On Verizon’s big Android day where they’ve launched 2 Android powered devices, a 3rd one comes out of the shadows. The Saygus V1 as discovered by Joel at Gear Diary. It looks very similar, including the weirdly placed dpad, to the Motorola Droid. Joel doesn’t know if this one will come to Verizon like the Motorola made “Droid” and the HTC “Droid Eris”.  It is a CDMA phone so the assumption is going to that it’s a 3rd “Droid” for Verizon.
