[...]
Hoping Verizon passed up on the Galaxy S II due to another beast from Samsung coming soon- Well, scratch the Samsung Stratosphere off your list as it most certainly won’t be the DROID you’re looking for, according to recent rumors.

Looks like Verizon found something unsatisfactory with the last Gingerbread build for the HTC Droid Incredible and promptly pulled it from their site.
