Verizon Droid

Not so much browser as screen size, I think..

I was thinking of my last phone (LG Voyager) which had an html browser but was running a slow processor that didn't handle graphics very well. I used to seek out the mobile versions of web pages to keep my sanity.
 
Who cares. The Iphone is banished to the Island of Misfit Toys because it can't get a signal. :popcorn:

Hmmm. Misifits, that has a kind of punk rock underground sound to it... Unlike someone who just kind of follows the crowd, kind of like a, um, droid 😀

Are you being serious?

Do you really browse the web and talk on the phone at the same time?

:popcorn:

All the time. I'll throw my earbud/mic in talk on the phone and while I'm at it brows the web, or check up/wright my email... It's funny how all the droid/crack fanboyz love to point out the iPhones shortcomings with not multitasking 3rd party apps, however the moment it's turned on their phones lack of ability to multitask they get all defensive and say how "that isn't necisary" 😀

In all seriousness the Droid is a great phone, and if I was stuck on Verzion... Well I'd probably wait till Q2 or Q3 '10 when the Verizon iPhone came out.... :popcorn::popcorn:

Yeah, that too. My BB Tour is pretty quick at rendering, but the screen is too small for the regular site (always zooming)...hence my little mobile mtbnj project.
 
I was hoping to get this done before it went public, but somebody got bored the DAY after I turned it on and typed in m.mtbnj.com--it wasn't even 24 hours before the cat was out of the bag 😀

Who is this Dbag? Banned!

In all seriousness there is no need for "my phone is better that yours" pissing matches going on in this thread or any of the iphone threads. The iphone has its ups and downs, and the droid does too. So lets keep it out of this thread!
 
I just copy my mp3s to a folder in the SD card and forget it. Then again I never let iTunes manage my music for me.

Yea I hear ya. But I have a fairly large music library (75 gigs) that the "genius" feature is used all the time to make playlists. It picks songs that I forgot I had.
IMO iTunes is the best music manager....just for that reason.
 
Just picked up a droid last night. Loving this thing so far, but it is freezing up on me, making me not love it so much. I have been getting a lot of App Not Responding, Force Close/Wait messages. Why?
 
Unless you use Google voice.....
AVAILABLE ON THE DROID!!!
Not on AT&T because AT&T's network cant handle it

I don't have a droid so I can't comment, but I thought google voice (dialer) effectively calls you and then connects you to the number you're calling like an operator. I was under the impression that still used "voice" to operate so using data is a no-no then? It's not a voip app like skype where the data can be piped through the data connection (on the iphone at least). Also google voice works fine on my iphone and I use it pretty frequently.
 
My GF got one this week. Love it. The digital keypad is actaully big enough that I can use it with my giant hands. I have tried 3 different iphones and I have never been able to type on them. In one hour of messing with it I had it wirelessly networked with my home PC and was watching downloaded top gear, had a GPS app that seems to do exactly what my garmin does (not sure about the HR, but I have not looked into it) and was bar code scanning food items for the calorie counter using the camera. Now im sure you can probably do the same stuff with the iphone, but I have a black berry curve, so these features were pretty cool to me. Oh and the google maps are AWESOME!

It sounds like you have a defective Droid. I've had mine since November and I think it crashed on me once since then. And I'm the king of multitasking so it's not like I haven't given it reason to freeze up.
