I sold my BB Tour for the Droid last friday and it has been friggin' awesome so far!!! Fast, great resolution, plenty of free apps, the list goes on. I haven't found a negative part about it yet. To me, it's like an iphone with a keyboard with alot of "DROID DOES" added features. The keyboard on this thing is very useful since i don't like texting on touch screen phones. In addition, Verizon 3G internet is fast and reliable coming from T-mobile and AT&T. I say DUU IT to those peeps on the verge of getting it. I highly recommend the Moto Droid!!!

how does the browser and everything compare with the iphone?

I'm contemplating whether I should stick with the iphone : att service or switch back and try the droid. the reception on my iphone is horrible i sometimes don't recieve my calls and i get alot of call failed messages. what to do...
Browser is great... it has voice search, so it takes only one button press to activate the mic, say something, and it comes up with a google search (from there you could possibly buy something, or find directions).........very easy. Network reception is the best, never had a dropped call. Try it in person.

Everyone in my staff started asking if they could upgrade their office cell phone for the new Motorola Droid after one of them went out and got one over the weekend for personal use. That thing is awesome!! So, after seeing everyone drooling over the new toy, we went ahead and ordered new Droids for everyone in the office. Can't wait to get my hands on mine Hope it works well with the E60...

the only negative ive seen so far of the droid is the weak memory: 512MB (of which only half can be used to save apps onto vs. the iphones upto 32G. and since droid doesnt let you save your apps to the SD card, youre severely limited to what you can download onto the phone.

Get this. I set my credentials in the native Facebook app, set to NOT synchronize contacts.

The Facebook contacts DO NOT get to the Contact list, but they DO make it to my I-Drive. So I scroll through my contacts and see all of my old girlfriends, class Presidents, etc. Why?
