  • Verizon Motorola Droid phone review
    On Friday, November 6, Verizon released their first phones running on Google’s Android 2.0 operating system: Motorola Droid and the HTC Droid Eris phone. As I went to my local Verizon store I noticed that there were no long lines, in fact there were only two other people besides me who went in the store. Verizon has been heavily advertising this phone, as the “iPhone...

  • Droid does campaign by Verizon gives MobileCrunch a surprise
    As a part of their Droid Does campaign, Verizon recently sent MobileCrunch a surprise package. At first most of the MobileCrunch staff thought it would be an actual Droid, and it was but it wasn’t the Droid they were thinking it would be. They got an R2-D2 Droid, the one one from the Star Wars movie. I’m pretty sure Verizon got a good laugh out of this and...

    Verizon and Motorola launched their Droid Does campaign recently, and they are expected to announce details of the new Motorola Droid on October 28.

  • DroidDoes website counter gets updated
    Earlier this week, the DroidDoes.com website had a countdown timer to October 30, 2009.

I just checked the XML file again today and the date on the timer has been updated to October 28, 2009. You can see this for yourself at this link. Verizon...

  • Droid does and iPhone with jailbreak does too
    The Droid is not out yet, but the Droid does website and commercial have been up since Satuday. The commercial makes some fair points about the iPhone not having certain features, but what Verizon does not know is that most of the “i Don’t” remarks are not true for iPhone users who are jailbroken. If you don’t know what a jailbroken iPhone is,...

  • Droid release date
    Yesterday I checked the XML file on the Verizon Droid Does website and noticed that the XML file had a countdown timer to October 30,2009. I thought that this date was the Droid release date, but it looks like I was wrong. I’ve looked at web ads of the Droid, and they all say “November“. No release date for the Droid has been announced, but we know that...

  • Droid does support Adobe Flash
    One important feature that Verizon forgot to include in their Droid Does commercial is that the Droid phone does support Flash while the iPhone doesn’t! Earlier this year, Adobe announced that they will be releasing a mobile version of their Flash Player for Android, Windows Mobile, and the Palm webOS. The iPhone OS was not included in this list. The Droid will...
