The Droid is human...

Now's the time for us to rise up and conquer, before they evolve and it's too late!

@ OsgoodMEO:

I can understand maybe raising the ETF and then lowering it at a quicker rate like other people were saying. They obviously make their money back on the required data plan for the term of the contract, so why don't customers get a break off the monthly plan once they're off contract, or if they buy the phone out-right?

I don't think they're hurting that much when people pay $175 + subsidized cost of the phone, and flip it. They make more than the difference back on people who purchase that same flipped phone, and activate it, off contract, on a plan that's just as much as the "on-contract" plan. Actually, if the phone gets activated on Verizon's network anyways, they make MORE money. The customers pay for it either way.

Now if they followed T-Mobiles new off-contract and on-contract Everything pricing, then it'd be a different story.

That's probably Sprint Nav, which is powered by TeleNav.

Sweet results.

Out of all the sites, why did Android pull Google News slower? You need to make some tweaks for your own sites!

I think I missed something...

"while Even More Plus' is two installments (e.g. $25 per month for the same device at the $500 full price)"

Did you mean 2 installments of $250, or 20 installments of $25 to equal the $500?

So clapping because of their excitement for the first grand opening is copying Apple? Where does it end?

What about having a smile on their face, as hundreds of people are cheering?

Hopefully they sell cameras... that last video was crap!

@ Eric B

It's 1440mAh.

Maybe they'll have digital music recognition to fix the mixed-matched meta data on some of my music. That would be slick!

I don't like the huge pad below the keyboard. I can deal with that configuration... on a laptop. My wrists go there, so it would seem like it would zoom in and out if my wrists adjust while typing. Maybe split it into 2 smaller pads (one for each hand) on both sides of the keyboard. Would make transitioning to the keyboard easier.

Cool vid tho! I like where it's going, although I would miss the hardware, and the "clicky" feedback. Kind of like using some software keyboard instead of actual keys.
