HTC's Dream again rumored to be first Android phone

We've been hearing about the HTC Dream (likely not pictured above) for what seems like an eternity on a tech timeline. Now "a person close to the situation" tells InfoWorld that the Dream is indeed HTC's Android phone. Remember, HTC is widely expected to be the first from the gate with a retail phone featuring Google's open source OS. The Dream is said to measure 3-inches wide by 5-inches long and feature a full QWERTY keypad that "either slides out or swivels." Right, exactly what Forbes told us 5 months ago. Still, it's always a good sign when the rumor mongers align. Whatever happens, we certainly expect the first Android phone to be exceptionally spec'd as a showcase of the OS' power and possibilities to come.

This has been pointed out in earlier posts, but maybe the mysterious HTC CONV100 mentioned two weeks ago via a filing with the Bluetooth SIG is the Android phone. Seems plausible, at least until further info about either surfaces.

Too bad the HTC Dream won't be sporting the amazing TAT Cascades UI, becuase stupid crappy Motorola licensed them first.

I can't believe I won't be playing with that beautiful UI if I buy the Dream.
