11-27-2011 07:23 AMVerizon has a licensing agreement with LucasArts. They usually tag top tier devices as Droids. But in the end i'm really not sure how they choose a phone for the Droid line.

11-30-2011 04:50 PMNemo is right. Most of the high end moto phones on verizon (excluding Devour and Citrus) are DROIDs. Outside of that I don't know what constitutes the name. I'm guessing all Incredibles from HTC will have the name, but some of HTCs higher end android phones (Thunderbolt and ReZound) are not DROIDs. Same goes with Samsung, but they have the Galaxy S line.
