    Where are you reading any of this? Very interested in pushing my Droid...

    Don't even try. You'll kill the processor. If it is capable of getting that high, there's no doubt it'll be EXTREMELY hot.

    It's possible. The OMAP3430 (the processor the Droid uses) is true stock clocked at 800MHz, but that drains batteries within an hour so it's completely unrealistic. The iPhone 3GS runs the same processor clocked at 613MHz. Currently, the kernel does not support pushing the processor over 550MHz. So we have to wait and see what kind of modifying people will do to the kernel.

    Dontcha' think 800MHz is a little much for a phone processor?
    We could have went with a cheaper one and had a lower price.
    No...One day there will be 2 ghz phones..... Can't wait!
