    Hello,

    My DH and I are getting ready to upgrade to Smart Phones. We're trying to decide which Verizon android product to get. Any opinions.

    I'm planning on getting a Droid since it has the option of using a regular keyboard or the touch screen. Not sure if you've used a touch screen or not, but they're kind of a pain to text on. Also, my boyfriend's (not a droid, but I forget what it is) smart phone does this weird thing where you have to push a letter to the left to get to the desired letter to its right.

    Good luck choosing!

    I, too, am obsessed with my droid. Although I will say that when I make a list of things that the phone does really well... making actual phone calls is not at the top of the list. I don't know if it's just me, but I drop calls a good bit and the sound quality is just OK. As my friend, Chad, says,"I love having to call you back and say 'hey, I lost you because you have a toy for a phone'." 

    It is handy, though. I use it for navigation, quick web searches, and games (of course). I'll be glad when they can work out Flash Player, the lack of it hinders my internet browsing a bit.

    I adore my droid. best thing I ever purchased. The keyboard was a big selling point for me. Turns out that I rarely use it. It is too big for my small fingers.

    My coworker brought in the HTC recently and let me play with it. I have to admit, I was smitten. It is thinner and lighter than the droid. Having used my droid for 3 months now, I realize the keyboard isn't important and I quickly got used to typing on the screen.

    From what I could tell, the HTC did everything my Droid does. Although a friend of mine has another Android phone (not sure which) and while it works well, it doesn't sync well with the google apps (gmail and calendar) like mine does. So perhaps that is the biggest advantage of the Motorola Droid.

    I didn't know about the new Droid coming out. Dangit.

    I have Sprint so I have the EVO which I think is almost the same as the incredible I just have 4G access.  I friggin LOVE IT.  I've had a blackberry for the last 2 years and I don't miss it.  Typing is a little hard at first but the phone adjusts to the way you hit the screen/keys so eventually even when you hit the wrong key it'll know what you meant to type.  Love love love

    My husband is all excited about getting a Droid next month. He really wants the new one (that hasn't come out yet). If it weren't for him, I'd have no idea what the Droid was :P.

    I'd say wait for the Droid 2 & see how you like it. I like to wait a few weeks after something comes out to make sure there's no issues with it/ customers like it & you can see reviews (like the new iphone that has issues). But definately get a Droid, they're supposed to be amazing!!

    Circutcity.com has free droids with verizon right now. My husband & I are going to get them once his Sprint contract ends next month, so we're hoping they still have em then :)

    I LOVE my droid.  I have the one w/o the keyboard (so it's smaller/thinner).  The touch screen take a little bit of time to get used to, but I'm faster on it now than I was on my old Blackberry.  I haven't had any problems at all w/ dropped calls, etc.

    Ended up buying the new Samsung Fascinate with Verzion. IT is an Android phone. I loved the screen and the feel of the thing, the X just felt too big and was on backorder. Now I've got to learn to use it and figure out what Apps I want.
