As many of you likely know, the DROID X is sold out and Best Buy doesn’t know the phones are coming until they’re actually at the dock…or coming out of the bulk boxes. I was lucky enough to get the call on my pre-order today, after waiting rather impatiently, and I have to say that this one appears to be worth the wait.

Stay tuned to DroidDog for more info on this phone, coming very soon. For the time being, send me your questions and requests on Twitter @PhoneDog_John or via text: 503-MOB-BARK. Please use the hashtag #DROIDX.

It’s been a little while since I unboxed the SE X10 Mini, and a couple of people asked if I was waiting for questions and requests. I wasn’t waiting for those (I won’t have time, sadly) but I was waiting on something…the X10 Mini Pro! This cute little guy seems like a beast in disguise. I’ve only had it open for a few hours, but I’m surprized with the versatility of such an itty-bitty thing. If you’re looking for pocket-ability, or perhaps, change-pocket-ability, this device just might suffice. The keyboard is pretty decent as well. But can you live with Android 1.6?

I view the X10’s UI the same way I view the Garminfone’s: it’s an Android base with something entirely unique and distinguishable on top, and while you can count on some familiar features, you should judge the experience as something distinct. Comparing this to other Androids – specifically vanilla flavors – doesn’t make a lot of sense. Though, I have to say that I prefer what SE has done over Garminfone’s interface. In the Mini Pro, I’m seeing fast animations, snappy response, and a lovely home screen.

Just as I was contemplating the purchase of another car dock, this one to facilitate navigation and charging with my EVO 4G, I get a box at my door loaded with car mounting options: Dashboard mounts, windshield mounts, an air conditioner vent mount, and even a complete mounting surface. Now I just have to decide which one to use because each one works with a wide variety of phones.

The company that makes these innovative and what appear to be high quality products is practically giving them away; my fave going for $19.95, which is quite a bargain over decent iPhone car mounting kits. Now I just need a lighter adapter to charge that gluttonous battery hog, the EVO 4G.

See Arkon.com for pricing and selection, and check back with DroidDog for a review or reviews.

Magenta’s flavor of the Samsung Galaxy S, which is hitting AT&T as the Captivate, Verizon as the Fascinate, and Sprint as the Epic 4G (with hardware QWERTY), is called Vibrant. And if neither of the reflective battery covers pop enough for you, that 4″ Super AMOLED display will. Vibrant indeed.

Vibrant comes with Swype, Kindle, and MobiTV apps preinstalled, as well as a Media Hub program that will allow you to “rent, buy and download your favorite TV shows and movies on your Galaxy S.” Sounds great, but the service isn’t active just yet. The phone feels feather light when compared to the EVO 4G, and the design will probably be more pleasing to females. That isn’t to say that this is a “chick fone,” just that the EVO would not look one bit awkward with a dry shaver attachment.

It will take some time with TouchWiz 3.0 before I can say yay or nay, but I do like those system toggles in the notifications drop-down menu. Now the unlock screen…that will be replaced on my device. Get your questions and requests in now, via Twitter @PhoneDog_John, or via text: 503-MOB BARK. Include the tag, #Vibrant in your message.

I’m getting two Androids with hardware keyboards this week, and I’m kinda excited about it. The Nexus One finally gave me the screen I needed to make the switch completely to virtual keyboards, but it’s nice to type without looking once in a while. I can’t say for sure that this phone will or will not enable me to do that, but the Intercept is pretty slick and I’m adjusting to the QWERTY, even though the keys are virtually flush with the surface surrounding them.

Samsung let go of their less popular Android UI adjustments from the last gen of Androids for Intercept, while holding onto those that make perfect sense. For instance, the shortcuts in the notification pull-down. This 800MHz slider has a 3″ screen and 3.2MP cam without flash, so that should give you an idea of where this one sits in Sprint’s lineup. Think Behold III, not Galaxy S. At $99.99 after $100 mail-in rebate on a new contract or eligible upgrade, it sounds to me like Intercept is priced just right for a mid-range messaging gadget. And I’m sure that we’ll see hefty discounts from retailers before long.
