Verizon, Motorola unveil the Droid

Just saw a cool commercial on TV with a new phone that launches Friday the 6th.
http://news.cnet.com/8301-30686_3-10384994-266.html
It is the Google Android, suppose to kill the iPhone.

Anyone know much about this phone yet?

I kept hearing about android from google years ago, but never had a clue that it would turn into the hands of Motorola and Verizon. Interesting.

Looks like the price is right... maybe I'll go get one

Even MORE overhyped than the iPhone - and that's sayin' somethin'.

Google is getting more "corporate" than Apple or Microsoft and whoring their name out to just about anything it seems. Can't wait for the reports to come out about how Android listens for keywords and customizes the advertising and popups in your Gmail and Chrome for maximum effect.
