are you getting the X because you want people to drool and gawk over your phone?

No, that's what cars and houses are for. ;)

I'm getting one because my upgrade is due, it's the hottest Android phone to date, the 4.3" screen, Google Maps GPS + Car Dock, OMAP processor, I could go on and on...

you cant show them those things while waiting in line at the movies for the newest TWILIGHT release. thats when i pull out my phone. actually im going to do this when i watch Inception. next wekeend is going to be the greatest weekend of the summer!! DROID X v INCEPTION

I work at an I.T Department for a large chemical plant here in south texas, there are 4 Android device owners (3 droids, 1 eris) and 5 iPhail 4 users! I've already put my OC'd droid running BBv0.4 P3 1.0ghz against their iPhails and fair pretty well. The FUNNY thing is that where I live AND work, THERE IS NO AT&T 3G coverage at ALL! LOLOL! I make fun of them everyday for buying a 3g phone with no 3g coverage here at ALL!!! Its like buying a ferrari, and only driving it 30mph =/

Anyways, I've already won the Droid X vs. Iphone 4 battles in every area except screen resolution but I often make fun of them for not knowing WTF a Retina display is and having it on a small screen.

I can't wait to bring my Droid X in and let it decimate their phones, especially when 2.2 comes out :D

I would never go watch a Twilight movie period, let alone wait in line to watch it. Might as well go wait in an iFail 4 line with the other zombies instead lol.

Just kidding, but I am 28 with a wife and two kids, so I guess my priorities are different. ;)

I'm getting mine because with my big mitts, bigger is very definitely better. Others drooling over the phone will be a side benefit, but will only last until the next gotta-have-it phone makes its appearance a few more months down the road. And to anyone expecting iPhone fans to drool over the X: Ain't gonna happen. Apple chauvinism is a very powerful phenomenon.
