Welcome to the 2010 world of hurt with Google's Droid and Verizon
marketing.

Even the exact same Droid will have different features on different
carriers!
Will you buy into that foolishness?


Verizon's Droid will lack multi-touch while others will have it. How
can a Droid developer now write great apps like they do for the
iPhone?

Verizon's Droid will not do turn by turn Google maps while you are
talking and driving. Who cares if ou miss your turn in heavy traffic
due to an untimely call?

Verizon's Droid will not allow you to search the web for a place to
eat while talking to your workmates about a business meetup.

Verizon's Droid is extremely sluggish at times in simple things like
scrolling, changing windows etc.

Verizon's Droid has built in room for 512MB of app storage and can
run only six apps at anyone time. Think of the pain of Windows moblie
here when you forget and try to open the seventh app.

Verizon's Droid will be incompatible with the new USA iTunes virtual
'cable box', a major bummer in 2110.

Verizon's Droid is incompatible with all the online college courses at
iTunes U, a major bummer now if you are of college years.

Verizon, the nations largest overrated network with crippled phones
now has the crippled Droid.

Verizon needs to rewrite that iDon't commercial to get the word out.,
they clearly own their very own Android killer.

Yes with Verizon you get just one finger with a new Droid...

and I bet many can guess which one that is without hitting the link at
www.gearlog.com


Is this FUD ;>)
Certainly, but it is all true!

anyone who is still using itunes and a droid in the year 2110 will have
far bigger problems than being incompatible with a product that is just
a rumour in 2009.

Sure beats the hell out of having a 3G map that looks like this:

EDGE is like connecting your iphone to an old dialup BBS!...(c;]

Duhh.....

I don't give a shit if it has the power of a Cray mainframe, the graphics
of a workstation at Dreamworks and 10TB of storage. If it doesn't have 3G
internet....IT SUCKS!

Good, I don't want anything remotely Apple touching my damn Moto.

See above.

Shall I count out the crips on the fucking iPhone? The one that took
2 years to record video and have MMS and STILL doesn't on the early
model? I don't have that much time or bandwith.

That stupid P&Z seems to be the best if not the only ammo you've
got. You suck as a troll.

Well, it was important enough for several folks to
comment on. Fortunately, they were not burdened
by Microsoft shitware which fails to properly
implement a decade-old standard. - Sam

But after your last post, I seriously doubt your ability to count
past 3.
