Countdown to Droid; Day #1

Welcome to Droid Testing, the future home of the world's greatest blogger to all things Android! That humble and modest blogger being myself; Michael English aka "ReBuke". I am a self proclaimed Android nut job that currently owns a Samsung Omnia. For those of you keeping tabs that is definitely not an android phone! Like a lot of wireless customers i too am the victim of a contract and have to wait to upgrade to the latest and greatest Android splendor!  That Verizon has to offer


Which brings us to the countdown; two months, thats how long i have to wait to upgrade. While that might not seem like much to you it seems like its taken forever to get this close and that 2 months will really shape what Android phone I choose to upgrade to. So the plan is simple; 60 days, 60 blogs. 


I scour the Android blogs daily looking to read what the latest rumors/leaked photos/specs are of whats coming soon. And I got to say its a great time to get a new phone at Verizon! The choices just seem to be getting better and better. You almost want to wait longer just to see whats around the corner, but that would be too much for my heart to take!


So whats out for Verizon now Android-wise? Well the first Android Phone for Verizon was the Droid Eris by HTC. I've had a chance to mess with this phone quite a bit as a friend of mine has one. I got to say its not a bad phone. And now with the Android 2.1 (Eclair) update for the Eris, it really is a nice mid-range phone. HTC doesn't make bad phones, hell they pretty much started the smartphone craze that grips us all today!


Well i think that about does it for day numero uno. Tomorrow my thoughts on the Motorola Droid and Devour and who knows what else. Hopefully this blog will give you a little entertainment, a little info (lots of info in the future), & a reason to read again.
