As I close in on my second full month with  my Droid I am generally satisfied.  I should probably make that statement more positive as with the range of functions available on the device, I can pretty much exist without other devices, such as a computer, if I so choose.  By the way, I transitioned from the Storm 1 and considered the Storm 2 but ultimately chose the Droid.  The display is top-notch and reading Tweets or internet sites are easy.  I find myself using the on-screen keyboards almost exclusively even though the Droid has a slide out physical keyboard.  The flat slide out keyboard is difficult for someone with fat fingers like me to use.  Further the on-screen keyboards are easy to use.  One thing that I miss is Poynt!  While there are location programs for the Android system, I have not found anything that works quite as well as Poynt which is available for Blackberry devices.  I can only hope that Poynt will be ported to Android.

I have encountered a two things that probably should have been identified by either Verizon, Google or Motorola.  For starters, the Droid is not recognized by 64 bit Windows.  I discovered this when attempting to move music from my 64 bit Windows machine.  Thankfully I have a networked 32 bit Windows machine and had no problems making the transfer.  However, I discovered this pretty much by myself.  I talked with both Verizon and Motorola and neither of them offered this information.  Another issue was with Tweetcaster.  I was experiencing problems with Gmail and Tweetcaster suddenly being unable to connect.  A reset to factory spec solved the problem for a short time but inevitably the problem would reoccur.  Conversations with Verizon support yielded a decision to replace the device.  Shortly after setting up the replacement device the same problem occurred.  Removing Tweetcaster solved the problem.  I am currently using Twidroid with no problem.

As noted earlier, I am happy with the Droid and truly appreciate all of it’s capability.
