Verizon phases out Droid Eris, Incredible next?

Verizon phases out Droid Eris, Incredible next? According to Droid-Life, Verizon has quietly phased out the Droid Eris smartphone, removing it from its active smartphone roster.
The site tried filtering Verizon's site by smartphone>Android>HTC and found the Eris completely removed except for some accessories and support documents.

Additionally, Droid-Life posted a "phaseout/closeout" list and besides the Eris, the Droid Incredible is also apparently set to be phased out.

The Incredible is Verizon's top-of-the-line Android device, and was only launched two months ago.

So far, off the list, the Eris and the Tour have already been phased out, giving more fuel to the rumor that the list is accurate.

Fake. This came from AndroidForums.com and originated from a thread where a guy said "His friend told him.."

Fake or not it wouldnt surprise me.While Mobile phones Technology and development is peaking the life expectancy of every mobile phone gets shorter and shorter. nowadays a phone can be considered old news after 6 months. even apple makes sure theyre phones dont stick around too long by simply replacing them every year with a newer version leaving the owners with an 8-9 months delusion untill their bubble is burst with news of the upcoming "big thing".

Wouldn't surprise me if they killed off the incredible when the new moto droid comes out.

Roborock Saros 10 review - Great, but not perfect Roborock Saros 10 review - Great, but not perfect
We tested Roborock Saros 10 robot vacuum for more than two months in order to see whether it is really worth its hefty price tag. The mopping, self-emptying Saros 10 was mostly great, even perfect. But its object avoidance was bit disappointing.

We put the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra through a very, very long review process. The $1800 mopping robot vacuum is almost perfect, but its obstacle avoidance was surprisingly bad, considering the price - and compared to its competitors.
