My New Droid

April 10, 2010 at 1:15 am Leave a comment

Two weeks ago, I bought a Droid. Why? I love great gadgets, but I am not a gadget freak who has to have the latest and greatest. Nevertheless, my BlackBerry is an irrelevant old model and our iPod Touch is of course phone-less and camera-less. I wanted greater social capabilities on-the-go.

The good news is it has mostly delivered.

Good: elegant integrations between functions, camera picture quality, on-screen keyboards, and the screen itself

Bad: a bit buggy, call clarity, too heavy, too easy to hit the bottom permanent buttons when screen is sideways and…

physical keyboard is a disappointment.  I am using it to type this post and just this much has taken 13 mm so far. And my thumbs are sore. A blogging machine this ain’t.

Overall, though, we’ve become inseparable because there is so much to do and explore.

My favorite apps so far are HootSuite and RoboDefense. Let me know if you have any recommendations!
