Andy Kaiser gives two thumbs up to new Motorola Droid | Digital Bits

Andy Kaiser and I and a few more of us at i3 Business Solutions have been patiently waiting for the first smartphone based on the Google "Android" platform to hit the streets, and compete head-on with Apple's excellent iPhone.

Andy likes the iPhone. Andy really likes the new Droid from Motorola.

Read his excellent review written at his Digital Bits technology column. Here's an excerpt:

"The Droid is an excellent phone. Google, Motorola and Verizon really knocked this one out of the park. I don’t even like baseball, and I’m using a baseball euphemism. That’s how impressed I am.

As of this writing, you can visit “DroidDoes”, Verizon’s promotional site for the Droid. The site starts you off with a few blurbs about all the things the Droid does that the iPhone can’t do or doesn’t have like having a removable battery, physical keyboard, multitasking, and open app store, etc. To my knowledge, this is the first cellphone that has had the guts to directly criticize the mighty Apple iPhone.

It can criticize Apple all it wants. The Droid holds its own. Easily."

Find out why Andy likes this phone so much, as he fully describes its features and capabilities at his website AndyBrain.com.
