What phone did you have before?

My HTC Hero is significantly bigger than my last phone but I had a "dumb" Sony phone before.

i had this little slider samsung phone, which was also dumb. I would be texting people, and randomly it would cancel the txt and go back to the home screen. Or i'll be scrolling down my address book, and it would also go back to the homescreen at random times.

all in all, the droid is good times...the onscreen keyboard is kinda flaky, but the physical keyboard is starting to grow on me.

I'd still rather have a Nokia N900, but no CDMA version. ;_;

while the droid intrigues me, i'm not too keen with all the google-ness of it.

i'm still hearing rumors the Pre is coming to verizon. i like it's size and heard good stuff from people i know who use it.

It is hitting Verizon Q1 of 2010.

Rumor has it Verizon is releasing a new Android phone on BF. It's supposed to have a 1ghz snapdragon processor, as opposed to the ~525mhz on the Droid.

I believe it's called the Passion. If this happens, you should be able to swap out the Droid for the Passion minus the restocking fee.

i've heard rumors for that the htc passion also, but it's been lacking news lately, which is why i got the droid instead.

whatever happened to verizon's open network?

Airencracken · 11-24-2009, 03:16 PM

The passion also lacks a physical keyboard. Which is a deal breaker. For me at least.

I am so tempting to get the Nokia N900 but Amazon still has it on pre-order.
