I love my original droid.  First phone I have missed after moving on.  My D3 is faster, but thanks to MotoBlur, it is more finicky about certain things.

I gave up on waiting for some decent hardware for Windows Phone to come out.  I got the HTC Rezound.  I've had it for almost a month.  It's been a while since I've been this excited about a new toy lol.  Google music & news, a decent web browser, a fb app that actually works...

I can't believe I lived with my ancient windows mobile 6.5 phone for 2+ years with its broken apps and crappy browser lol. 



I still feel kinda n00bish when it comes to Android.

Ill be getting a 32gb card but for now this is plenty space.I like the keyboard and dpad,wifi is fast and seems to pick up good,speaker sounds real good.reAlly my only gripe is how short the cord is.

Any must have apps?

The Droid2 has MotoBlur on it, and NOT the newer stripped down one.  I recommend a launcher replacement.

Careful, once you get bit, there is no turning back. lol
