I tried to get Verizon to match but it didn't work.

however, this IS inconsistent with their tagline of "not your next phone, but the one after that", in which case its must-haveness should carry over at least to 2010.]]>Oct 21st 2009 9:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/Oct 21st 2009 8:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/Oct 21st 2009 8:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/Besides that, how can it be the device of the year when it comes out in late 2009?

MAYBE is it sells 1+ million the first weekend, and 7 million before the end of the year (impossible). Sorry but the iphone really is the most desired product of 2009, like it or not.]]>Oct 21st 2009 9:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/
"...Must Have Device of the Year (2009)" IPhone has been dominating overall smartphone sales from Jan to Oct this year. Assuming consumers go crazy with the Droid and surpasses IPhone sales for the holiday, then VZW/Motorola only got the last 2 months for this year. Some android fanatics out there already have pre ordered the htc hero, while others already got suckered to getting the mytouch3g (with 2yr contract). I won't be surprised if apple releases a new version of their iPhone next year.]]>Oct 21st 2009 11:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/Oct 21st 2009 10:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/Oct 22nd 2009 12:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/Oct 22nd 2009 12:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/Oct 22nd 2009 12:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/
But above even all of this, the iPhone is irrelevant altogether in the face of Android. Google is here to squash Microsoft out of the mobile market, end of story. They don't care about anyone else. By the time Microsoft is marginalized to the tiniest slice of the cake, Google will have pushed its rich web applications to nearly every phone on the planet, running Android or not. When they do, Microsoft will have a choice. Suck it up and adopt these applications, or go proprietary and fail. No doubt they'll choose the latter.

Google doesn't care about the iPhone. OSX will remain on its little iPhone island while Android propagates to nearly every mid-high end phone on the planet, and the iPhone will still be running Google's applications anyway. ]]>Oct 22nd 2009 3:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/21/verizon-hosting-droid-event-on-october-28/Oct 22nd 2009 11:59PM
