I really don't think any phone will take iphone's "mindshare" away, and that isn't something they should always look to do, anyway. Looks like a solid phone, can't wait to get my hands on it. Go Moto!]]>Oct 30th 2009 12:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/30/motorola-droid-review/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/30/motorola-droid-review/
Yeah, my Sprint HTC Diamond, which is a generation out of date came with a very slick Youtube app that works very well. Very nice full screen playback.

I don't know about non-HTC WinMo devices though, I'm not sure if the Youtube app might be an HTC special.]]>Oct 30th 2009 12:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/30/motorola-droid-review/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/30/motorola-droid-review/
Especially since you mentioned how similar they are in size.

So what? Cameras should not be an issue in this kind of phones. A good camera is basically a big sensor and sharp optics. Phone cameras will never get any of those right.

The Droid is squarely pitted against the iPhone by VZW. What does this device get compared to for 99% of the review?? Other Android devices. Every other phone gets compared to the iPhone because it's the benchmark for cell phones. The Droid has potential to be an iPhone killer and it gets a small mention in the end. I understand your trying to hide your fanboyism but after the Ballmer interview and this review it's loud and clear. It's like you're trying to help Apple since they won't be releasing their rebuttle to the Droid(and other high end phones that are coming out) until June. A 1 year product cycle in the cell phone industry looks like its getting to be too long.]]>Oct 30th 2009 1:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/30/motorola-droid-review/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/30/motorola-droid-review/Oct 30th 2009 2:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/30/motorola-droid-review/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/30/motorola-droid-review/

Liar. You wrote that review according to your profile.

BUT you guys need to stop the Apple marketing bandwagon by talking about "mindshare" they just mentioned that buzzword on CNBC, Digg, PCworld, and most wall-street analysts. Please don't go there--that's just helping wall street's Apple coffers.

AND

"application selection feels thin in both quantity and quality"

Again, and again, goto the Apple appstore: 2% of the appstore are apps from 1 VENDOR (same app, different content), 50% of app in the appstore are content based apps that either use the same code baseline--they're not unique apps in the end. Andoird has the same problem, but Apple quantity is a illusion and quality is subjective.]]>Oct 30th 2009 1:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/30/motorola-droid-review/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/30/motorola-droid-review/
