Motorola Droid Is the First Android Phone from Verizon; MotoBlur Not Included!
Author: Chris1 Oct
We have referred to it as the Sholes and the Tao but it looks like the first Android phone coming from Verizon will be called the Droid. And we’ll start straight with some bad news! The Droid will be a clean Android phone with no MOTOBLUR on top of it. Sadly, and for whatever reason, someone decided that the phone shouldn’t have Motorola’s highly customized social networking interface.
Here’s what specs you can expect from the Droid:
- 3.7-inch screen
- 854×480 WVGA capacitive screen
- 5-megapixel camera
- ARM Cortex 500MHz CPU
- Facial recognition using the built-in camera
- Custom Motorola Interface/UI
- Available in black and titanium
And if you want a keyboard-less version of the Droid then you’re going to get one sometime in 2010. So what do you say? Anxious about any of these two Droid versions?

Thank god there’s no MotoBlur. Get that garbage off there. I’d rather it have a standard UI and then options to install customized UIs. But not all of us want to use this phone for social networking, so it’s better to have a standard base with options than dumping the options on there for everybody.

I was gonna get the Samsung Omnia II, but now the Motorola Droid.. Ah.. I’m melting to have this phone. I wish they would hurry up and interview it though… Does anyone know if it can taxt all 3 ways? i.e, full physical qwerty keyboard, full touch qwerty keyboard in landscape mode, and I already know about the regular touch-txt as if it were a normal phone. I asked this question on http://www.Motorola-Droid.org feel free to share your views.
