the days until your contract expired, or just in the market for something new, today is the day you can head online to Verizon Wireless and pre-order the HTC Droid Incredible.

Everything tells us it was worth the wait, it looks like another awesome Android device.  Snapdragon, SenseUI, 3.7-inch AMOLED, 8-megapixel camera, you name it, it's in there.  The best part -- order it today and have it in your clutches on the 29th.

Pricing also is nice, at only $199.99 (after $100.00 mail-in rebate). You will need a Smartphone plan of course, but look at the bang you'll be getting for your buck.  With the Motorola Droid's industrial look and feel, and now the Incredible with its sexy sleekness, Verizon has quite the Android Top-Dawg line-up going on for 2010.  Hit the break for the full presser again, and tell us if you got one ordered in the comments.  And don't forget to check out our Droid Incredible forums to share your last few painful days of waiting and speculating how Incredible it's gonna be with us all.

The Verizon Droid Incredible marks the first time HTC's updated Sense user interface is actually available on a phone in the United States. (It's also coming later this year on the Sprint Evo 4G and has been available for some weeks in Europe.) Here we take a quick look at the major software features on the Droid Incredible, including Sense and a few of the basic apps.

Here it is, folks, the Verizon HTC Droid Incredible, with Android 2.1, the Sense user interface, a 3.7-inch AMOLED touchscreen, 8-megapixel camera, and ... and ... Well, just watch the video.

The Verizon Droid Incredible, Sprint Evo 4G and Google Nexus One -- three of the biggest, baddest Android phones available today (erm, or soon, in the case of the first two). But which should you get? After the break, we put the three phones against each other head to head, spec for spec. Which comes out on top? Click through to find out.
