First Look: Motorola Droid X

1. I own the Motorola Droid on Verizon. I hate it. My girlfriend now has it (she wants me to cancel it and add her onto my AT&T account with the new iPhone...)

-I have also carried just about every iteration of Android software and hardware available for my job (currently I'm using the Motorola Cliq, I don't have a MyTouch slide demo yet or a Garmin though I'd love to have the former of the two) I've played with the MyTouch slide a lot and I absolutely love it. I'll take it over the EVO any day, and thats not a word of lie. For most people it works awesome. (didn't I say exactly that in some other post today???? but I "hate android phones?")

2. I love Android, hate the constant name-calling a lot of it's on-line fans constantly use as a way to "win" their arguments. Maybe you don't talk about "the coo-laid" or use terms like "iSheep" and "i[diot]Phone" but come on, name calling seems to be the primary attack people use against the iPhone!!!!

I mean, dear god, one of these guys has a gravatar of a robot pissing on an Apple... really???????

I absolutely think the iPhone is a better phone on a ton of different levels, but why should I apologize for that? I'm usually not that antagonistic, sometimes I'm easily annoyed though.

3. I'd hardly call comparing an old Motorola-designed phone to a new Motorola-designed phone a "negative" comment. Although I'll quickly admit my first post on the Motorola X announcement news item was a little inflammatory. But in all fairness I wasn't making fun of it's FANS, only the fact that the phone was announced the day before the iPhone is set to be released, which was a valid point.

Most of the time though, when I talk about the iPhone on an Android post it's in response to someone's comparison to the iPhone. I tend to stay on topic and you, of all people, know that.

Anyway, back to the point I was making in the original post:

The Motorola X, from a side shot, can easily be confused with the Motorola Zine.
