An early Christmas offering from Big Red! a price cut for the Motorola Droid 2. It was last listed for $199 now, its down to $149.99. Now this is a nice treat from Verizon, but Droidlife read this phenomenon as the end of the Droid 2. Why? Because when the original Droid's price was cut way back then it was the signal for the up coming Droid X and the Droid 2. Now if we follow that analogy, then we might be seeing the end of the Droid 2 plus the rumors and leaks of the Droid 2 Global it just makes perfect sense. The Droid X by the way isn't giving us any good treats for Christmas and holds the price tag it was given at first. We might see it's price, though to be cut in the coming weeks, who knows?

If you follow the analogy above, then the Incredible HD might be true, says my source.
