Sorry for the cross-post in the Android News & Talk forum... I didn't see this one at first.
So last Friday I went out and bought a Droid Eris.
I really like the sleek interface, and I like the fact that it has 9 'home' screens vs. the Android's 3. I like some of the default HTC widgets, like the combined clock/weather.
I really don't like the battery life. It would be nice if I could consolidate my MP3 player and phone, but with crappy battery life and 8 GB of memory, the Eris doesn't cut it.
Also, when I've played with the regular Droid in the store, it seemed to load webpages faster and such. (Maybe it was my imagination.)
So, here's my conundrum: Should I eat the $35 restocking fee and pay another $100 for the Droid? Or should I keep the Eris? I'm interested in being sold on one or the other.
