NOOOOOO!!!! I need my Passion on Verizon!!!

I posted this article I found in another thread but I'll post it here too.

Mystery: HTC Passion (Dragon) Headed to T-Mobile UK? - PhoneDog Cell Phone News & Articles

I have been trying to find out information on the Passion and I found this article. Some of you may have read it before but it is different than all the other message boards and articles I have read. I just thought i should post it to get your opinion. The guy does make some sense when he says why would verizon put so much money and effort into promoting the Droid when it has a more powerful phone coming out around the same time?

Since I am new to the Smart phone game please don't take offense if I am wrong. :eek:

I think the reason we hear the names Dragon and Passion is the same reason we have Droid and Milestone, or Hero and Eris. Same basic phone, one model for GSM and one for CDMA. Hence why I say the Dragon is a GSM version of the Passion.

also look at the four button layout on the one picture we have of the passion. Its the same 4 button layout that verizon used on the Droid. I thought I read somewhere that Verizon wanted to use this same 4 button layout on most all of their android devices.

I dont think the correct question in terms of the Passion and Verizon is not if, but when.
