Everything Dream was sent a short clip of a sweet looking device that seems to fit the description of HTC’s Dream phone powered-by Android OS!

The video footage of what might be the HTC Dream looks mighty pleasing and could possibly be the first-ever iPhone 3G killer. How and why you might ask? It’s simply because the Dream offers every single features on the iPhone 3G and more. By more, I mean a slide out QWERTY keyboard, same 3.5-inch touchscreen, GPS, and did I mention the goodness of Android OS?

HTC recently reaffirmed that the Dream phone is on schedule for Q4 launch, debunking rumors of a delay by analyst Trip Chowdhry of Global Equities Research. According to Chowdhry, HTC is “having structural problems to incorporate Google’s demanded feature set”, while Google “is not able to attract enough developers because toolkits offered by Microsoft, Apple, RIM and Nokia’s Symbian software group have sucked up software developers’ attention.” HTC reached out to sister site Android Community to set the record straight, and reiterate - as Google themselves did back in June - that Chowdhry’s information is incorrect and that HTC are still on track for a Q4 launch.
