The Motorola Droid has been pictured, detailed and rumored but we haven’t had official confirmation from either Verizon or Motorola. Lucky for those of you anxiously awaiting the device Verizon has announced that they will be holding a Droid event on October 28th, presumably to give the phone its official unveiling.

Of course, they don’t actually say that the press event is for the Droid but considering it’s a “must-have device of the year” and manufactured by Motorola, I think it’s safe to say it will be focusing on the handset.

Check back next week and we’ll let you know what went down.
