buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

I will post my thoughts about it vs the TP2 after working it out tomorrow.

Don't worry, it won't be one of those posts that DB's where posting after buying the EVO (I still remember the idiot posting that his TP2 seemed so obsolete & ugly now that he could barely stand to look at it)

I lOVE my NRG TP2 & that isn't going to change (I plan on keeping it), the TP2 is the best phone I have ever owned (& I've owned a ton of phones) & I will never say anything negative about it.

Would love to hear what you think...

I've had my eye on the Droid Incredible for months now :)

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

The Incredible is a pretty awesome phone.

The girl who works at the desk next to mine at work has one. The AMOLED screen is really awesome & she doesn't want a phone any bigger in size. She is really happy with the phone.

Problem i see with me getting an incredible is that i will have no need for a TP2 anymore and will probably have a lot of disappointed users for my BigMaxSense ROM.. why didn't you go with the incredible?

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

but does it stealth tether and do free hotspotting?

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

I want the biggest screen I can get & I don't care about a hardware KB.

Unlike most users, I have never really used the TP2 KB
(I use TouchPal & I love it)

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

I, like you, was a devout Touch Pal user on my TP2. Now that I am on the EVO I really miss Touch Pal and the Android version isn't nearly as good.

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

That's not really what I wanted to hear, how is it not as good??

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

I can't wait to hear what you think about the Droid X.

I have been thinking about getting an Android the last couple days (not to replace my Rhodium, but as a second phone).

I could never replace my Rhodium, I love this little guy to death. It has everthing I have ever wanted out of a phone.

Just not sure if I am gonna go to WP7 when its time (as of right now, yes I am. However, only time will tell). So, I have been lookin at my other option(s), which is basically Android (Iphone can S my D). There is always Symbian (lol), but I don't want that.

I am currently just praying that M$ don't F up 7 (to bad).

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

for a minute i thought this was gonna be an android fanboy bashing wm thread like there was when the EVO came out

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

give it time.

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

yea i know he won't do it in this thread but others probably will. but we can still hope

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

I was thinking about it too, until i found out it's locked. No android roms will work? No possibility of a MM or Big rom? I think NOT!

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

jmorton wont start trouble here. hes pretty respectful. i just meant what it would turn in to, but now that i think about it, alot of the android haters that started alot of the ruckus are now making thier own "im going to android" threads. the peace in here almost brings a tear to my eye.:---)almost.

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

I for one am SO sick and tired of the fanboyism.

There is a reason why there is Android & Windows Mobile. Each has its ups and downs, and nobody can say one is better then the other.

Granted each MIGHT be better then the other at this, that, or the other thing, but each has its uses.

I for one think both are excellent platforms and will eventually own (at least) One mobile for each OS.

Can we all PLEASE just stop the hating and all get along? So long as we are all happy with our phones then everybody wins. Enough Said.

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

I agree with you, but trust me... What you described would be a perfect world and since this world ain't perfect there's always gonna be certain individuals hatin on shit, see it happen all the time... One day its "I LOVE WinMo WOOHOOOO" than the iPhone comes out and its "I LOVE THE iPHONE WOOOHOOOO" than Android came out "WOOOHOOOO I LOVE ANDROID YAYYYYY" ongoing process, and picks up tons of bus riders on the way... God only knows what the next Mobile OS will be and what it will involve but i'm sure everyones gonna be right back on the bus "WOOOHOOOO THIS NEW OS IS SOOOO COOL DUDE" blablabla lol..

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

Sadly what you said is absolutly correct.

It even gets so bad as to be like:

"My android phone is better then yours, haha my screen is 0.1" bigger then yours"

People will always argue over the most trivial shit. I guess they just gotta feed their hungry hungry hippo (or I mean Ego).

Its a shame that we will always be a community devided as opposed to a community united (the way it should be).

Can't we all just get alone (Its a rehtorical question, as I know the answer is no).

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

I don't like being alone :evil4:

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

there's always swype... which imo works better with a capacitive display.
i used the droid x multitouch keyboard on my evo and it's pretty good. Multitouch helps a lot when typing quickly...
You will like the larger screen for typing.

edit: forgot to mention swift key... been hearing good things about it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHrTT...layer_embedded

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

My bad on the typo, however I like what you did with it. That made me LOL, hence, you get a "Thanks".

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

It probably does but I've never been able to get the hang of using it.

My NRG ROM has it & I never use it.

I will check out that swiftkey, that looks pretty slick.

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

Don't try to sugar coat it, your still a sell out! j/k :)

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

lucked out, picked up my new toy 2day!!!

you will love it John!!

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

Locked bootloader = no rooting = not getting it. The Motorola Milestone had a locked bootloader and it took 7 months to root it. And still it doesn't have full superuser control :( I might cave and get it anyways, or Incredible, or wait til Verizon launches 4G network.

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

Man, there are too many people that care about what idiots say.

So what if the fanboys are out there proclaiming their love for the hot device of the minute, if it's that annoying you should avoid reading those threads ;)

One persons opinion doesn't change the fact that you like your phone, and that TP2 is the best WM phone out there.

And yes.... it is quite sad how Motorola is holding the bootloader hostage on their Droid phones. I hopes it won't happen with all Android phones in the future. OEM software updates just can't keep up with cooks at AndroidForums and Xda. There are new roms there everyday.

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

haha, it's all good it made me lol too..!! I was in the need for a good lol too, so thanks :evil4:

Might want to read this first, before you buy one.............

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

No, they should stop making them... Plain and simple... It's one thing to brag and boast about your new toy that kicks ass and yada yada, but to come and bash on what you've had and what others are still rockin is just plain out trolling, nobody gives a shit what kinda personal issues some of these people have with their phones so it really does get annoying reading those threads "I HATE WINMO, WE'RE BREAKING UP FOR GOOD I LOVE IPHONE YAYYYY" I mean seriously I get a headache just seeing them posted, let alone reading through them... So yeah, they don't make them, I have no headache, we all have a great day...!!

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
 

It's the internet there will always be trolls. Dont Feed them!

Re: buying a DroidX tomorrow
