Verizon Wireless won't talk about it yet, but the company is reportedly readying an HTC smartphone based on Google's Android operating system for release this month.

An "official" staging site for the HTC Incredible was uncovered Wednesday by Phandroid, a site for Android phone fans. While the site only said the Incredible was "coming soon," the DailyTech blog showed a staging site that said the smartphone is coming April 29.

Verizon Wireless declined comment when contacted by InformationWeek.
