Motorola Droid … Motorola’s new Droid phone is looking good, and sets the standard for Android-based devices. “The key to the Droid’s success is its platform. It is the first smartphone to ship with Google Android 2.0 (Eclair), the next-generation version of that operating system. Running on a superior Texas Instruments OMAP 3430 processor, that translates to a snappiness that wasn’t apparent in earlier Android phones and, until now, was limited only to the iPhone and Palm Pre, the latter of which shares the same chip. Android has always offered multitasking and a clean, touch-optimized interface, but now the hardware has caught up sufficiently to allow the OS to really shine. Scrolling is incredibly quick and transitions are on point.” More
– It has a QWERTY slide-out keyboard.
– The Droid will be available via Verizon from November 6.
