An Improvement?

Not much in my opinion.

They made a marginal improvement to the pixel density, and put a dual core processsor in the X2. Unless there are more specifics to be announced, it doesn't seem like that much of an improvement from the original Droid X.

If the picture depicted is the actual Droid X2, they didn't appear to change anything about that either.
