Hello! I've long been a fan of the Open Handset Alliance (OHA); since the HTC Dream was just a rumor with a vague website. The Droid Eris is my first Android headset and my first mobile experience with someone other than AT&T.
I would like to admit I am a former iPhone user and destroyer (x3), it's a very expensive habit, but I digress. I gave up my iPhone because of the restrictions, stigma, and AT&T network; one other problem larger than all three of those: iTunes.
I'm loving my Eris. When my friends ask me to make a comparison I often tell them how the iPhone does most things perfect, it if won't do it perfectly the feature isn't even available (with the exception of reception). The Eris however, has a bit more "charm". The charm I'm referring to stems from the quirks in it's everyday operation. Unlike the phone I mentioned earlier, one has to get acquainted with the Eris (I'm basically saying is there exists a steeper learning curve of idiosyncrasies).
I've owned my Eris since launch and it's been an enjoyable experience. I continue to have small problems with it, but that's why I've joined this forum. To date I've found many helpful threads, hopefully I can contribute down the road.
-Eager for the 2.1 update
