Thank you for the clarification. But I guess that leaves my main concern intact in that I wouldn't want to be limited to my updates because of another company. The only benifit I have found for Sense is that it works a little better with Exchange calendaring which I could care less about. While the Incredible ships with 2.1 I am concerned it will fall behind like the Eris. If anyone knows of great features Sense offers I would love to know.
So what is the software ontop of Droid if the HTCs are Sense?
