Don't forget to make an introduction thread!

Can you say not ready yet?

This is nowhere ready to compete with a windows mobile pro phone. Not even close. Typical hype.. it is a threat to an iphone but lets get real. Two days with it and I am still thinking of cancelling my vzw account.
No curser so typing this is guess work.
Cannot find apps to transition from wm6.1
Cannot find apps to manage blue tooth devices properly. Expensive stereo headset and car have no Obex controls. Cannot control phone media. Audio via bt garbled. No services via bt. Bt paired but not connected and will not connect without repairing. COME ON. Google are u serios? Did you beta test this stuff?

Have u ever heard of Ubuntu. That is the mark for non mac and non microsoft to hit.

Thed most damaging this this Pos has done to me, wasted my 600 contacts pim data. By uploading to google to sync here I lost the ability to edit my pim data locally and efficiently, wasted customer data like spouse, kids, birthdays, aniversaries, key notes and events (Like Outlook), cannot read my hundreds of notes or .pwi because there is no transition strategy in place.

I will play withit for a while and then go get my tilt.

 

Well Hello Droid Forum! I am phillybadass (originally from Philly but stationed in Texas currently). I purchased my Moto Droid two weeks ago and have been completely satisfied thus far. It does all of the basic things that I need a phone to do and am currently looking for ways to expand my needs and make the phone do more.

future droid owner

hey, I am a soon to be droid user. can't wait til I can upgrade. 3 more weeks.

 

New Droid Owner

I'm a new Motorola Droid Owner and I'm loving it. I've had Palm,Blackberry,HTC and all other sorts of smart phones. I have to say, the Droid is the best one, by far. I love this phone :icon_ bananaalthough the phone part is only about 5%).
Looking forward to exploring the forum.

 

Hello

Well, so far, I've had a Palm 650 (had it for about 4 years!) A good solid phone. I gave it to a friend and went with an HTC 6800. Worst mistake of my life! While my friend went on happily using my Palm for the next year-and-a-half, I went on using my HTC and missing my Palm terribly. I hope the Droid will make me not miss my Palm so much.

 

New to Smartphones

Hello, my name's Mike - I use the name cuskit here. Just got my MotoDroid on 11/22 and haven't looked back since! It has replaced my Palm TungstenT, my Garmin GPS, my Razr Cellphone, my P&S camera, my flashlight, my metal detector, my scanner and wondering if my wife will be next? :icon_ banana:

I'm having a ball following these forums - just too many to read in a day so I'm missing quite a few. But that's okay as the search feature here is awesome!

As a moderator on other forum sites - I'd like to point out to new posters in this particular thread that it's for self-introductions and site assistance only - not for those who need help with their phones or equipment, or understanding the software and apps. There are many threads for those particular subjects and would be easier to navigate searching if used appropriately. Just a friendly note to that effect!

Meanwhile - I'd like to say overall this is a terrific Droid Forum full of valuable information and some VERY knowledgeable people - and all very friendly to boot! I look forward to participating here and enjoying the community.

newbie

Hello everyone. I'm new at this thread thing so if I do something wrong let me know. I'm a former blackberry storm guy. I was acrually in the Verizon store to upgrade to the storm 2when I saw the moto Droid. Five min of playing with it was all it took. I was hooked. EVERYTHING about this phone is better than the storm. I learn something new on it everyday. Love my Droid. Subytom.

 

New Motorola Droid owner (formerly w/ Sprint). Looking forward to exploring all the capabilities w/ this device.

 

I thought I did, but...

Gee, I thought I did introduce myself, but I can't find it. So...

I'm 63, still working, and doing fine. I'm a truck driver, so this new Droid I plan to get this weekend will sit firmly on the windshield of my truck (just like my LGnv2 does currently). This will be my first foray into smartphones - and I can't wait. Even with the problems some folks are having, I'm confident I'll really enjoy the Droid. Plus, with everything I've been able to learn from THIS site, I'm probably light years ahead of most of the Verizon sales people I've run into -

Stuff that does concern me is how well I'll be able to see the screen in the daylight, and how easily I'll be able to make simple phone calls (using my BlueParrot headset) to many different numbers - while driving. I guess all that will come with experience as I become a "Droidian". Can't wait!

 

new to the droid, new to verizon, and new to the forum--so far i love them all and am having a great time trying to "grow" my knowledge--thanx--
