Nexus looks comparable on this chart. The droid's hardware must smoke it.

Actually, the Nexus One beats it in the hardware department.

The Droid has a 600 mhz chip running at 550 mhz and has 256 megs of ram and 512 megs of ROM (app storage) while the Nexus One has a 1 ghz chip with 512 megs of ram and 512 megs of ROM.

The only thing the Droid really has going for it is Verizon's network (for now, the Nexus is coming to VZW in the Spring) and its physical keyboard. Until Android's software keyboard is improved, it will continue to be a handicap.

Thanks for the info. I'll just continue to wait for my upgrade until the next big thing comes out.

If the nexus one was available when I got my droid, I still would have gone with the droid. I find HTC hardware to be of a lesser quality in general, not talking specs here, just overall build quality. they just feel cheaper to me. I like the solidness of the Motorola droid, and the physical keyboard option. Obviously at some point the droid will be out done, but I don't think the nexus is it. IMHO

      No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.

      I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.

      I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
