I wonder how much that'll bring Lucus.

I looked it up. It reminds me of the ENV3 touch with it having the key pad.

A friend of mine has been wanting to get a GPS for running and the Iphone has an app that'll do all of that for you. He was going to get a watch but swears that the Iphone is going to come to Verizon soon. Is the droid the answer to the Iphone or is Iphone really coming to Verizon?

At&t has a 5 year contrat with apple inc. For exclusive rigt to the iphone. So probably not.. unless that contract from 2007 is void...
Since there is alot of talk about a cdma iphone

But everying the iphone does, the droids do.

It has a huge, high-res screen but I don't think the whole phone is any larger than an iPhone.

Yeah, that's what I meant - like a 4.5 inch screen? Looks sharp.

Iphone is a great phone that does alot of great thing, and it has taken mobile computing into the future with its great mix of software and hardware. Android is up and coming and the droid is one of the better android powered phones out there (at least until this summer,).

Problem with the droid is that people still see the droid as its own phone, not a phone running on android.If you say that your phone runs on android a majority of the people out therer will ask if its the droid, not knowing that other phones run android.

an amazing feat of marketing from big red considering how late they came to the open handset alliance.

Why would people think a droid is a motorola droid?
I mean damn its not even the first of its kind.
The G1 was the first android...
Or if anything think its a nexus one.............. Lol
