I guess I wasn't paying attention but I only heard of this over the weekend... any body got one? Got reviews?

I've heard that the phone is great hardware wise but that the software is a bit lacking, particularly the Motoblur interface.

I've been considering getting a new phone for months, and this one's got me way interested.

I went to the Verizon store the other day and looked at it, other then the phone being very large it's fuging amazing....the screen is just insane and having swype built into the OS is full of win....

I haven't seen the Droid X myself, but I have heard that it is pretty dang big. Add that to the fact it doesn't have a slide-out keyboard, and I'm most happy with my Droid. I don't need TV or an HDMI interface (currently).

being a semi-Verizon employee, I can tell that the Droid X is, by far, the best phone on the market. There is so much stuff that the Droid X has that the IPhone 4 doesn't have (and I am just basing this off of what I have heard.)

Thursday was our store's release day and we opened at 7 a.m. and sold out of them in a hour. We had 40 all together on the release day with 36 of them being from pre-orders.

So heads up if you are buying it at a Verizon store, you will have to order it if you decide to get it.

it has a TV out which I my Droid doesn't. I want that pretty badly.

Just out of curiosity, why?

Yeah, it won't be something I'll get immediately... I'll probably wait at least a few weeks...

you want the hdmi out so that you can put whatever you're looking at on your tv. it has a blockbuster app in addition to all that other stuff you love on the net biscuit.

i want this phone, but am sure a better one will be released soon. maybe with a front facing camera this time. that's the only advantage the iphone seems to have now.

Ever notice how every phone now tries desperately to be an iphone?

The iPhone set the bar pretty high initially, but with Apple's typical arrogance and the fact that they've stuck with AT&T, people want more... I like the iPhone and it's technology but I absolutely refuse to go to AT&T

      Evero?!?! Should he be on the Hot Seat

      By CRA · Posted

      Night and day difference in the front office investements.  Since Morgan has been in the FO (5 years)....4 out of 5 first round picks have been offensive players.  The one defensive pick was a corner. Expand it out to the first 2 rounds? 7 out of the 9 picks have been offensive.  That IMO is why our D sucks so bad.   You build defenses up front.   Carolina hasn't been investing there.  Ron's first 5 years? 3 of the 5 first round picks were defensive players.  Expand it all to include second rounders  7 of the 10 picks were defensive.  All front 7 players.

      I think he gets this year to show what he can do.  Last year, we had a lot of injuries. This year, we should have some players, even if we lose one or two.  It's the first preseason game.  Some of the starters weren't even in it.  There is no scheming or game planning.  Let's see how guys do when it counts. I think we have a GM that knows a thing or two about defense.  Let it play out.

      give some props to Andy Dalton

      By NorthTryon · Posted

      I was ok with the mentor aspect of keeping Dalton, but wow has he fallen off the deep end. The slow behind the WR interception was awful. I keep hearing our WRs created no separation, but on that particular play dude was wide open and Dalton couldn't get it to him with a clean pocket. Next year, we need to address the backup QB spot haaaaaard!
