Verizon Droid is Here

Droid ErisIn case you have not heard, the new Verizon phone with Droid is here. What is Droid? Well, it is a cell phone operating system for phones. Just like Windows is the operating system for your home PC, Droid runs on the new Verizon cell phones. What makes Droid different is that it is created by Google. The popular search engine that most people use has been working on Droid for a few years now. The new Droid Eris is the first offering by Verizon that looks to harness the power of Google’s OS while offering a solid touch screen offering. Here are some of the features:

  • Touch screen
  • Fold-out keyboard
  • Hi-res screen
  • Multiple desktops
  • Seamless integration with Google apps like street view, navigator, etc

People are tougting this a the “Ihpone Killer”, however numerous phones before this have made the same claim and fell short. Having worked with touch screen phones from Samsung and other manufactures, I am hesitant. We will see if Droid will live up to the bold claim and hype.
