I agree. A big reason I bought an Eris is that it has the word Droid in its name. With the attention the real Droid was (is still getting), I figured it would be popular and be supported by the maker and developers.

Turns out I was pretty right. WE're anticipating our third OTA update already, and the programming language is still pretty popular alternative to those who either don't want or can't practically get an iPhone.

The admittedly dishonest name this phone was given was a clever marketing move, illustrating that under- handed popularity often leads to well deserved notoriety.

If this phone wasn't selling well, we wouldn't have 2.1 to enjoy or look forward to, for one.
