It's easy to say that this phone doesn't have "X feature" or that it's slow or what have you, but I think the Eris is going to go down as 1 of the more important phones that helped created a cult of Android.
For $100 you great a great phone, with a respectable processor, a nice 8GB card comes with it, (my partner had to pay for a 2GB card in their latest phone), upgradable to Eclair and is root-able. For that $100 currently you would get a Blackberry, (seriously why is BB still around), or the HTC Ozone that has Windows 6.1 on it.
The Eris may not be the prettiest lady at the Android ball, but it's price point and features made it a GREAT entry phone for people who wanted to see what you and I know, that the Android platform is amazing is taking off like a titan rocket.
