Default 2 different Desires?

Hi Folks

Here on xda-developers the HTC Desire has been linked to the Droid Eris, but checking out the US and European HTC sites they are different phones.

The European Desire doesn't launch until the first week in April (pre-ordered mine yesterday) but it seems the Droid Eris has been out on Verizon for short period already.

Can anyone shed any light?
Cheers,
JT
