    No. It's specific to the Atrix. It connects into the phone's usb port so unless your phone is the same size with the USB port in the same location, it won't work.

    Why would we be jelly? We all had a choice on which phone to get. If we wanted an iPhone, we'd get an iPhone. Why would we buy a Droid if we were just gonna be jealous of an iPhone? Makes no sense...

    For battery life, it depends on the phone and which version of Android you're running. More processor power, dual processors, memory size and multitasking will drain a phone quick. If you turn everything on it will drain quickly as well (GPS, WiFi, Bluetooths, etc). Plus, LTE is very power hungry, which is probably why Apple didn't come out with one yet. My buddy's LTE phone drains in a couple of hours. As I stated earlier, my wife has the iPhone 4 and I have an Android. She loves hers, I love mine.

    If their phones didn't have a task killer on them, or they weren't managing their memory, they could be running a whole slew of apps while you're only running one. That all takes power. Older android systems didn't have one. You had to download an app to kill other apps. It wasn't until Froyo that a task killer was built in.

    Yep. I could have gone with an iPhone. It would have been cheaper too. But it wouldn't have nearly the capability.

    Its like comparing a mustang to a camero.

    Or and Tacoma to the Nissan frontier:D

    everyone has their pros and cons. For me. Iphone fit my needs and performs good in every way I need it. Not one problem.

    I also run a MacbookPro and Ipad so everything is user friendly for me. After having an HP laptop and a droid phone. Ill never go back to them. Apple is the only way Ill go.

    Just to be clear, Android is the operating system. Droid is a specific phone offered by Motorola available at Verizon. All Droid phones have the Android operating system but not all Android phones are Droids. Did you have a Droid or a different Android phone. It also helps to know which Android OS. Android 1.6 was very rudimentary. Gingerbread or Honeycomb are the newer OSes with many updated features. You wouldn't compare the functionality of an original iPhone with a newer Android phone.
