Well I am from Kansas and am new to the smartphones and to the internet. I haven't had internet since 1999. I only had it for a couple of years. So forgive any stupid questions I might ask PLEASE?

Hey everyone - Newbie from Omaha. I've had the Droid for a few weeks now. I love it, but I don't think I'm using it to its full potential yet. Here to find tips, tricks, and new ways to utilize this sweetass phone.

Hello, I currently have a Palm Centro that I am completely in love with; but considering making the switch to the Droid because it seems way to kewl. I use my Centro a lot to help keep on task: notes, calendar, reminders and notes alarms and are important and of course texting.

I am sooo unsure. I've played around a little with one, but the one big thing giving me hesitation is the virtual keyboard. I can't always open to keyboard to type/text.

So for now, I'll listen and learn, and then decide.

I have my BB Tour for sale on Craigs List/Orange County CA. I used it 6 mos (Verizon). I'm liking the Droid better. I used the Pearl first. Thought I'd never leave BB. Pics are online or contact me at 714-699-4462 if you have questions. (I have the orig box and all that goes with it including a leather clip-on case.) There are pics.

OK--I missed this at first. Read lots yesterday in the forums & FAQs. Got my Motorola Droid 12/10/09. Had been reading about it & Blackberry for about 5-6 weeks, trying to decide. Last phone was Motorola V9m/Razor 2--had a HORRIBLE time with it. Verizon replaced the phone 6 times. So I was gun shy about getting this Motorola, but really wanted a key board. So here I am. I am also a Mac person, and expect all of my technology to work all of the time. Another reason I wanted the Google platform--seems more intuitive & closer to what I know. I needed to upgrade to a 'smart' phone for work use since I am traveling more & more. So, I fell in love with my droid over the weekend; spent most of my time with it. Then, last night--my 1st actual problem: called a restaurant from home to order dinner. She could not hear me. Disconnected the Droid & looked at screen--it showed no bars of Verizon signal. I sort of blew it off. Then, this morning, driving to my first appointment; my Droid dropped 2 calls in a row, right together. I am in Atlanta--no dead spots here, and certainly not where I was. Even the tech support person said that!
Now I am really scared of a repeat like my V9m. Already went to Verizon store--they called Tech Support for me. Now I have trouble ticket out there in service land, waiting to hear back if there was some problem with the network, or just my phone. I came to the Droid forums tonight, looking to see if anybody else has reported this. Haven't seen any post about this.
I'm not looking for an answer here--just introducing myself & venting a little.

im Frank from New Orleans, Louisiana. Had a few smart phones for a couple of years. Before i got the Droid after my girl and i fell in love with it, we had each had a Palm Centro. Not a bad phone, but we need more. The Droid got our attention because of the keyboard. Big + in our book. Not to mention we HATE the iphone. I dont really know what else to say besides that i love the Droid and everything it does.

I love music, tattoos and piercings.

And im proud to be a Droid user.

Hello I just got a droid and I want to see how it works.

[sirfunbear]

I just moved from the I760 to the Droid. Big learning curve! Hopefully I'm not too much of a "troll" as one poster so eloquently put it.

Hey peeps,how's it going? My name is Hans or you can call me Drige. I got my Droid a few weeks ago and loving it! The first android device I wanted to get was the HTC Hero(saw the Euro version on youtube). I was waiting anxiously for it to come to Verizon for months. Got kinda down when I heard it was coming to Sprint, then happy when I heard it was coming to Verizon as well. And then...Droid came. At first, I didn't like the look of it. Looked too...bleh. But then I saw what it was capable of doing and I was hooked on it. I came from an LG Dare. It was an okay phone. I wanted something greater. Therefore,I got the Droid. I haven't been happier with a phone before. D: But I'm looking forward to Android 2.1 and whatever it may bring. I'm also looking forward to learning more about my Droid and know it inside and out. :]

Hello Droid Community!

I have the Motorola Droid and it is by far, the most enjoyable and amazing phone I have owned yet! I had purchased a Blackberry Storm just four months ago and thought I had arrived! I really enjoyed the Blackberry because like Droid users, there are many many websites that support and contribute and offer hacks for the Blackberry and you feel like you belong to a community of friends. Once I read up on the Droid I was convinced I was mistaken! I had yet another step to make to truly be on top! So, being the techno geek that I am I had to have a Droid! Luckily I was able to manipulate the upgrades on the phones on my account and just four months after having upgraded to the Blackberry I got my Droid. It was love at first sight. LOL

I am exicited already as I have been able to fully customize this phone and every day I learn something new about it, or I find a new program that is useful or just plain neat. I am glad I found a forum that I am comfortable with to learn even more about my Droid and that I feel I can contribute to as well. I hope to become well seasoned on here and be able to help others along the way.

Thank you all for your time! You will be seeing me here and there soon!

"Its a New Droid Order!"

-Hence the name....LOL-
