Motorola's Droid isn't such a dud after all according to an
independent analyst who has been monitoring Verizon's closely-watched
Google phone sales and puts the current tally at at least 400,000
sold.
Earlier this week BroadPoint AmTech analyst Mark McKechnie put his
best guess at about 100,000 Droids sold on the debut weekend for the
heavily hyped $200 Google Android-powered phone. The 100,000 estimate
had been the most widely circulated guess on consumer demand for the
Droid to date.
"This is a moving target," says Michael Cote of the Cote
Collaborative. "But as of this morning, they have sold at least four
times as many as that."
