Well I guess that is pretty good for a phone. But if I want a good camera, I get a good camera, not a phone. Na mean? | ||

Noname|Boom wrote ... So is the Droid able to have screen-position-sensitive (I don't know if there's a more technical name) apps like the iPhone? Because if it does, I'd totally get it once more bugs get fixed and I am able to switch after my "contract" with my LG Chocolate. I was even thinking about JUST getting an iPod Touch for the apps and keeping a normal phone, but this is starting to make me think otherwise (I don't think it's possible to change services to get an iPhone for me right now, anyways). Well if you mean an accelerometer (so you can tilt the phone and the window goes into landscape mode, or for example you control a ball in a labyrinth), then yes. If you mean you can "click" and drag things on the screen with your finger, then yes again. @ buddha: I really don't feel like carrying a phone, iPod, netbook, and a camera on me at all times (along with my wallet, and pocket knife when I'm at work). That would be far to much. The droid has the functionality of all these things in a compact size. Think of it like a computer with a phone attached to it. |

You just made my decision for me toasters. Thank you. My verizon plan is up in a month and i wasnt sure if i should get one. Im not the kind of person that gets this multimedia shit... but since im a tech guy... i should. And i like that the qwerty keyboard isnt touchscreen. I suck with those cuz of my fat fingers. Right now im using a Motorola KRAZR or whatever its called.... And its the first version. Its slim, does simple shit, has a camera, takes video and dials numbers. Plus its a flip which i cant seem to wanna get rid of but oh well... So this is a big switch. The GPS is the selling point for me too. Ive been doing lots of traveling lately, especially in Florida when i fly down there. Been doing that a lot lately. Thanks again toasters. |

I had an event through best buy at this movie theater. nobody knew how to get there, so I pulled out my phone and gave the voice command "directions to showcase cinemas, Woburn." The gps popped up and had turn by turn directions on how to get there. It's all the little features google put in there that add up. | ||

How much does this bad boy cost? And which Best Buy do you work at, so I can visit? How close to Woburn are you, since that showcase is a 5 minute drive from my house roughly (no traffic) |

Man I had no idea you were so close. I work at the Best Buy in Danvers. and it goes for 199 if you sign up or your contract is expired (599 if you just want the phone). |

I as an iPhone owner, saw and used a Droid first hand today. Let me just say this... SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously, the battery blows, the apps are complicated and the overall scheme sucks dick... not to mention the fuckin phone itself is huge... There is nothing good about the Droid... Mac wins again... If it's the coverage you're looking for just jailbreak the iphone and use a sim card. |
