Read this, doublecee. It gave me the biggest nerdboner. I really never read much up on it but now, damn I want me some DROID!


Droid – the First Motorola Android-based Phone

Motorola will soon come with its first mobile device developed in partnership with Google to feature the next-generation open Android platform phone, named Droid. It is slightly thicker than the iPhone but has the thinnest touch QWERTY slider available on the market. It seems to be the fastest Android device and it’s no surprise because it has an ARM Cortex A8 TI OMAP3430 processor. The display, according to the FCC information, is a massive high 854×480 pixels resolution, which is 2-3 times the space as the Palm Pre, Android G1 or iPhone.

Motorola Droid is 3G-capable. Its industry-leading 3.7-inch display allows the best view of websites and easily zooms with a double tap for faster navigating. Due to its powerful processor, Flash and full HTML browser, Droid delivers Web pages, 3D graphics and videos up to two-times faster than other devices, in beautiful 16-million color high-definition.

Its 16:9 high-resolution screen frame is ideal for watching clips or downloaded videos, and playback and YouTube upload over 3G Wi-Fi can be watched at DVD quality video. A built-in 5 megapixel camera provided with dual LED flash has the quality of a dedicated digital camera with auto focus and zoom. Users can store up to 16GB of content or insert a memory card up to 32GB.

Motorola Droid sets new standards for smartphones. The power of Web search gets a new meaning. Motorola Droid allows you to type or speak your search with voice command, and you get results from the web, but also anything you want – contacts, music, photos, applications and more. You don’t have to dig into menus anymore to find what you need; everything is available from the home screen.

Droid is for costumers looking for an ultimate web browsing experience.

Motorola Droid will be available on the 1st of December in North America, exclusively on Verizon Wireless.

This is long over due for Verizon. Can't wait to see it.

Anyone know of any tricks to get out of paying out the ass to upgrade?

You eligible for new customer price on a phone quite a few months before your contract is up (I'm eligible now even though my contract ends in April), but to get the price discount you need to wait till the contract is up.

But if you wanted to walk in tomorrow after renewing a contract three months ago or something along those lines...you won't get out of paying the FULL retail price.

Yeah. From what i've seen and had they usually have it in two pieces. 1 clips to the sliding part of the phone the other to the non sliding part

Best Buy apparently already has them on the shelves for this phone. If it's anything like my old Razr though, it'll be going naked for sure. I might put a Phantomskinz on the screen to limit the fingerprint oil smudge factor and give me that piece of mind factor though. Honestly, I could care less about the back getting all scratched up though. My Razr has wings.
