HTC Scorpion claims “most lusted after Android device” title…for the next few days anyway.

Think the HTC Incredible is where it’s at for future Android phones? Sure it’s pretty meaty on paper. But that was last week’s paper. This week is completely different and in need of a new “savior”. The Android desires of lust from last week were powered by wimpy 1.0GHz processors. The HTC Scorpion: 1.5GHz. As excited as I am, I have to stress that this is rumor for now. A rumor I very much hope materializes.

Any doubts you may have can be slightly contained as after looking over that leaked HTC roadmap and also taking into account the recent news of 1.3GHz and 1.5GHz Qualcomm chips dropping later this year, a 1.5GHz device doesn’t seem too far off now does it?

Let’s not forget that the slated release for those new Qualcomm chips wasn’t until later this year. And we also can’t forget that they were just announced this week. Getting back to that 1.5GHz processor mentioned above, the documents surrounding the 1.3 and 1.5GHz processors had the 1.5GHz variant coming to town as a dual-core. Are there going to be more than one chip with this clock speed?

With the release of the above information so close, could it be fake? It’s always a possibility. One that I’m going to really hope is true. I don’t know about you, but I sure would like a 1.5GHz smartphone. My current crop of phones looks less and less significant each and every day. *sigh*
