What is the HTC Desire?

I'm thinking that the Desire is Verizon's version of the Hero since Boy Genius confirmed that the Hero is coming to Verizon in November and it could be renamed. Plus, Verizon has said there are only 2 android phones coming to Verizon this year and one is the Droid so the other has got to be the Hero/Desire and since there are screenshots of Verizon's system with the Desire android phone I would assume that it is the Hero renamed and hopefully not gimped.

I'm wondering if this is just the Verizon version of the Hero. My boss saw the Droid and liked it, but now he wants the Desire. He has tried the Hero in the store and loves it. I think the Hero/Desire looks way better than the Droid, but I'm attracted to Android 2.0 and the faster processor.

Anyone have any info on if this is really just a renamed Hero?
