1 THE DROID : VERIZON’S TURN

What is the droid you may ask?

It’s Verizon’s new answer for AT&T’s iPhone and T-Mobile’s G1 technology. This week, Verizon drops the Droid nation-wide to expand the nation’s largest wireless carrier, as well as contribute to a mass turnaround of its manufacturer, Motorola Inc., who really hasn’t produced a big hit since the Razr phone back in 2005.

There are many new features that come equipped with the Droid. They have unveiled new mapping software (through Google) that could challenge stand-alone navigational devices, sending GPS maker Garmin’s stock plunging after last week’s announcement. It also comes with a physical keyboard and a five-mega pixel camera, which Apple Inc.’s iPhone lacks in both, the ability to run several applications at once, and so much more.

Verizon is really targeting 15-35 year olds who are highly into their gadgets for social networking, blogging and other online tasks. Now, the Droid is heavier and thicker than the iPhone, but that is because of it’s slide-out keyboard, which shouldn’t be a problem. All in all, the Droid is definitely a MUST BUY for the upcoming holiday season and should really put Verizon back on the map.
