I am going from one touch screen phone to another. The last touch screen I owned required pressure to scroll, so I love that the Droid requires no more than a light touch. The camera is better than the last point and shoot camera I owned, granted it was old.

I have small hands, and I find the keyboard dificult to use. The size of the keys on the keyboard are a bit claustrophobic. My previous phone had 5 rows of large keys, closer to the standard keyboard. Trying to type an email out on the keyboard is a trial in patience for me, especially if numbers are involved.

I also find the placement of the power button a little annoying. The way I hold the phone, to make it easier to type, places my pointer finger joint over the power button; on occasion I have accidentally pressed the power button in the middle of a text, email or during browers use.

With all of that being said, I do like a lot of the other features. I will most likely drop this phone if a phone of the same, or better, capabilities (all of them, I've been spoiled now) comes a long with a better keyboard.

[...] HTC Passion November 16, 2009 | Posted by Riles I’ve been following and coveting the Motorola Tao/Sholes/Droid since the first renders from Russia (spasiba tovarisch) popped up on Boy Genius Report this summer. It’s enormous “HD” screen, speedy processor, physical keyboard, Android OS and the fact that Motorola put most if not all of its eggs in this basket meant that this device was going to be something to reckon with. The release has been solid and the reviews have been pretty glowing. [...]

I love the phone's apps, design, and functionality, however I'm on my second phone and I have to return it because of such poor incoming and outgoing call quality.

Many of people on the Motorola forum just like me have had the same trouble and have been on their 2nd and 3rd phones and will have to return it as well.

I really wish it would work better.. and I hate seeing the phone go, but my friends and family are getting really annoyed at how
muffled, and static like it is.

I've had my droid for 2 weeks and today I took a hammer to my iPhone. It felt soooooo good. This thing is so much more reliable than the Apple crap. The Verizon network simply blows AT&T's network away. Thank god I've finally been liberated from the clunky iPhone. I'm sure the iGeeks will not agree, simply because they're iGeeks. Someday they'll realize that they've been Apple-screwed. I bought the droid Eris (by HTC) for my wife. She is replacing her crackberry Storm with it.

Thanks Verizon.

Hey Dustin what are you a sales guy? You post up like Vince from Sham-Wow. I'll give you credit for at least being a forward poser. Dingleberry has nothing special and AFAICT and most of the “professionals” I see using them are mostly biztoid losers who belong on “The Office” and are mostly moving paper from one side of their desk to the other. Did you even notice that this was a “Motorola Droid Review Roundup”?????
