The problem for us is Verizon and companies that lease it's towers went cdma. Every where else went GSM. They can keep the same phone and swap sim cards at the drop of the hat when they get tired of one company and go with another. This just isn't as easy for us. So the companies can hold us hostage and keep our phone tech down by trying to put the lockdown on our devices. Verizon finally started to wake up and allow open source devices though because of their iphone mistake.

It would be interesting to see what the phone market would be like if Verizon didn't make the stupid mistake of turning down Apple.

It's nice to see cool shit like this coming out for droid. It shows the real potential of these phones and the harm Apple could be causing the technology by not allowing full use of it's operating system.

I've been watching Droid X vids on Youtube and reading additional previews/reviews all morning...to say that I'm excited about owning one is a HUGE understatement.

I would be lying if I said the iphone 4g's screen resolution wasn't amazingly nice. Got to see one in the wild finally. HTC needs to get off their ass and outdo it already.

I guess it's not all rainbows and puppydogs in Android land:
Google puts the Android kill switch into effect, but why?

IIRC Apple has the same feature built in to the "i" devices...
