You guys got the Hero way before we got the Droid Eris which is the exact same phone which is now over a year old now...and the Droid and its keyboard are ugly...NEXT!
Way before? It was one month.

#1: Sprint users are in the same situation as Verizon users... wondering whether these new phones are CDMA compatible. If it turns out they are, hope springs eternal.So, I have a question...I notice that everyone says Verizon is the best network out there. I'm currently with sprint (My mom pays for it all, I'm a youngin' at 18, heh.) so I'm really in the dark here about all these new devices. I know we have the Hero but I'm looking for a bit more...Well, now it seems like I have two questions, haha.
1. What's the speculation on these devices being offered by Sprint? I'd really love an Android device and I want the best I can get.
2. Is Verizon really leaps and bounds better than Sprint? Should I just try to convince my mom to drop Sprint and go to "Big Red"?
I'll definitely be disappointed if VZW doesn't get something similar. I've been holding out and if they don't get anything in 2010, that would really stink because by holding out and not getting an Eris or Droid, I'm just prolonging that painful 2 yr contract and continuing to use my crappy Q. I'm waiting till mid Jan and if nothing official comes by then, I anticipate that being my breaking point. I'm ready for a new phone.
I'm with you there except that I may pull the trigger on Droid or Eris on Dec. 31. If Passion (not Nexus) does come out for Verizon in January, I'll just exchange for it.

But in all honesty, what I know will happen is that I'll finally get what I want, then be irritated that something better will get leaked on the internet shortly after. Then I'll be stalking new articles about the new phone that won't actually come out for a long while...Technology just moves so fast that our type of people wont ever be 100% happy.
That is why when I finally get my Passion, I'm disappearing from this forum.... I won't need to know what else is out there until I need a new phone two years from now.
Yeah, I keep going back and forth between the Droid and Eris. I've hated every Motorola phone I've ever had and hate the physical keyboard on the Droid, but the HW on the Eris (mainly the processor) seems so old compared to the other phones coming out soon as well as Droid. Just imagine how obsolete the Eris will be in the next 1.5 years.
...you can type WAY faster on the keyboard when you are drunk. Seriously, not even kidding.
Sexting is in the news lately, but I haven't heard of druxting. Sounds dangerous.
Honestly, the keyboard on the Moto Droid isn't that bad once you get used to it.. at least for me. I wish the keys were raised up a bit more, but now that I've had the phone for a while I'm pretty quick on actually.
P.S. My friend and I both have Droids and have come to the same conclusion: you can type WAY faster on the keyboard when you are drunk. Seriously, not even kidding.
I can't believe you guys are getting this worked up over rumors. As soon as the Passion come out, or IF it comes out, there will be something on the horizon that will make you question that purchase. It will ALWAYS be that way in today's world of technology. Enjoy what is out NOW. I have the Droid and love it. For those who are putting it down, you obviously haven't played with it more than a couple days. I admit that a few days of messing with my phone, I wasn't that impressed. As I started personalizing it with different home skins, apps etc, I realize this phone is absolutely wicked.
In my opinion the iPhone is now a non-issue compared to this phone. Peope have gotten so use to saying "it's not an iphone" that I think they say it before even comparing phones. This phone does everything the iPhone does and more. As far as I'm concerned that phone is now playing catch up (I have owned both btw).
Some of us don't want a slider phone that has a keyboard with tiny buttons you have to push with the corner of your nail. If the keyboard was better, I would be buying a Droid tomorrow. Some of us just want a Droid equivalent without the slider = Passion.
