Rumors briefly sparked overnight of an early Verizon iPhone launch that were discredited today with a countering leak. Following a memo that an "Iconic Device" would start pre-orders at Verizon on November 9, speculation had surfaced at TUAW that it was an Apple handset; the device has since been revealed to be the Motorola Droid Pro. A posting earlier the same day from Android Central attached the Android phone to the same "Iconic Device" label, a November 9 pre-order date and a November 18 ship date.
