Summary: For those of you still holding out for the HTC Droid Incredible, good news! The smartphone is now in stock again, but you might want to act fast on this one as there’s no telling how long it will last.

For those of you still holding out for the HTC Droid Incredible, good news! The smartphone is now in stock again, but you might want to act fast on this one as there’s no telling how long it will last.

The Droid Incredible has been incredibly popular since its debut onto the smartphone scene, with demand surpassing the supply back in May. But between high demand and a AMOLED shortage, the Droid Incredible has been on back order for most of the summer. Verizon Wireless even issued gift cards to waiting customers just to keep them happy…and perhaps to prevent them from buying other large summer releases like the iPhone 4, Droid X and now the Droid 2.

But now, the Incredible is live for purchase on Verizon’s website again. Pricing is set still at $199.99 after rebates, with the signing of a two-year service agreement and picking up a data plan.

The Droid Incredible is lined up to get an Android 2.2 update this month, so it looks like the stars are truly aligning for Verizon. Well, with the exception of that big product roadmap leak this morning.
