    looks like every other motorola? have you even seen it? its badass as hell! i hate how iphone owners are bashing the hell out of it for no real reason. i like iphone's and i'd like to have one but they want too much for the monthly plan. the droid is badass as hell and completely untouched by verizon, meaning you can actually use the gps and other features taht VZ so often disables. i hate VZ but i may be getting this bad boy

    Yes I have seen it. The real website. I'm not bashing anything, I'm just stating my own opinion.

    And for the record, I'm only paying $100 a month for my iPhone. My stupid LG Dare was $175 a month (did not has the VZ GPS or anything), Not even unlimited minutes.

    With my iPhone, Everything is included. I have 3x as many minutes and Unlimited texting as the VZ service.

    All you need is $260 and you got one.


    $160 for the termination fee and $100 for the iPhone 3G. (free updates-- Something that VZ will NEVER do)

    Got my droid yesterday, all I can say is im glad I got it, its by far the best phone iv ever had. I would take this phone over a iphone now that iv got to use it (i have used a iphone also). Its faster and soo easy to use.

    Not haten on iphones but im glad I waited for this phone.

    I thought i could wait and let my mom get it for me for christmas.. but I couldnt! I got mine today! wooohooo for a real keyboard! The UI on this thing is amazing and its FAST! and about the free updates. The updates were always free for my storm. The Droid is fully supporting open dev. so cooked roms will be out fast like! cant wait to try some out. I loved the versatility of all the cooked roms for my old ATT tilt. It was great. Now you can do it with full support from the service provider.

    I got the Droid on Saturday. I've had the iphone and this blows it away. Very smooth, very fast, touchscreen is very accurate. Free applications are available for just about anything (weather,sports,coupons,radio, even photoshop). My only gripe so far is that I can't seem to get the MAC address so I can add it to my wireless router filter. Any ideas would be helpful. Verizon didn't even know what Mac address was. The one guy even said "I don't know much about macs, I'm a pc guy". .. HAHA
