Of course those apps work (it's been a while), but I'd rather overclock it myself manually knowing for sure that the app didn't make a mistake somewhere. I don't need them so I don't bother reading about them. Simple as that.
And to the OP : If your scared that the Droid 2 isn't scoring high on Quadrant, it really does not matter. People have been scoring up to the 2300-2400 range if I'm not mistaken.
Also, everybody here is saying that the Droid 2 has not been out long enough as the Droid 1. Yes, this is correct. But the truth is, the Droid 2's community support will never reach that of the Droid 1. It simply is not popular enough. With new phones coming out, the Droid 2 will soon be hitting the sales shelves, and then it will simply be gone. And you can already tell. I've been watching the Droid 1 community ever since launch date, and I can report that the Droid 1 started off with an abundance of ROM choices, unlike the Droid 2, where we are limited to like two ROMs. So truth be told, you will never reach the community of the Droid 1. People here might disagree, but most of you are blinded by your Droid 2 "fan-boy" inside.
Now, back to the point of the topic. I would get the Droid 2. I've been loving it. Also the Droid 1 will not receive the Android "gingerbread" or whatever because it will not be fast enough (RAM, etc). So just pick up the Droid 2. I actually like MotoBlur. The construction is a lot more solid but it has a few more random reboots. But who cares, your getting a better device (IMO).
