New Phone time!
« on: July 12, 2011, 11:30:28 PM »
My Env2 died so now I'm looking at a new phone. I have Verizon, and have settled it down to 3 options.
Casio G'Zone Commando 3G (Android 2.2 Froyo)
Motorola Droid/Milestone 3 3G (Android 2.3 Gingerbread)
OR
Wait a month and activate a RAZR and get-
Motorola Droid Bionic 4G (Android 2.3 Gingerbread)

Opinion? Personal Experience?
(Note to Apple sheep- iPhone is outdated tech and still closed source)

iphone isn't exactly outdated... (though you could say the verizon one is considering it doesn't have iOS 4.3)
only reason it is closed source is because it's apple... XD and they want better control on what is put on the market.
(btw I have an (at&t) iPhone 4 and love the thing.)

enough of that though...

I like the sound of the Motorola Droid Bionic 4G
Canon is what people argue exists on ships that don't exist.

 We are not now that strength which in old days
 Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;
 One equal temper of heroic hearts,
 Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
 To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

I actually have a 3GS and have dropped it many times with only a few minor scratches to the screen and nothing else. Surprised?  I hope you are :)

Guys, no matter what you say, it still took 4 generations to put a picture in the background...
Anyway, I'm not getting an Iphone, so if anyone can make a suggestion on the 3 options I provided, please do, If not then I will probably have to really look around for something as no one seems to have personal experience with these phones.

My brother had a Nexus One and later a Galaxy S II...each for about a week. He has had an unhappy experience with Android and returned to an iPhone both times...but the phones you have mentioned are all very recent arrivals. I doubt anyone has played around with them yet.
