I bought a Motorola Droid on December 16, 2009, my first smartphone. The reasons I ultimately bit the bullet:
- Available on Verizon. I was never compelled to switch from Verizon, even though there were things about them I found extremely annoying, because their coverage is good and their rates are low.
- Data plan is worth the additional cost as backup Internet, especially since you can tether a Droid without too much trouble.
- The Android operating system, which is open source.
- The GPS features. I'm enamoured by location-aware computing.
I had considered waiting for some of the HTC phones that are in the horizon, but those won't be available for several months. The Droid has a beautiful screen, and even though the keyboard isn't as good as the Blackberry, I found it more compelling than touch screens.
So far, I'm pleased with the hardware. Android is another story.
