Motorola Droid + Froyo = A Speed Demon

[danDroid]

When you normally think about performing an OS upgrade, a performance increase is not in the same sentence. However Google is completely changing the game. With an early version of Android 2.2 Froyo running on the Droid we ran Quadrant to see where we stand. Previously our stock Droid scored 360 and overclocked to 800 mhz a score of 507. Tonight we nailed a 818 at stock speed and 2.2 Stay tuned, we'll have a special treat for you soon!

Awesome! I can't wait. Can you tell me what this represents from a real world perspective? Is everything noticeably smoother or is it just in benchmarks that you notice a jump in performance?

Also the bigger question...how did you get your hands on a MotoShadow and why aren't we all blessed with a nice hands on video of it?

Thanks!

No forget that i want to know about motodroid i can't wait am staying up whole night can't wait to hear about the news

Notice that the shadow is scoring that high with Android 2.1? It's going to steal the number one spot with Froyo!

Either
a) They got this screenshot from someone inside Google/Motorola who has a build of 2.2 on their device
b) They got this from P3Droid who has 2.2 running on his droid (But hasn't released it to the public for some reason)
c) Somehow they got their hands on a 2.2 rom.
These are my opinions of the only possible things.
