Blackberry = solid. Android is Verizon's first big open developement device. Thousands of more apps than BB's App World. Google Market is unbelievable. Androind on Verizon's network will be big.

that is supposedly one of the things the droid has over the iphone it runs alot of its stuff off google as it is connected to it directly so there isnt a need to purchase extra ish or pay extra for certain services as you can acquire them through google.

This reply brought to you from the Motorola Droid

Haha oh brother.

I've still got my old beat-up Motorola V3 - the screen is smashed, and there's cellotape over it but as long as I can make calls and send the occasional text I couldn't care less.

Droid has Google Maps with GPS pre-installed for free. It has 'street view' which shows the actual view from the street instead of a map - SICK!!

completely agree.

the phone companies have cashed in really well with mobiles. at one time, people talked on the phone when they were home, or had their answering machines get messages. then called people back. it wasnt a problem.

now, 10 year old kids "need" to be contact-able immediately...i mean, wtf?!

and SMS was a mechanism to message a group of people at the price of one call. Now it's used for everything. it blows my mind that someone would SMS someone with a 1-10 word message, then go back and forth dozens of times when it couldve been done in a single 30 second phonecall.

yes, mobile phone envy is veri definitely fucked up.

Regardless of whether anyone thinks they're necessary or not, the Droid is a beast of a phone. If I wasn't locked into my Storm contract for another year, I'd definitely get it.
