I just got the droid and I'm having some trouble with facebook. Whenever I click on 'friends' it starts to load then it says that an error occurs and makes me force quit. Does anyone know how to stop this from happening?

Dude. You're nitpicking the **** out of this thing. Most of the cons you mentioned really aren't THAT big a deal.

About I love about the Adroid 2.0 is the ability to do Google navigation with voice command. That’s sold me to the OS Android 2.0 not the device cuz eventually Tmobile will come up with the updated ota = over the air. No need to change company just cuz of the OS.

I returned the Droid and went back to the HTC Hero. I too loved the screen, speed and software but I couldn’t get past the design/hardware. For me, the Hero offers a better user experience, speed aside. There are some pretty powerful Android handsets coming out soon that I feel will satisfy my hardware, software and design requirements. I believe that the Droid’s spotlight for being the big kid on the block will be short lived. I have to admit that I wasn’t very happy with Verizon’s rate plans either regardless of the coverage.

John,
Very informative video. I’m really enjoying the content of the site. I’d like to chime in on a couple of the topics you covered. I know the keyboard gets a bad rap, but the more I use it the better I get and I’m typing almost as fast as I did on my iPhone keyboard. I was terrible on the iPhone when I first got it. I really don’t like the virtual keyboards unless they are multitouch enabled. I end up trying to type to fast and make more mistakes, but that’s just me.
I agree with you on the camera, once it does focus images look great for a phone camera. One tip I would offer is that people remember to wipe off oil from the lens. Mine gets oils on it all the time from handling it and it gives the photos a glowing look. If the lens is clean, focus good, white balance properly set the images are great.
Thanks for the video, they are well done and informative.

You can disable the autofocus on Droid to speed up the capture speed, as for the quality…
