Verizon undeniably caused the globe a tech tremor when they have launched their first Android phone last November 6—The Motorola Droid. The carrier had boasted their Iphone killer with the Android 2.0 operating system which provides expanded capabilities in managing the user’s personal information, GPS navigation and strong web features such as Google’s Android Market connection which offers about 10,000 downloadable applications. The Verizon droid phone costs $299.99 with a two year contract and 100$ mailed in rebate. If the phone will be purchased in Best Buy, the store will return the 100$ rebate on the time of purchase, generally making the customer pay for only $199.99 for the Droid phone. Verizon Wireless designed a smart plan to enable customers to fully make use of all the features that the Droid boasts—from 450 voice minutes to unlimited minutes, data plan for the web connectivity and text messaging add on.
The phone was preferred as the Tao or Sholes before, as what people are betting on before the Droid release. This phone is a flagship product of Android, Google and Verizon network. No wonder why this handset poses a deal of threat to Iphone- not only that Droid is thinner and has a slide out keyboard which iPhone doesn’t have, from the hardware standpoint, the Droid is considered much sophisticated than the iPhone. It is the fastest Android phone to date, and offers Verizon subscribers a smart experience which can rival the latest touch phones today.
