sweet, good for those who just want the virtual keyboard. according to the verizon guy i talked to that has played with both, the speed between the two is not that noticeable, so it's really personal preference...

I can also confirm this. I have played with both devices and the processor is very similar the speed of both devices are pretty close to each other.

I want the MotoDroid. I could probably deal with the Eris as a substitute, but I would much rather have the bigger screen and qwerty kbd. The 5MP camera is a bonus. Hopefully this phone will be a keeper. Tired of CrackBerries and WinCE phones make me WinCE.

The Eris is reported to have a 5MP camera as well.

Yes I do believe it does but I head that it's alot work of a camera, which i'm sure can be fixed with patch releases.

Interesting. But the Moto comes with 2.0, while the Hero/Eris will have to wait for the OS to be ported over later. I think going bleeding-edge is for me. I've been an early adopter of tech for a long time, and tend to discard junk that doesn't work or doesn't meet my needs. So I pay a little more to have the latest, at least I can get under the hood and figure stuff out!

I think both phones will work out fine i just dont wanna switch all my contacts threw google to get to me email.. were the Eris will sync wit outlook has MT/Pinchzoom but runs the older OS and slower processor which i think is fine for a begginer like me. Once I get adjusted to how things work i can then maybe upgrade to bigger/better things down the road..

Heck i wont even upgrade to windows 7 why cause XP works fine for me and never had a problem with it.... Next system will def be an Apple iMac fo'sho.

Remember the Eris is Android 1.5 not 2.0. I don't know if it's a big difference.
