I think the Droid needs to go mainstream if you really want to see a lot more apps and accessories for so I'm ok with it going mainstream
I think you sound like an elitist whiner. What exactly is it about this phone that you think an "idiot" would have no idea how to use? Everything about the phone is pretty straight forward and simple to use. Some people are having problems with getting the right settings implemented so it works exactly how they want it but that doesn't mean they have "no idea what to do with it". Please explain.As much I want to see the droid community grow in popularity, I have to say there is a TINY part of me that doesn't want the droid to go hugely mainstream and sell massive amounts. It sort of takes a little away from the exclusivity of having such an advanced phone if every idiot is running around with one having no idea what to do with it. Us techies can feel a little cool if we are the only ones who understand enough to use this phone to its true potential.
Anyone else feel like that at all or am I just being selfish? :\

Trust me when I say that anyone reading this forum is in no danger of being collated into the "idiot" category. I am no einstein of tech myself, but I used to work a circuit city and it made me sick to see the amount of literal IDIOTS that came in and bought bleeding edge technology just to be able to say they have the most advanced or coolest stuff and actually have no idea how to use it.
What I really mean is, this forum and its people share something unique. A real interest in the technology of this phone and its capabilities, I would just like to keep the droid in the hands of people like us, and out of the hands of snobbish retards who only want it cause "its the cool thing to have" and really have no idea what it can do. Not that those people don't have a right to own the phone, but just the idea of hearing some sorority chick bragging to her friends that she has the droid and how its soooo kewwwll and junk me want to vomit, but whatever, thats my piece. I wasn't bashing anyone who isn't a tech guru or any such thing so I apologize if it came off like that, I was moreso offering up my own feelings. Cheers.
