Droid X

[TheMACHINE]

My wife called me and said my Droid X just came in....i'll let you guys know how it is. I too like the external keyboard, but i should probably try to get used to the touch screen.

[Drachen]

me too.

recently went from the touch pro to the liberty choosing form factor over input and my keyboard is sorely missed.

touch screen keyboards are a horrible way to input text imo. the voice to text works pretty well though i hafta say. sucks to hafta go back and add punctuation, spaces, capitalization, etc.. though.

You don't have to. If you say "comma" or "period" the punctuation is added.

For what it's worth, the screen on my Evo is amazing. It's tempered glass and it's extremely strong. I treated this thing with kit gloves when I first got it, but it's a tank! I hope the Droid X has a similar screen. If it does, you're going to love it.

since this is my first smartphone...i cant really tell about the screen, but it seems sturdy and strong...im loving it...although its pretty darn big.

Probably every major electronic product in history has had some kind of glaring defect.

Remember blowing into the old NES cartridges to clean them because the system wouldn't read the connectors right?

i would just shove another cartridge on top and whammo!

btw, did you buy the evo out right? i am thinking about sticking with sprint, though i don't care much for sprint but there's nothing really better out there, and just buying the evo but damn it's expensive!

Everybody had their trick to make the nes work. Perhaps ppl.will stick paper clips in the iPhone.

i would stick with sprint. verizon and att are all gonna start limiting data packages. at least sprint is unlimited. another thing is if you root the phone its even better. im too much of a coward to do my droid eris but since verizon will start limiting data tethering cant happen anymore

right, CEO's always tell the truth. Why would they skip out on the extra cash? They'll do it eventually and grandfather people in on their old plans just like AT&T did.

Matthew,
One can never say “never”, but we have no current plans to change our pricing. [He addresses a few other questions regarding the HTC EVO 4G pricing here]

Uh. What?

I'm guessing the bottom quote.

Yeah, the bottom quote. He never says that Sprint won't ever cap data usage, just that there aren't any plans to do it at the moment. In fact, he says to never say never.
