OK, people. The much anticipated and somewhat guarded “Droid” has been severely groped by BGR, and, much to our benefit, they’re into “gropin and tellin.” They’ve not too much to say just yet. However, what they did say about the device is absolutely glowing. This could be the miracle phone that brings me over to the big, red, VZW! Click on the pic to read BGR’s article and see some sweet screenies!

    The little stair dip thing at the front of the device is kind of weird. It looks like an awesome phone though. I wish And2.0 would come out on some of these newer devices coming out.

    I hope they cell the phone in europe

    sooooo...is there any way i cant unlock a cdma phone so i can use this with sprint?...looked everywhere, even though all signs point to no, maybe you know something they dont

    Howdy George... Congrats..

    Need this OS(A2.0)+Rosie on a HTC phone..lol

    Really like the idea of including a cradle/charger where the phone can be used as a clock+"multimedia station"...

    " There’s a desktop cradle/charger that will ship with the Motorola Droid that we’ve been playing around with. It turns your Droid into a “multimedia station” and displays local weather, the time, etc. "

    HTC has been quiet on the Android front for now... I hope they are saving their powder to blow both the IPhone & cannibalize it's own...

    This will, hopefully, be a great phone. BGR seems to think so, and I even heard they're kind of fanboys of the iPhone themselves.
