Verizon’s HTC Desire shows up in the… dark

.
When Verizon and Google announced that they would launch several Android phones, they presented the Motorola Droid and an unnamed HTC handset. Well, this HTC handset seems to be the HTC Desire, which has just appeared in a leaked photo.

It’s said that the Desire is “extremely fast” and it uses HTC’s Sense UI (on top of Android, of course). No word yet on when Verizon will announce the handset, but this should happen pretty soon. Until then, here’s the HTC Desire in all its (darkened) glory:
