Anyone own a Droid from Verizon?

Post by blackjack »

My "New Every Two" is coming up in October and since they don't yet have the iPhone at Verizon I'm considering a Droid.

Do you have one? Incredible vs. Droid X?

What do you like vs. dislike?

Is the Droid X too big?

I'm worried about my phone being smarter than me...

My kids got me a Droid for Father's Day. It's the first smart phone I've owned and I love it.

I too own a droid. I have the earlier motorola model. I really like it . I had mine modded early from someone who knew how. One complaint is the battery doesn't last long before you need to charge it. I bought two extra batteries and a separate charger off of ebay. I throw the extra batteries in my pocket in case I need them. The extra charger from ebay charges batteries without them being in the phone. A must have App for Droid is Doubletwist. It makes it easier to get your Itunes Library on your Droid. I also hear the Iphone is very close to being a verizon option. The games that are available for Iphones are better in my opinion.

I have an old phone you can't get at Verizon anymore but I love it. You could play with it but it sounds like you already have an offer from Dave :lol:

I have the Droid X. It rocks my socks. Don't know it's any better than the Incredible, but I really like it. It is big, but it feels like a "real" phone when you hold it. I don't think it's TOO big. It is definitely smarter than me, though. :lol: I was sick when I got it, so I haven't set it up quite the way I want it, but hubby has his all pimped out.

There's live wallpaper of the solar system and you can finger and spin Uranus. :wink:

Fondling my phone is the funnest thing ever.

I haven't figured out how to use Swype effectively yet.

It's not the size of the phone, it's what you can do with it. That's what us all guys with small phones say
