Motorola Droid X: Coming July, 2010
Motorola Droid X: Slimmed Down, Impressive Hardware
Motorola is close to launching two new Droid phones later this year.
According to various leaks made public across the Internet, the Droid X will be a slimmed down version of the Droid, designed without a keyboard. Pictures of the Droid X reveal that the phone will ship with an updated version of MotoBLUR, perhaps called ShadowBlur or NinjaBlur.
Android 2.1 will come installed as the Droid X’s operating system.
Looking at pictures posted across the Internet, the Droid X looks to have a high-definition touch screen that will rival the Evo 4g’s 4.3-inch touchscreen.
GadgetU.net has the details on the Droid X’s specs:
We got a early hands on with the Motorola Droid Xtreme today and wanted to give you guys some details on the specs. The build quality is very similar to what we all expect from Motorola. SOLID. The screen is awesome and the colors are much better than the Droid. Motorola did not use an AMOLED screen. Possibly the same type of IPS screen used on the Droid.

Is The Droid Incredible The Best Android Phone?
Excitement for the Droid Incredible’s launch continues to grow.
The HTC Droid Incredible is the next Android phone being released on the Verizon network.
Designed as the next high-end Android 2.1 device, the Droid Incredible is slimmer and more powerful than the incredibly successful Motorola Droid.
And even before launching this coming April 29th, 2010, the Droid Incredible has had many positive reviews:
CNET gave the Droid Incredible its Editor’s Choice award.
Engadget has declared that “the Droid Incredible is the best Android device that you can purchase in America right now. It’s better than the Droid, better than the Nexus One, and certainly beats the pants off of any previous generation handsets like the Eris, myTouch, or Cliq.”
Slashgear also believes the Droid Incredible to be the best current Android smartphone: “Strong contender as the Motorola DROID is, the Droid Incredible by HTC edges ahead by virtue of its better performing camera and Sense UI. Similarly, we’d pick the Incredible over the Nexus One”.
Droid Incredible Launch: April 29th, 2010

Google Buzz For Android Phones
Posted by admin in Droid News, Droid Tips on February 11, 2010
Google Buzz is the new socially integrated Google product that brings together multiple internet services–Picasa, Twitter, Flickr, Gmail, Google Reader, and Google Chat—on one page for the Gmail user.
Google has designed Buzz to be a direct competitor with other social platforms such as Facebook and MySpace.
While the service was only launched Wednesday, February 9th, it already counts 150+ million users as part of its social network.
Though Buzz will not overtake Facebook in popularity anytime soon, it is a pragmatic and easy service for staying in touch.
At this time, the Motorola Droid Android 2.0 powered device is one of the few smartphones able to use Buzz. Phones using older versions of Android, including the Droid Eris and upcoming Devour will soon have the capability of connecting to Buzz, as well.
With the Droid’s built in GPS, users will be able to post location-tagged messages and photos using Buzz. Of course, messaging and updating status-messages will also be available while you’re on-the-go.
