On December 31st of 2009 I got a Motorola Droid smart phone. I got the phone because I had a old Alltel phone and Verizon suggested that I get on there network so that I would get better service. Now getting the new phone did not give me better service at all at my house, but everything else about the phone is simply amazing.

At first I was a little uneasy with the phone. I have a Iphone 3g for work and it is really a nice phone. The things that I recognized right off the bat that were better was my feelings that the GPS on the Droid seemed to be much better and the wireless internet device was much more sensitive along with the better 3G coverage. After using the phone for a while I found the following things that I do love about the phone.

• The Google Navigation is Amazing
• The fact I can make it a alarm clock
• The use of Widgets with Apps
• The Fact I can get different Browsers
• The super integration with Google apps

I would suggest this phone to anyone. It really is a nice phone and has a great developers interface for it. I am excited about the opportunity to start developing Android Apps. The SDK for the OS is all in java and is very API based.

One thing that I would suggest to anyone who gets the droid is to go to BestBuy and get a ZAGG invisibleSHIELD body wrap for your phone. It makes the phone so you can’t scratch it. I love not having a stupid case on the phone and just being able to throw it in my pocket without worry. One thing to do is pay the extra $13 to get them to do the installation. It is a pain to get the wrap put on your phone and well worth the money for them to do it for you.
