HTC JUST found out about being served days ago. The leaked came out before that. They are two different things, HTC will continue to roll out dual/pinch touch phones with android on it for years.

I'm no lawyer but Verizon would be foolish to release what Apple calls intellectual property. I would find it very hard to believe HTC had no heads up a lawsuit was coming. It's not like some process server showed up at the company and served the owner. I'm sure they had weeks or months of negotiations first. Then HTC said screw you Apple...sue us.
This lawsuit is a shot at Google anyways. If you look at the back of your Eris it says google. If the OTA doesn't show up then I suspect I'm on to something about this leak. It was leaked because Verizon isn't going to sell the Eris or the Nexus One in the next few months.
