Unfortunately the Droid HD may not have gotten the love it deserved then but I have to think that it's legacy is going to live on in a future device.
But the original post isn't ABOUT the picture and the "leak", it's just reminiscing about the Droid HD...It is news as it was leaked by rubin himself on Twitter to make it go viral. Did you even look at the phone he has? There is nothing like that in the world, yet.
Actually it's about the leak. I just saw that it looked similar to the Droid HD which was why I brought up the HD. The Droid HD was the first I recognized that concentrated on slimming the bezel. Though I used the post to throw a little love towards Motorola, the focus was what was in Andy Rubin's hand.But the original post isn't ABOUT the picture and the "leak", it's just reminiscing about the Droid HD...

If you reread your post, you only referenced the leak once, maybe twice. The majority of the post is gushing about the Droid HD. More of a blog post than a news post...Actually it's about the leak.

I suppose to some it may be blog worthy to others it's news worthy. Regardless, it's an interesting comparison highlighting the forgotten past to the recent leak. Imo, it's where it belongs; in the news and to perseverate on whether it does or doesn't is irrelevant.If you reread your post, you only referenced the leak once, maybe twice.

I'm not a fan of the board getting cluttered with off topic posts.Are we really complaining / arguing about what is or is not news?

Then he should have made the leak the main focus of his post. Instead, literally all but one sentence was talking about the Droid HD. The Droid HD isn't news. Yeah, we only have a picture, so speculate about the picture, talk about how it looks, the bezel-less nature of it, the UI, the color, the size, etc etc etc. Make the post about the picture and not the Droid HD. That would be like titling an article "FALCONS WIN SUPER BOWL", starting it off with one sentence about the Falcons winning the Super Bowl, then the other 99% of the article talking about the 72 Dolphins.Considering that the leak was literally just this picture of the phone, there's really not much else to say about it. I like that PC brought up a device that this new phone reminds him of. Created a discussion out of nothing, because other than the corner of the device, we have nothing more to discuss about this device at this point.
The news is the leak, but the leak is only the picture. No reason opinions can't be shared along with news.

"Then I was reminded of the Droid HD from back in the day. It was one of the first to look at slimming the bezel and combined with the carbon fiber back it was an awesome looking phone. Unfortunately at the time it went up against the "Next Big Thing" and lost. In a battle that was an onslaught given the specs of the Note 2 combined with the ability to be rooted (something that was important on a phone back then). One had to wonder why Motorola waited so long to release the phone. Had they released it in the spring when so many were anticipating it we could have been having a different conversation.Ummm. No
