In simple terms, the back changed. Therefore the back on the Incredible could change.
I hate to point it out, cause I know there was just a little "tiff" in here, but as far as I know we never saw any pictures of the back of the Bravo (Now Desire) before it was officially released. So, we don't know if the back changed or not.
As far as the front changing: I think the reason it looks so different is because of lighting. The picture was taken in low light. If you look at this picture below, the phone looks pretty much the same as the released version, except for some last minute things to dress it up, such as metal plating for buttons and the aluminum looking shroud around the screen.
So, if your argument was that the Incredible could look differently and change some cosmetically before it is released...I would agree. It could look WAY better by the time it's released. I'd also have to agree that what we've seen of the Incredible so far is probably just an early version of it, like the picture of the Desire above. So, the Incredible could look a lot more "slick," if you will, by the time it is released. I personally think that it already looks great, but some cosmetic changes to make it look more in-line with HTC''s recent phone releases would be a VERY nice addition. It would be nice to see the Incredible look more "professional" as opposed to looking so "teenager." Know what I mean? However, if Verizon is smart they'll do just what they're doing and market it where more ages of people would be interested in it, and unfortunately, making it look a LITTLE more like a toy or entertainment device will make younger people want it and us older tech geeks who really just want the specs will buy it too. It's really a very intelligent approach if you think about it. Just my two cents.
