I guess I wasn't paying attention but I only heard of this over the weekend... any body got one? Got reviews?

I've heard that the phone is great hardware wise but that the software is a bit lacking, particularly the Motoblur interface.

I've been considering getting a new phone for months, and this one's got me way interested.

I went to the Verizon store the other day and looked at it, other then the phone being very large it's fuging amazing....the screen is just insane and having swype built into the OS is full of win....

I haven't seen the Droid X myself, but I have heard that it is pretty dang big. Add that to the fact it doesn't have a slide-out keyboard, and I'm most happy with my Droid. I don't need TV or an HDMI interface (currently).

being a semi-Verizon employee, I can tell that the Droid X is, by far, the best phone on the market. There is so much stuff that the Droid X has that the IPhone 4 doesn't have (and I am just basing this off of what I have heard.)

Thursday was our store's release day and we opened at 7 a.m. and sold out of them in a hour. We had 40 all together on the release day with 36 of them being from pre-orders.

So heads up if you are buying it at a Verizon store, you will have to order it if you decide to get it.

it has a TV out which I my Droid doesn't. I want that pretty badly.

Just out of curiosity, why?

Yeah, it won't be something I'll get immediately... I'll probably wait at least a few weeks...

you want the hdmi out so that you can put whatever you're looking at on your tv. it has a blockbuster app in addition to all that other stuff you love on the net biscuit.

i want this phone, but am sure a better one will be released soon. maybe with a front facing camera this time. that's the only advantage the iphone seems to have now.

Ever notice how every phone now tries desperately to be an iphone?

The iPhone set the bar pretty high initially, but with Apple's typical arrogance and the fact that they've stuck with AT&T, people want more... I like the iPhone and it's technology but I absolutely refuse to go to AT&T

      We have Dalton and possibly Plummer ATM. Neither are great options. The time to address this was in the off season when we actively chose to not bring in any real competition. Bryce played Josh Rosen level bad last year. 1st pick or not, you can't just hand the starting position to that level of QB play and be taken seriously. After the 1st 2 games he was benched and many were blaming the supporting cast, but then Dalton lit up the Raiders with the same cast. If you're willing to bench him 2 games into the season, you're openly admitting he wasn't ready to be the only option at starter.  We have no good options right now and that is a huge failure of the FO. We didn't win today because of BY, we won in spite of him. Chuba carried this team. Bryce did nothing extraordinary. He played a game you would expect to see from any backup QB in the league. If the Giants D wasn't so horrible against the run, do you think BY would have been able to put 300 yards and 3 scores on the board? I don't and that's my problem. When the game is on the line, and we saw it twice today (Coker and Chuba) he couldn't make the pass. That's a basic NFL pass. Daboll didn't respect him enough and punted away with 3 minutes on the clock and had the ball back in under a minute.  Maybe I'm wrong and BY becomes great and that would be the best thing for the team and I will happily eat crow. The worst thing is he becomes mediocre and we consider that success and stop trying to get better at the position and we live every year somewhere between 6-8 wins.

      49ers barely squeak by the Jets on a last second field goal make Saints beat the Falcons.  Crazy ass day so far
