Alrighty, here we go:
Android&Dom over on the Incredible thread made a good comment that HTC Eris is ADR6200VW and that if the corresponding battery model could be found it may lend credence to PB31200 being the Incredible. Well, sure enough BTR6200 is the OEM battery model for the Eris (link).

So, what's left is explaining the 2.1+EDR and I think I have an explanation: The bluetooth cert got a newer version of the Incredible software.
The bluetooth page (here) lists core version 2.1+EDR as has been stated but it also lists software version 0.68.0.1. The PB31200 filing lists core version 2.0+EDR but in the T-Coil test report it lists a software version of 0.62.0.0. Why give bluetooth a newer version, who knows? Maybe they wanted the 2.1 cert and knew the SAR Testing people don't need the latest SW to do their tests.

PB31200 = Incredible \o/
