Droid 2 'Coming Soon' Says Newspaper Ad

A Verizon Wireless advertisement spotted in a newspaper over the weekend claims that the Motorola Droid 2, which hasn't been announced yet, is "coming soon."

The advertisement's headline reads "Rule Your Empire With Iron Thumbs. Introducing Droid 2 -- with a NEW advanced keyboard." Is this how Verizon Wireless plans to make information about the Droid 2 public? To-date, it has ignored pretty much every report, rumor, and hint that the Droid 2 is an actual device launching on its network.
